    I'm getting frustrated with the gtp search, now im considering a bonneville. im liking the interior as its a bit different but still the same. The exterior is growing on me to.

    Now im wondering, is there any major differences between the bonne and the gp that i should be accounting for? they didnt make bonne coupes did they?

    as always thanks guys, its much appreciated

    Same drive-train as a GP/GTP depending. Bigger body = More weight. Softer suspension = smoother ride, less performance.
    Downside, no Coupes. Any problems the GP will have, a bonnie will have, GM Forum - Buick, Cadillac, Chev, Olds, GMC & Pontiac chat use to be a solid bonneville forum, Billboost37 and myself are still members there and on occasionally. They know alot about them. All in all I consider the GP a kids sporty version, the Bonnies are more of an adults comfy cruiser with the same power lol

    Dont get mad about the link to the other site, just for informational purposes

    They have a lot more room in the engine bay, nice inside, look pretty good, battery is under the rear seat making it easy for you to run power to amps ect.

    The bonnie used a N* 4.6l not the 5.3. FWIW the Truck 5.3l isnt the same engine as the 5.3 found in the impalas and the Prix and monte. (ones a iron block and heads(truck) the other has Aluminum heads
