I've yet to see a SRT-4 on a used car lot, I guess finding buyers isn't a problem...

having owned a 94 Grand SE... and having two different college roommates buy new Grand Am's (a 2000 and a 2001 which were new at the time)... I will be hardpressed to buy/own another one unless they make some serious changes to those cars... I have NEVER seen so much plastic in one interior, and had so many problems with it!!! ARE YOU READING THIS PONTIAC?!?! What happens when all the plastic clips break that hold your plastic dash together???? Madness ensues!!!

speaking of the amount of GA's out there... let's see... we had 3 of them in one house out of 6 guys in college... 50% owned these cars... man... we were dumb...

I don't think the 70's jeep really counts... it was never at our house and it is a 70's jeep... wasn't it around 85 or so that Chrysler bought them out??

the cobra doesn't fit in there... can you say "my dad works for Ford and I get a screaming good discount"?? yeah... I hate him too

I can't say much... I have my SRT-4 now, and another roommate just bought a 1998 BMW M3... so... it was just a matter of time for us to get our "toys"... without daddy's help...
