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)

Peter, you should definetly go get that car... and leave yours in front of my house with the keys and title in the passenger seat....

Seriously I think yours is MUCH sweeter than the other. It looks to ricey for me (but I do like the spoiler and rims).

It's not rice, just street talk. If your car can walk the walk, you're welcome to make it look like that. It may remind you of a Honda or so, but it's totally different under the hood. :)

It appears you have stuff, but not much to troubleshoot. Am I missing some sort of update?
