Since April 2000 I've been trundling around in this heap of economy we call a Crapalier. Clearly it's had it's fair share of mods over the years, but in the end it's still a J.
Put lipstick on a turd, it's still a turd right?
So anyway, say hello to the new ride.
6.0L of all-aluminum fury, in leather lined comfort, with room for the family too! Described by some as a poor man's M5? I'm perfectly ok with that. Typical of GM, to build a fantastic car, then stop building it.
14.330 @ 96.37mph
what abouit the brakes on the cav?
the problem was in the second picture LOL
jk
love the upgrade!

Well done Bill, Well done.
Pretty much the only 'New' chev I'd purchase......being poor puts a hamper on that though
Congrats!
God yes! I like it!
6.0l? How many horses under the hood if I may ask?
very nice
RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...

361 of them, to start...with 385TQ, again, to start...it only goes up from here! 2 major downfalls: auto trans, and 2.92 rear axle. I prefer stick, and shorter gearing. But hey, cruising at 130kph and the engine ticking over below 2000rpm has it's advantages!

Very nice upgrade Bill!! I never thought you'd be driving something but that cavalier lol

but in the future won't you be asking yourself it's still a pontiac? is it a nicer car? sure, no doubt about that. but comparing that to a j-body is like comparing david to goliath. i dunno, i get tired of seeing these, i updated! thread's. it's like hey i got a nicer car than 2004 offered! awesome! what happens when 2016 rolls around? gonna upgrade your car and house again?

(seriously no personal offense intended just don't understand).......

Nice upgrade!

KG, He's crying because he thinks too many people are posting up their new cars. Instead of saying "hey nice new car", he reads it out of context and whines like a bitch about it.
Congrats on the upgrade, I checked em out when they first came out at a local dealer, and definitely would love to own one.
On the other hand....you have other fingers.

maybe his priorities/life style changed and he needed something with 4 doors. who cares if he bought something that suited his needs now, maybe instead of posting something retarded dont post at all
I thought what he meant was how people like to dog their J's once they've moved on to a nicer and better car (we all mostly will move on to bigger and better things, it's called getting old). People tell me that all the time when I say I went from a J to a Mercedes, and I always feel insulted and hit them back and let them know that I loved my J and had it fixed up very very nicely.

sucks that you seem to have the same rear bumper problem I do...
The discoloring? I just assumed it was a shadow.

That doesn't look like a shadow to me.. if it was it would effect more than JUST the bumper.. wtf is up with that..
Wow, that discoloration is pretty significant. Funny, my "crapalier" never had bumper discoloration?

I really like these cars. Seems like a nice car for a little of both worlds. Roomy and four doors you can call it a family car. Yet, when you step on the gas and let everyone know you're packing a 6 liter under though they know you mean business and still young enough to kick some ass. HAHA
