that turbo charged V6 can still out perform most V8's on the drag strip. And they dont make them anymore. I wouldlove to smoke me some new mustang GT's out here in the street. Its not called "Grand" for nothing.Oct 18, 2009

This is one awesome car to drive. Hit the acceleratorand listen to the sound of the turbo kick in. I t sends chills up my spine. next thing you realize is your going 30 over the speed limit. With the overdrive trans you end up with outstanding performance and great fuel economy. The only disadvantage is when car starts running bad or not at all. Its kinda tough to diagnose if you dont know where to start.Jul 14, 2009

when I first bought this car off of a mechanic, it was in perfect condition. However the performance upgrades were complicated but did create a beast of a vehicle. This car was scary FAST. It was dangerous. There were many upgrades to the Turbo, exhaust, computer programming, intercooler etc. etc. The verdict was one mean beast. NOT any car on the road at this time could get near it. It truly was like when you take off on a jet - turbo screaming and experienced building G-force. I was busy though and did not have the time to constantly "tweak" this needy car. Over time and with a small hole in the rear exhaust it lost its power. Dont get me wrong - it was still insane but was becoming finnicky - throwing codes and the odd power cutoff. I wanted this to be my superbaby and track it but the idiosynchricies became too much for my work schedule and I sold it as is for less than I paid. I figured some other person with the time to tinker with this difficult bruiser could keep it on track.Oct 17, 2008

This car is simply amazing. The best stock weekend racer. A true muscle car. 300bhp and the turbo spools are intense. This car is for sale as is. A little paint problem. Just had exhaust pipes replaced. Due to gas costs i am forced to sell this car. This is one of my favorite cars of all time.Aug 11, 2008

Very fast in the quarter mile! Easy to modify, quite car, and it's a buick.... cops usually don't suspect an "old man's car" to be the cause of two 100ft black marks and tons of tire smoke left in that intersection ;)
Starts around a 14.3 second car, and for under $2 grand you can have that in the 12's!!! (try that with ANY honda)Jul 14, 2008
