Introducing my new ride......

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)

Mmmm. Would love to get my hands on one of those. Eventually. My boss' brother has one identical to yours, and I'm always surprised at the throaty stock exhaust note....sounds awesome.

If I had to consolidate to one vehicle to do everything, it would be a Tahoe/Yukon. Just so good at so many things.

Congrats! Beautiful rig.

Thanks. I didn't have a choice with the colour. It's a 2011 with 20,000 miles. Yes those are 2015 wheels and 20" tires off a new unit that the dealer thru into the deal along with new brake rotors. He gave me the original 20" chrome wheels to use for winter tires. They are corroded so bad that the chrome is flaked off on the backside and creeping into the inside front. Worst I have ever seen for a four year old wheel. The PO must have never washed them. :ballkick:

When the sun comes out again I'll take some more pics. Dealer still owes me the second key fob....
