    Debts, savings, that sorta thing>Grand Prix. If that GXP is treating you well and you're not aching for more power, just leave her be. Sitting on a stack of money feels better than driving a modded car.
    2003 Grand Prix GTP-3.5 setup, sold it, miss it
    2002 Grand Prix GT-top swap, GT1 Cam, SD Headers, 90# springs, 42.5 injectors, 3.4 pulley - sold
    2012 Chevrolet Cruze LTZ-Summit White, 1.4Turbo
