    What do you guys think of the SSEI's?





    Found a local one with 68k Miles on it for $6k at a dealer, probably can get them lower on it.

    They offered $2500 trade in on my GTP.

    Debating on it.

    Isn't that basically the same thing in the SSEI? Same powerplant.. and 4d, personally I think the SSEI is more attractive.

    I would take the SSEI.... I want to get my wife one in the spring
    they are a more premium type vehicle and 4door vs. 4 door they have more room, more options, and look better IMO. However they are heavier and a little bit slower.

    Honestly, I say SSEI. They are bringing way big money where I live (Minnesota) and plus, I think they have a lower depreciation value. People see a GTP for sale and they just might think it was beat. They see an SSEI Bonneville and they will more than likely think otherwise.

    I like the Bonne's better than GP's. I was looking for a Bonneville but I couldn't find one in my price range. Bonnevilles seem to be a little classier than the grand prix's

    I like the interior on the ssei WAY better, but the overall look of the grand prix I like better.

    Interior looks like the same GM non-sense of the time.

    To the OP:
    I'd rock the GTP, but this about what car YOU want so this question really shouldn't be up here.

    kinda real big. but not a bad looking car by any means. youll never get it to handle real well either. not a bad trade if youre unhappy with the gtp. an L67 never-the-less and it probably wasn't beaten on

    The only way I would take a Bonneville over a GTP is if it has this front end:

    Because the one you first linked looks ugly IMO.
