Post by Bcb577 »

Well,today I found a pristine looking 98 Pontiac Bonneville see with the 3800 in it.it has 170,000 miles on it and runs great!I'm going to change plugs wires exc.....and of course an oil change.it has leather interior,moon roof,and such a great ride.the color is kind of a dark teal,green/bluish color which is nice,New tires and it's first voyage with me at the wheel was a 15 mile drive on the freeway,it seems to be smoothest at 65 mph,

Well I just read my posts I put on the news forum,and for some unknown reason I said I bought a 98 Bonneville see,so I need to correct myself,it's a 97,I got confused because the posting on craigslist said it was a 98,but it was a mistake,all paperwork and the owners manual all say it's a 97,lol how embarrassing!

Thank you! The only issues I've noticed so far is it seems it may need a tune up,I got the car from a dealer and he didn't know much other than his shop didn't do a tune up on it so its hard to tell how long it's been since its had one,and i know I need to do an oil change,other than that she starts right up,smooth on the freeway up to about 65,mph,that's where it's happiest,I'm just in love with this thing,!
