    Hi everybody. My name is Tim and a couple of weeks ago I became the proud owner of a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GT. My family has owned two 3.8's in the past, one made it to over 250,000 miles, while the other is at 201000 right now. Both were supercharged Buicks, so I thought "lets be different" and get an N/A Pontiac.

    I have really enjoyed the car the first couple of weeks I had it. My wife got into an accident and the other drivers insurance company ended up totaling it. I got the GP for 2500 and have put about 600 into it, to make it road worthy.

    It looked really rough when I first got it, but I must say now it looks pretty good. Ill post pics soon!

    I was in my office on the 3rd floor of my building. my cell phone takes good pics, just zoomed in it gets a little fuzzy. here is another.



    Well this vehicle replaced my poor Jimmy. It wasn't fast, hard on gas, but man was it reliable and had great bass.
