Post your pics of your non-Bonneville, and If you have video footage, we want to see it. Videos must be hosted on external web space and hotlinked to PontiacBonnevilleClub.com. Also discuss mechanical problems regarding your non-bonneville (this is not another lounge, but posts don't count, random car vids not of your cars should be in the lounge)

Those 16 inch Iroc wheels are nice. I'll definitely give it some thought considering I do like the factory 15x7 inch Z28 wheels that are already on it.

Oh and this answer is for GoldenBullet: The engine is a 305 V8 Cross-Fire Injection. It's been bored .30 over and has a stock cam in it. it's actually pretty quick and is decent on gas mileage. I average between 18 to 20 MPG on the highway and about 16 in the city.
