New daily driver…

1998 Grand Prix GTP  
84k miles, no dings or dents, could eat off the underbody, interior is mint  
3.8 Supercharged for those that dont know.  
Fully Loaded  
Power, Leather, Heated Seats  
Sunroof  
Remote Start  
Heads Up Display  
Auto/Digital Climate Control  
Sick oem boost “gauge”

Current Mods:  
Billet Grille  
Clear Corners  
K&N Drop-In

Future Mods:  
Ebay Short Ram  
New Headlight Housings and HIDs  
Smaller Pulley (came with car)

Car handles like a cruise ship, but blows the tires off first gear and barks second! So comfortable to drive after riding around in my neon all summer. Previous owner dropped car off averaging 22mpg. I reset it and I average 18. Damn heavy foot…

Will post more pics if I ever get around to it.
