It looks like I'm in the same boat as most of you guys/gals. I'm 21, and a drive a BUICK! I know everyone that sees me in this rig thinks its my grandpa'*. Well, its not. And grandpa wouldn't do this to his car. One of the best sleepers! I do love the bonnies, just new to the fourm, and gonna finish taking a look around.

Default Bonneville owner'* age

40.
I'm 40.
My 2001 SSEi does low 14'*.
I'm installing an intercooler, HD diff W/3.43 gears, and an air box.
I run a 3.0 DUB system with Gatorbacks and Sunoco 76, 100.
I'm a systems programmer, I have manipulated my EEPROM to provide custom input.
I have a baby seat in the back for my 2 year old. It has a 5 point harness.
We EAT 5.0 Mustangs.

Nice setup! How much KR do you get with that 3.0?

Default who cares about age

I my self am 20, bought a '96 model since it was a great buy for the package and money my dad owns same only a class lower mine is SSE his is SE it doesnt make a difference who drives em cuz you still see old geezers in bemers and benzes and those hondas and maximas so there really is no old man young guy car

I Hate to say it but no. A stock Maxima (95 and up) will waste a 5.0 Mustang and keep up with an LT1 Camaro/Firebird. This is especially true if the Maxima has a five-speed. My mom has a 2000 Maxima SE. It has a 3.0 V-6 w/222 hp which is only 18 less than a SSEi and it weighs 500 lbs less than a Bonneville. This year the Maxima'* engine has been upgraded is a 3.5L with 255 hp. Those cars are super fast - NOTHING AGAINST BONNEVILLES - this is just what I experienced, so I would not race them.

Hey, yeah I'm 16 and I have a 95 Bonneville SE. I received it as a gift from my grandpa. He bought it cheap off a guy that had it breakdown on him so he fixed it up, (he'* a retired mechanic) and well then he offered it to me and now i'm in love with it. My parents just bought a 2001 GP GT last year and so I've become a really big fan of Pontiac. What surprised me the most is my car is quicker. There'* a road nearby where a 1/4 mile is marked off and I tested it and for some reason my bonneville (completely stock right now, until i get some more money) ran a faster time.

I drive a LeSabre, and I have actually gotten a nickname because of it. Because my first name is "dan" people now call me "granny dan." Everybody says I drive a granny car, but, it can actually beat about 95% of the cars in my school parking lot. (I'm 17 and love my car )
My brother is 19, and he owns a 92 Bonneville SE
Mom is 44, and owns a 1995 SSE.

Quick Reply: how old is the typical bonny owner??
