Post your pics of your non-Bonneville, and If you have video footage, we want to see it. Videos must be hosted on external web space and hotlinked to PontiacBonnevilleClub.com. Also discuss mechanical problems regarding your non-bonneville (this is not another lounge, but posts don't count, random car vids not of your cars should be in the lounge)
Figured i would upload pics of my "new" car since getting rid of the bonneville, still plan on getting another bonneville someday tho, mine was just starting to rust real bad. Anyway my new car is a 1998 Aurora with 130,000 miles, runs great. Only problem ive had with it so far was the starter i had to replace, had it for almost 6 months. Got the back windows tinted 5%(i think), and put some 20" Zyoxx zx3 rims on it.

I know some of you will like these GXP rims. Picked these up on friday for $500, plan to run them in the winter. Theyre in good shape so ill wash em everyday if i have to lol.
Sorry for all the pics, kinda went overboard on the uploading.
Nice color! You probably already know, but GM destroyed their crash test machine trying to crush the Aurora. They had to bring in a crusher used in the JY to test it. Thought that was neat, destroy your test machine testing. Says a lot for the car. - BC

Looks really nice - that paint looks great and the car is really clean. My in laws had a baby blue on dark blue one a few years ago, and it was a great car for the mountains of Utah where they live, and got amazing MPG - up to 28 on the highway. Sadly, it succumbed to electrical gremlins after a few years.
I remember the commercials for them as a kid and remember seeing them for the first time, thinking how awesome and futuristic they were. A retired couple from our church bought one of the first ones - forest green with tan interior, and I remember being wowed by the cockpit-looking interior.
