Funny thing is I got into 3800's in a Pontiac. The B'Ville, they are tons of fun and have all the features to convince a person it's a nice car. I would have had a hard time going from 18 way power seats, all the gauges, etc etc etc plus the add on's that I did into a 97-03 GP. Seat lack of comfort etc, plus the way you sit in one is not my style. The granuick was more my tastes. Definately a bit more sleeper as well.

Bring on the sedan jokes, for every coupe lover, there's another with a garage that's too small and they have to fight the big door issue. Two doors are cool...until you realize how small parking spaces are getting.

And until you have a kid, and have to put a car-seat in the back of a coupe....UGH!

So this is for Red for the reason I can't have a clean car, good news its they are spraying the nasty **** on the roads soon to stop dust which means the cars rockers get blasted everyday to stop it rusting out might even thrown on some undercoating on them but i think it would be pointless because they would probably rust through the other side.
 


Dirt roads need full frames to be fun. Fishtail must. Kyle count your blessings, namely the proximity of your neighs! BTW them Foxs and 4ths have good bang for the buck, yep.

On doors and brand loyalty- My first 3800 car was Betty the 99GT. I did MUCH research and it was perfect. At first I sought to own a Riv but luckily research drove me back to the Pontiac, which brand I prefer anyway due to my heritage. I wanted to get to know an L36 first and I did, then stepped to the L67 when the opportunity arose. Keep in mind I drove all carbed V8s with no A/C until 09. The 3800 N/A cars have power just like smog-era 350 four barrels or earlier small V8s with 2 barrels.

I have a one car garage and don't mind the big coupe door, hell it shuts itself for me. Average size, no babies to tote. Not even a passenger seat in mine, so driver only seat heat suits me fine! I can load a set of wheels and tires inside the car if need be, too. Trunks are fairly useless whether Buick, Pontiac, coupe or sedan. But at least Pontiac offered a 3800 coupe.

Seats better in a Buick? Here again that may be a body type conflict, the same that makes one feel cramped in tight parking slots. I never need open my door all the way anywhere that I go! The first hinge detent is more than enough room. Everybody I know loves 97-03 Grand Prix seats, even the rears. All 3 of mine have the bazillion way driver's seat and leather. I like.

Did own a sedan once, bought it because I needed an indestructible tank. What a soul-killer. As far as me getting a kid ... nope. But it wasn't from a lack of trying.

Thats about all the post whole digging I can do at the moment lol
 


I have got to stop waiting so long to eat. I know it completely effs with me and I usually end up with a terrible headache. I didn't even eat all my lunch today and decided to do a bunch of other stuff before fixing dinner at 10:00.
 
That's the worst.
Actually whats worse is caffeine and nothing else in your body.. that sucks.

Yeah, that is probably a factor too. I left the shop without my Powerade and was starting to struggle a little so I grabbed my Mountain Dew and was drinking on it all afternoon. I need to take a shower, take some ibuprofen and lie down for the night.
