those have the same motor as the grand prix GTP's right? my buddy's dad had one and it was pretty quick, saw one with some upgrades running low 13's at the track.

talk about grandma's car, my friend ran his grandpa's cadillac seville sts with the northstar V8, he he, ran 14.0's :eek: pretty good for 5000 pounds and fwd :)

What did you do to it??? stick dynamite in it? One of our family cars is a 91 si and it runs perfectly. Never had not one problem, and we put that car through complete hell. 160k miles in twelve years and still runs like it did the day we got it. Very impressive little car, Thats why I bought my 95 ex and 00 si :)

hey its ok for you sto speak your opinion but you are damn bias. but if you wanna fight about honda vs gm we could go on all day but i will tell you that a honda is by far more reliable then a buick even on it's worst day. anyway not dissing you cars power at all. but the look cmon man. who would want to run a buick regal? the only regal i would run is a grand national. damn those things are so sweet.

I paid $ 12900(Canadian) for it..
and since my airbox draws air from right behind the head light i thought it would help... turns out it doesnt... ram air has little effect on blown cars..

im not fighting... and you have a point about some GM cars... but most people will tell you buicks are built better than their pontiac/chevy brothers.. and i would agree to that having owned them all.. and my comment about honda's build quality was not fair.. my civic was built better than the J body i once owned.. certainly not better than my Regal.. but they are not in the same league..

Oh and your right.. no one wants to run me.. fear of embarassment..

Nice ride. Luxury and speed. My buddy's dad has one with a CAI, headers, exhaust, chip port and polished head, and uprgraded pulley. Any estimates on 1320 times for the car I speak of with a good driver.
