Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

I just purchsed a 2005 SLE w/ 40,000 miles. What should I expect from a performance standpoint and what possible repairs should I be prepared to address?

No matter how low mile the car is, this is a very important topic: http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/fo ... c1061.html

Performance? As far as what? Stock, the car is about 8.5 sec to 60, and 1/4 mile in the very high 15's.
