Got the wife a new car (no pics yet)

[spence82]

got her a 2004 Bonneville GXP in excellent condition inside and out,i did not see ant signs of body/paint work and i looked hard. she has a few scratches on the pass door and trunk but nothing i cant take care of,it has a 4.6L Northstar V-8 275hp.with a baby on the way the sunfire she had wasnt going to work yo well.its silver w/18in wheels,it has leather/suade seats,heads up display,heated seats,TC,anyway its fully loaded!it even has a air compresser in the giant trunk that i think is the coolest thing in the world,it puts out about 10lbs-10seconds but when you are in the middle of nowhere it aint gonna matter.it has little more miles than we where wanting but it is a great,solid car with a strong motor,80k miles,but i got a warranty that covers everything from the motor,A/C,to the glove box handle.we were looking for something under 15k and got it for 11k,the base price in 2004 was $35995,couldnt be happier it it.we first looked at a 2005 G6 that she loved (i think they are very cheap),and i looked it up down inside and out,clear car fax,uh no! it had overspray under the hood,paint work on the bumper,both passenger doors had been off,and a few other spots,man i broke her freaking heart,but she was way over it when we found the Bonneville down the street.i will try to get some pics sometime.

i find photobucket the easiet (imageshack is similar), just if you move or delete the pictures over there they will not remain over here, upload images and use the, IMG link below over here and you can paste it over here and see if that works

And then the thread gets the red x's for the life of the forum or anywhere you post them.

If possible, resize your pictures to 700 pixels wide and the upload them into your gallery here.

If anyone doesn't know how to resize an image then do a search on this forum using the search term EZ Thumbnails. Free software that works great, we use it for 99.9% of every photo we add to this forum. Perfect control, no distortion, no horizontal scrolling due to too large of an image.

JMO, but I think you'll be happier with the Bonneville. They seem a little better constructed/fitted than the G series. The Northstar....you'll really love. Mine gets about 27mgp on the highway and it's quiet running.
