1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 It's been about 4 years since I've had my 91 grand prix and even longer since I've posted on here.

Euro Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 Yeah with $2500 you can find pretty much any w-body in some way shape or form Quote
1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 I would say either a grand prix or regal don't matter 2 or 4 door Quote
1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Al could I see pictures is the car. I live in ludington I think I'm about 3 hours from the Ohio border Quote
AL Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Well I don't have access to a computer right now but if you pm me your number I will send you pics in the morning... I still have a few things I would like to do before I sell it and I don't know how soon you want a new ride... Google search to see how far you are from Milan mich Quote
1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Pm sent al I'm 3 an half hours away from Milan Quote
jeremy Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 I would say either a grand prix or regal don't matter 2 or 4 door Fwiw: You should be able to get a 98+ gtp / gs or a 2000+ gt for $2500. Quote
1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 I find them but high miles or rust but I got until sometimei n February whenever my girlfriend gets her taxes Quote
Galaxie500XL Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Careful shopping pays off...I bought my '95 LQ1 Cutlass convertible a year and a half ago for $2600.00...even with tax and registration, the total was only $3,000.00 Quote
Night Fury Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Hell, I paid $2500 for my 2004 Comp G and all it immediately needed was tires and spark plugs. Quote
AL Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 And its leaking oil? And the supercharger coupler isn't the greatest... Am I right? I'm selling a car that needs absolutely nothing to be driven for quite a long time... The brakes are all good... Everything works like it should and its a very quite smooth riding car and I hope the next owner is very happy... I would keep it but I want to move out and I also want a truck... One of those two will happen Quote
88red4cyl Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Hell.. I paid $3800 for my 2006 Monte Carlo, and that was in 2009... Sure it had 97k miles on it, but I haven't had to do anything serious to it (a evap sensor, tires, and sometime down the road it will need the headgaskets done (the 3500 leaks externally, and every one does it just like the 3100 intake gaskets problem))... There are awesome deals out there, and just because a car is cheap doesn't mean its crappy... Quote
AL Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 You did find a very good deal on that Monte! You are correct that just cause its cheap doesn't mean its crap... I have found many good deals where the person didn't want much out of it... Heck I only paid 100 bucks for my parts car 96 grand Prix running and driving Quote
1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Posted January 11, 2011 I always find deals on Craigslist but never have the money when I do find them Quote
AL Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 I know what you mean... Lately I haven't even attempted to get on cause I know I will find something I want Quote
1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Posted January 11, 2011 I found this 2000 century http://nmi.craigslist.org/cto/2153910724.html Quote
88red4cyl Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 I found this 2000 century http://nmi.craigslist.org/cto/2153910724.html It sure looks sharp... I can't say I'd ever buy a 3100 powered W again though... When you need it to move quickly, it sure makes a lot of noise when you step on the gas, but it doesn't get up and go too well... Since the Regal and Century are essentially twins (with the Regal having the more powerful engine and better interior (IMHO floor shifter and buckets FTW)) I would try to pick up a Regal.. Around here at least, you can get a Regal GS for around that price (it may need a little bit of work or have a little higher mileage than that Century, but if you are mechanically inclined at all you can get a great deal)... Quote
1991luminaeuro3.1 Posted January 11, 2011 Author Report Posted January 11, 2011 Yeah I would rather have a regal since it has the 3800 It's time for a car with a little more power. Right now I've got a 99 malibu that I hate lol. Quote
AL Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 The 3800 definitely pulls the car a lot better than a 3100... I have driven my grandmas century a couple times and its piss slow lol plus I think some of those got 2.xx gearing which makes them even more pitifully slow... But they do get incredible mpgs Quote
