This Cardomain page is dedicated to my NEW automotive love.
My 1996 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP.

When this car first came out in this style both me and my wife fell in love with it. But we were poor as dirt at that time and could only dream of owning one. We are now proud owners of the very exact car we always wanted. The saying that things come to those that wait is true.

I bought this car from a young fellow from Calgary. He wanted a sporty car and I wanted something less sporty. I traded my 1993 Ford Probe GT for it straight up.

I have no complaints about this car at all. It is fun to drive and be seen in. There are fewer and fewer of these cars around today so for me to find one in such near mint shape was a gift.

Looks like somebody loves their '96 GP as much as I love mine. :P I LOVE the pictures you've shot of 'Banshee'- especially the ones in the snow.

your best quarter mile is 16 sec.??? that doesnt seem right... especially putting the 3.8 sc in a lighter car. Wierd... but what size pully are you using???

great car, 3800 is a great engine. Don't listen to anyone who tells you to change the rims. Not every car can have horribly ugly 'dubs' or have their ride 'sittin on 20s'
