• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Would you buy it again?

Been digging around the market looking for my next car since I wrecked my favorite GP.
Not sure what insurance will give me yet but that'll be my budget.
Should I get another W-body? I mean I learned a LOT about mechanics through owning that GP and now I think the 3800 is the motor I understand best. Pretty straightforward to stick with what I know, but are there better options at similar price points? I know the w body is not the best car in the world, but I really liked mine.
 


If I lived in the south with no rust issues, I'd drive one has a daily driver instead of my truck. Otherwise no, not up here in the north because they just rust away.

They are good vehicles and parts will always be cheap for them.
 
We don't use salt on the west coast so it's almost no issue. I'm thinking about getting a Bonnie right now. Not a W but pretty close.
 
Bonnevilles do have issues with the air ride system. It can be easily bypassed, but it's one more thing to worry about. But since you have lots of rust free options there, they are great options.
 
What parts from my GP would transfer over to a Bonnie? I know the motor would (bottom swap, maybe?), but what about the Camaro brakes? None of the suspension stuff will from what I can tell
