  • Back in the game!!

    Yep, that's right. I finally own a 60V6 again. Its been almost a year since the Beretta burned to the ground, so I have been 60V6-less that whole time. Well, not anymore. Today, I traded in my wife's Alero for a 2002 Buick Rendezvous CXL.



    Yeah, I know, not the prettiest thing, but it is actually a pretty sweet ride. Its fully loaded - leather, 3rd row seating (reason we picked it over a van), sunroof, and even AWD! I just rolled 100,000 miles on it, so I'll probably get to start doing maintenance on it right away. It was a 1 owner vehicle, and it looks like they took real good care of it.

    1 thing that strikes me as odd... It has the optional towing package, yet lacks a hitch or reciever. Wierd...

    damn its been a year since the beretta burnt. doesnt seem that long.

    was the alero a 4cyl?

    any plans for this thing besides driving it. i could see some perf mods to the engine the other people at the shopping mall will never see it coming.

      Yeah, the Alero had the Ecotec in it.

      As far as mods go, I doubt it. If I do anything to it, it will be in a long time. Would be nice to try to find that proto SC kit Chris White has awhile back, that was designed for one of these things. There is definately room in the engine bay for it!

        that SC kit would be awesome on that.

        you can save the mods for when the LIM goes. 3500 top end and a decent cam.

        that SC kit is prob more rare than the ones for the Grand am. off topic they sold the convertable GA on barret jackson today but the asshats started broadcasting like 20 cars after that lot sold.

          I was there, and am going to post a thread about the 60* cars I saw as soon as I finish uploading


          Congrats, Brad!!!
