    Yea, I've always loved these cars, this is the third one we've had in my family. My mother had a 91 GS Coupe, my grandmother had a 96 GS Sedan w/Series II, and now my cousin has this.

    Right now, he wants to keep it stock. He is going to tint the windows, and maybe do a nice sound system, and thats about it for now. Maybe later on down the road, I can talki him into doing a L67 swap or something nice like that

    I think that would be awesome in that car. For inexpensively as it could be done it would be a worthwhile upgrade.

    Im sure Ed Morad could help out with that. You could even start piecing it together so it doesnt hurt so much at one time.

    no not a SII L67 swap...a SI L67 swap... M62
    it's a 95 so it's likely a SI with the roller rocker heads (i've seen one VERY late production 95 regal with a SII build date was 8/95 and had a 3800 series II plaque on the trunklid fyi)

    he doesnt even have to remove the heads...LIM, SC accessory drive etc and throw it on! the high compression tall deck/longrod SI block with a blower is a real kick in the pants...

    I've had a few of them...91,93,94 coupe GS's. Great car and alot lighter then the later model GS's. It's to bad it's not a 96 because they come with the series II 3800. Can you say turbo kit??

    ahhh the memories my first car (grand prix is only my second car) was a 1994 regal gran sport. That car was the most comfortable thing ever. Wish I kept it just to work on and such, because I could use something to work on and not have to worry about if it broke because I really want to learn more about cars. I got the car with 84 thousand miles on it and only put about 20 thousand on it. I got rid of it because little things on it kept breaking, and well I guess expensive things on it were breaking to. I got in a car accident once because of this kid I commuted to school with told me to look for him even though he was no where near where I was and I hit this Toyota on the driver side door and it took some paint off my bumper, butleft a giant dent in her door. She didn't care though haha I got lucky her car was already beat to hell. But yea tough car, this post made me want to reminisce.
