Very much like mine cept mine is silver, the 2 door model, and has different rims
its a 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix GT
fully loaded , leather, sunroof moonroof thing what ever you call it you know it slides open etc
I love it wish i could have afforded the GTP version that supercharger is nice
very happy with the car got it in september of last year
It's awesome.
I got a 2003 Hyundai Tiburon this past July. It's dark outside right now, so no pictures, but I got this one off the 'Net. Same thing, 'cept mine's black.
I love the car.. despite all the negative connotations associated with the word 'Hyundai', the car is solidly built, fast as hell and a blast to drive.
I tried to cut and paste a pic of my car from the official website but it didn't work. My 2003 black Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS is 3 weeks old. It sure beats the shit out of what i traded up from: a 1993 pontiac grand-am.
My mom got one of these 2 weeks ago. Acura RSX Type-S (the pic is a 2004, my mom got a 2003 and it has a spoiler, same color though). Looks awesome with the black interior and titanium finish, fast as fuck too. Great sound when you take it up to 7000 rpms.
Thats a sweet ass car. My girl might be getting it next year.Quote:

sell it while it still runs dude. I have a 95 Sebring coupe (same car, branded Chrystler) and it's the worst car i've ever owned. It hit 100,000 and fell apart. Much different than pretty much any Toyota or Honda which can hit 150,000 easy. I've replaced the whole brake system, transmission, the muffler is almost rusted off but the way it's built you can't just buy a new muffler, you have to buy a whole new exhaust sytem. The engine leaks oil all over the place, the suspension is completely shot. So uh, yeah, nice car while it lasted, but by far the worst car i've ever owned. No more Daimler Chrystlers for me.Quote:

Same goes for the suspension system, needs struts or needs all new bushings sway bars control arms...etc?
Pads, Rotors and struts are all wear and tear items, any car is going to need them replaced around 100K no matter what nameplate is on it.
And who told you that the entire exhaust needs to go if you change out the muffler? Its a freaking muffler, you cut the old one out and weld a new one in.
You sound like the victim of yet another crappy Chrylser dealership (which they have many) it up until the Daimler takeover was thier biggest problem.
I'd like to point out that the 2-door Avengers and Sebrings are built on Mitsubishi platforms - using mostly Mitsu parts ( chassis suspension, engine, etc. ) so you might want to blame it on them. A few months ago I got into an auto arguement on this very board - someone brought up that their mid-80's Chevy was a big peice of crap so they weren't ever going to buy another one. The "Chevy" was a re-badged Toyota....... alot of it comes down to maintenence issues. The Toyota might last awhile - but they're also going to tell you it needs "mandatory" maintenence that includes a top-end rebuild when you bring it in for it's pre-100K service - I've seen it time and time again. Alot of it has to do with the dealers - Volvo's have mandatory engine work too, it's gonna keep the thing running longer. But I can say that I've owned a few American cars that have gone over 200K without major engine work - I maintain them and have good luck with them and I will continue to buy cars built by American companies.Quote:
