So I finally decided it was time to buy a new car and get rid of the money pit. After finding out that I didn't get into Pharmacy in Stoon again, this makes me feel somewhat better. It's a 1995 V6 with a 5-speed. Now before y'all start ragging on the V6 thing, I actually WANTED V6 *GASP* lol I drove Ryan's GT enough to know that I don't want to be putting gas into a V8 until I'm done school. So here she is, completely stock besides a K&N the previous owner put in......

Just keep an eye out for white smoke. The 3.8s had head gasket problems until 99.
Nice ride.

Yup true enough change your antifreeze annually and I reccomend using the diesel antifreeze on engines with Iron blocks and aluminum heads it helps keep the ph level neutral and the gaskets seem to last longer otherwise they are awsome

Thanks guys, I was leery of buying one of this year because of the headgasket issue, but the previous owner (who was only the second owner of the car) had all the headgasket crap fixed, it was a recall I think? Plus he had a bunch of other gaskets and seals changed while they were at it. So hopefully it will be alright, but I'm watching it like a hawk anyways.

Nice ride. It's clean, definitely clean.
So any plans for the car? or are you probably going to keep her looking the way it is?

Two more cylinders, you are getting closer!

Looks nice and it's just begging for a set of Cobra R wheels to spiff it up.
