Hey guys.
I was just wondering... Are our Grand Prix's rare? I mean, you just don't see many of them. Why is this? Did they just not sell alot of them? Were they not that popular? Did they not hold up? I've rarely ever seen one at a car show. I've only ever seen 1 2+2 GP and 1 85 that the kid lives by me. lol. Even in Nascar there were only a handfull of them used. What's the dilly-o? I'm not asking because I want a collectors item. I just want to know what's up. I mean, especially when they were new, they were GREAT looking cars...
BTW: Does anyone have any links or scans of any brochures or other factory stuff? I have all of the 85 Grand Prix/Bonneville stuff that come with the car in the glovebox except the brochure. The car even came with a map from 1973. lol.
Also, I just wanted to know what was up with my GP. It's optioned seeminly weird. I wanted an RPO code list to see what the car all has in terms of options. I only have a V6-er, yet the car has 5 (yes 5) Rally-II 14's, full size Rally-II spare tire (with Good-Year whitewall), vinyl Landau top, rear defroster, stuff like that. Just werid stuff to be on a cheaper V6 model. But then it has manual windows and locks, bench seat, etc.
Let's get the GP information out there!
