Steve should like that...

 

I got Xeroxes of the entire "Car of the Year '88" article where the Pontiac Grand Prix won :D They have all those old magazines there.

 

I also got one of the entire feature MT did on the Turbo Grand Prix, as well as 1990's developments for Pontiac, Olds, and Buick, I believe.

 

I got a shitty Xerox of a 1993 Intimidator Lumina ad. It looked sweet, but not Xeroxed, their scanner was not working properly.

it looks like a 6000/Grand AM/Grand Prix -

 

I'd buy it for the AWD stuff tho.

better than the actual A-bodies, but still ugly.. the roof line is horrific.

to me it looks exaclty like a 6000 with a gp front and rear fascia. I want to see this intimidator lumina please!!!

Posted

where did you get all these from?? Ive been trying to find old Car and Driver/Motor Trend/Road and Track from that era.

 

Looks like a 6000 with GP front/rears, and GA wheels

Holy bastardization, Batman!!! I wonder if that was really in the works or if it was one of the editor's imagination running wild?

 

Notice the B-pillar mounted door handles and the door frames that extend up into the roofline just like the W-Bodies :shock: .

 

Those wheels do bear an uncanny resemblance to 96-98 Grand Am GT wheels...

It DOES look like a bastardized Grand Am/Prix... with extended wheelbase :thumbsdown: from those pics anyways.. maybe the real car would be better..

There's an old issue of Motor Trend laying around in my house somewhere that has a road test (or a scoop or something) on the 6000 STE AWD, and they were pretty excited about it. That drawing really does look like a bizarre mix of 6000, GP, and GA! It's hideous!

Posted

I don't know if I'd call the thing hideous. I think I'd take it over a first gen four door GP anyday.

Wow, that artist sucks. What a disproportionate sedan! It has a loooong coupe front door with the ass end of an A-body tacked on.

 

How wrong they were on their predictions too. :lol:
