    So finally i got a GTP its a 2002 red four door 115k !

    story goes i had a sunfire got it last year joined this site i really liked the grand prix gtp it seemed llike a really sweet car so i sold my sunfire a month ago and looked up and down with no luck at all because used cars are so expensive at least here in ohio so today on my birthday party my dad found the gtp and next thing i know im driving it home what a great happy 21 !!!

    welcome

    the likely hood of you being pulled over for that is so small.

    I drove for over a month on expired tabs, lol

    93 is a must, my friend. it could possibly knock on regular gas and cause major problems. only run 87 if it's pure emergency.

    EDIT: premium is a must. 91 is the minimum. we have 93 here, assuming you do as well.

    Lies! Around here... you don't see any 93. All you see is 91 as the highest octane rating.

    On other note, happy birthday brother and congrats on the new ride. Now get this damn forum and tip back a couple since it's your 21st. Unless you don't drink... then.... do wax your ride.

    And smile it's Blacktooth Grin!

    We have 92 octane here for some reason, primarily at Wawa. Congrats on the Grand Prix. Had to wait 2 weeks before I could drive my Regal back when I got it cause my neighbor loaned me the extra $1500 I didn't have yet. Sat in his garage on the lift getting detailed till I gave him the $. Longest 2 weeks ever.
