finally joined. got my 2000 grand prix se 3.8v6 silvermist (and first car) last june from a lady on craigslist that just so happened to live a couple blocks away from me. she was the second owner, it was a rental car i guess. i got it for an ok price and started getting to work on it. first i got brand new headlights, upgraded to bose speakers in the back deck from the yard haha, then a new sony stereo, new brakes, bracketless wiper blades, new lower control arm bushings, tranny flush and new plugs and wires. its an awesome car even though it is the base model grand prix.
