Hmm, dad drives a 2005 GTP with a 3" pulley and the spray running close to 325hp before nitrous...I dont know many girls who have that kinda getup in their car...

Soon to come, Full Borla exhaust...New-age american muscle!
 
Metrosexual car. It is a POS and the non-GTP one is a vague driver with lots of bad habits. Only thing going for it is that the screwball design division that seems to make all GM products look like the Aztek have not monkeyed with it, yet. That is why the GTO was a breath of fresh air. Too bad they have killed it.

Lemme do a rice check:

- V6, check.
- FWD, check.
- NAAAAWS, check.
- Plans to mod exhaust, check.

Did you find it in a paddy field?
 
Those bugs are surprisingly roomy, and I see more guys driving them anyway.

Run someone down with the car, it'll show whomever it wasn't so girly.

When did you get one?
 
Grand Prix's rock. I had a 95 and even tho it handled like crap, it was still a great car.

Until my Dad didn't change the transmission fluid until I did @ 100K miles and the tranny died like 20K miles later. 😱

Guess you don't know what rice is.

Rice is taking an economy car and making a bunch of visual "improvements", adding a wing, stickers, lowering it, etc, and adding a fart can muffler while not doing anything at all to the performance of the car.

You don't have to have a V8 to make your car fast. All the mods done to the car above were PERFORMANCE mods.

Definitely not rice.
 
I always thought the coupe version (do they even make those anymore?) was a little girly, but not the sedan. It's still a pretty junky, underengineered car, and one I would never ever buy, but I wouldn't call it girly.
