This is currently my daily driver. I bought it in January, 2008 with 117,777 miles and I only put under 2,000 miles on it in over 2 months. It's my DD at the moment. Gets about 19mpg on each tank which includes pretty much no highway miles. I pretty much granny it around town to get the mpg. Since I just bought an old Saturn 5spd POS, I'm going to DD that once I learn stick better and sell this. After that, I'll buy a 6spd T/A when I get the cash.
It has the 3800 series II engine which is a 3.8L made by Buick. It's not the 160hp version seen in Buicks. It's a little beefier. I think it's rated at 200hp stock. One of the best engines made IMO. It has an automatic 4spd.
It's pretty much bone stock on the performance end except for exhaust and intake. It's got an SLP intake on it (kind of pricey but I bought it like that) and Magnaflow catback with dual chrome 3" tips. Aside from that, I'm not aware of any other mods. It feels a little more peppy than my other 3.8 but it had over 160,000 miles on it and definently had a clogged injector.
Interior wise, it's all stock except for the head unit I put in which is a Pioneer 4000 series. I bought it mainly for the USB port which has an extension cord going into the glove box. I put my music on an 8GB USB drive. It also does iPod control and charge. I'm debating if I want subs or not since I have all the wiring and a dual 10" box for the hatch.
Of course it's T-top'd which is an alright option since the A/C isn't 100% perfect but a PITA to take off and put on when you gotta keep shit in there.
My newest mod includes Sequential tail lights. You can see a video of it right here.
