Thread: whats the dumbest comment someone said about your grand prix

wow that sure is a pretty car ...it loud did ur muff fall off...me no it still has stock...wow that thing is titts

People always give me really strange looks when they stop at the gas station with me and I put 93oct in it

Lol I'm glad I'm not the only one hearing dumb **** every time I go to the gas station today this dude with a 10' ss camaro compliments my exhaust and tells me nice ls1 so I tell him no these only had ls4's he says straight up dude gm never made a ls4 they only mad ls5 and ls1 motors I couldn't tell if he was serious but he explained that his LS5 motor makes 530hp stock and his exhaust added another 100 but yet this douchebag is filling up with 87 octane. After that I had to stop pumping and leave because I felt a annurism coming

"Nice Grand AM'
"Nice GTO"

"Those came turbo'd factory, right?"

"I hear those are fast"
"I thought those only came in 2 door. How much work did it take to make it a 4-door"

^That last one was about 2 weeks ago at a gas station. I told the guy, "About $2100. Had to cut the car in half, and stretch it, and then bolt on the doors from Grand AM" Dude believed me, and gave me another compliment on how good the "conversion" looked.

that wouldhave been priceless if a high school teenage chick rolled up in a 4 door gp JUST as you were saying it.

To be fair I made that mistake once. Car had gpo,s and it was low light. He had his fogs off. So by 100' I knew my mistake

Lol

ive heard the ls4 comment before, was argued with that no V8 was ever in a GP the GXP was the new GTP lol

"Geez, your powersteering is loud, you need a new pump"

Nope, just had it replaced 8000 miles ago (at 218k)

"Well, the guy who did it is a freakin moron"

Nope, hes worked on cars since 1976, everyone in my family goes to his shop

"You should have had it done at Midas"

SMH

Not many dumb comments about the GP. My aunt told me it looks like a drug runner's car though becuase of it being black with dark tint all around. :lol:

The Stealth is another story. If I told you all the stupid comments I have gotten over the last 11 years of ownership, we could be here all day.

Had a guy yelling at me "keep pulling up in the water box!" I told him its front wheel drive. He replies " whatever guy, I know they didn't make front wheel drive GTO's." My second pass he put the front wheels in the box and laughed.

this made me laugh, my uncle had a gto and its was called a grand prix all the time lol

Ive been told by corvette owners, I drive a poor man corvette, if i drove a poor man vette i would have a c5 or something.

People ask me all the time how i got GTO grills to fit on my car. - referring to my GPOs, i just laugh

I've seen a couple Grand Prix's for sale around here advertised as having the "factory turbo"

After racing a guy in a mustang (he lost) he said "Take Daddy's car home boy! It's to fast for you!"
Huh?? I'm 38 years old????

I had a guy at AutoZone try telling me my car was NOT supercharged..... I told him yea it is.. He says" I have a Monte about the same year and it has a 3.4 in it.." And I say "I have a GRAND PRIX GTP" He responds "yea but they have like the same power train and stuff" I say "-_-" I then tell him to punch it in his computer... and that if I am NOT supercharged I gotta figure out what the HELL is bolted to the top of my motor that screams like a Banshee when I hammer the gas....
