    There's just something about the placement of the rockers or plastic that goes over them on GP's. taht causes them to rust up easier. Regals don't have that there..so we are clear.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    when it makes a sound over bumps like a strut mount or spring is broken, so you limp it into work, put it in the air, only to find absolutely nothing wrong with the suspension whatsoever.

    then you put it back down. drive it out of the shop, and now it makes absolutely no noises at all......

    You ask yourself when exactly is a car considered a lemon...
    You floor it at yellow lights.

    When your more worried about your check engine light coming back on after you just fixed it, then worried about being on and getting it fixed

    dead hinge pins most likely. open the door and lift it up, watch the 2 hinges for movement.

    ....your trying to put certain parts on and then other parts go bad causing you to switch your money in other directions.

    ....your CEL light has been on since you bought it and if it goes off, then you really start to worry.

    ....you have a Gold 4 door car that nobody want's to race.

    QFT a second time!! It is unfortunate, but true. Had my new car about a year now and my GTP is still sitting under a car port waiting to go to a good, new home.
