i had a mazda 6 v6 for a rental. it was fun to beat, and has a cool interior. it had the 6spd auto with the paddles. i dont care much for the paddles and it was very slow shifting i had to hit it about 1-1.5k before red or it would hit it. plus if i was going from a bonnie the interior and the trunk are way small.

it was a couple years ago so it was likely 09-10 model. i get use to our bonnies interior and trunk which is what we take shopping and when we have others with us and everything else seems small. but it you dont do that then it doesnt matter. thats why i always had wbody coupes for my drivers because im always in it by myself.

We take the Mazda 3 shopping. It'* a hatchback, and with the rear seats folded down it has way more capacity than the Bonneville.

We looked a the Mazda 3 a while ago, we really liked them. The one concern, and it was a big one, was that miles per gallon was not good when compared to other cars of the same size. The Bonneville SSEi and the Mazda 3 with optional engine were pretty close in MPG.

I went and looked at this GTP today. It was rusted out really bad. To the point where I wouldn't feel safe driving it.
1992 Pontiac Grand Prix, low price, nice interior, come take it for a spin!!!
The pictures made it look promising, cause I didn't see any rust on the body. The ground effects does a really good job at hiding all the major rust. When I saw this car in person it looked way worse than the pictures.

its a 21 year old car with a bunch of miles, i dont know how that price could be low. and those engines are worse than the nstars for reliability.

I saw a white VR sedan at the gas station today. I talked to the owner and he said he is the second owner and he has owned the car since 91. The car was kind rusty, and needed work. I offered him cash on the spot. I thought he would take it, but he wouldn't sell. I offered a bit more and still no. I guess I'm still on the hunt for one of these rare cars.

You ever wonder if any GM engineers are sitting around thinking, "WTF was I thinking when I designed that car?!"
I know I would be after seeing that wagon.
