lol shut up with ur quality GTP ..ik i have a lemon..i just gotta get out from under it now and thats proving harder than it should be

[mvp2765]

dude, i feel like i've spent more money fixing things that break than what i originally paid for the car 7 years ago.. grand prix's are money pits.

Exhaust is generally mild steel... it rusts.

Get a Regal. Had mine for 2 years and the only thing I've had to replace is the front hub and I beat my car senseless.

[DaytonaGTP]

doesnt matter what car it is. sometimes you get a lemon. sometimes you get a freak. i havent had to do anything to my gp and i drive it like a 16 year old. ive also driven a 96 chevy truck that crapped out at 112k miles and i know for a fact that the vortecs were almost invincible so i ended up with a lemon. dont let one bad experience ruin it for you.

[99prixgt]

its a lemon because of an exhaust leak?

[Dragonblaze]

no its a lemon cuz of everything..the body,the motor,the exhaust..to fix EVERYTHING on it,it would cost wayyyy more than the cars worth,sooo in my mind its freakin lemon.

[zildjian102]

dragonblaze where in pa are you from

[noreasonwhyy]

the exhaust is probably one of your flanges rusting, causing a leak. it probably rusted all the way through. my guess is right before the res.

im from springgrove,PA..why u ask?

nope unfortunetly,when i bought the car it didnt have a res on it,just a strait pipe and it was broke after that flange so i went and bought a res and had it installed so that parts fine..its up near the manifold were the noise it.

[BillBoost37]

You bought a pos. It's nto the car's fault. Overall it rolled off the line the same as every other car. The caring and feeding of a car over years and where it's parked/treated has a lot to do with it.

Factory exhaust has a high stainless content which is why it lasts a long time. Once that was cut and mild steel was welded in...it was a matter of a couple of years before it rusted through. Don't blame the car for the abuse the previous dickbag gave it blame the dickbag. Then ask yourself if you could have looked it over better and made a better decision.

Meanwhile...back to your rant.

[zildjian102]

i was just wondering.. for some reason i thought u lived in scranton lol im thinkin of somebody else i guess

[izup69]

I can tell you what it is. I have a 06 and mine did the same thing. It is the flex pipe right where it connects to your manifold and starts heading south its a pain in the ass to figure out where it is. I looked for like 2 days trying to find the hole in mine. Ended up being about a half in. wide tear in the flex pipe. I just replaced my hole dp but you can just have them weld it up shouldn't cost a hole lot. Don't feel bad I have a lemon too 4 tranys so far plus sway-bars ball-joints hub bearings I could go on for days lol. Jack it up and look at your flex pipe you will prolly find your hole.

How do you go through 4 transmissions on a damn near stock car?

[chamberlain198437]

Well you can always take a lemon and make lemonade, that way all of the girls on your block can get a taste. In our case the girls would be Honda's, and the lemonade would be what the kid's pants in the Honda's look like after you go blowing by them while there on it!!!
