    Hi guys. I just recently traded in my 2000 impala and got a 2005 grand prix. I fell in love with the car the first test drive I ever did. Everything is so much smoother than in the impala.

    While I'm not going to do a top end swap (although I would like too, this is the family car) there are going to be small upgrades to the GP to squeeze just a bit more power out. I've been hanging around the fringes of this site for a couple weeks and finally decided to join.

    Welcome!

    Just because its a family car doesn't mean you can't topswap it.

    Tell it to her like this...

    What if there is a zobie apocalypse and the zombies have super fast running powers, would you rather have your family be in the slow stock car, just like the neighbors and get eaten and zombiefied, or would you rather get away... I would rather get away.

    You have a very valid point sir. A very valid one... She says I can do it if I'm not spending ridiculous amounts of money on it. But it will still have to wait until I get out of the Marines just cuz we don't have the money.
