Some of you will hate it, some will love it. Regardless, it is mine, and that's all that really matters in the end. Now on to the pics.

The system was installed the day after I bought the car(paid in full with check). It is an Alpine Type-R 12'' sub with a Rockford mono amp. Stock it came with 6 speakers(at least 4 6''x9''). It's loud to say the least

Car is optioned-out. Leather, heated seats, oil pressure gauge, volt meter. It has an info center(displays different messages: tire pressure, coolant level, stuff like that.) Has a homelink system as well as on-star. Driver/passenger climate control, electronic adjustable seats, and outside temp sensor.

It's a really nice car for what I paid. Almost go stuck with an Accord EX sedan with a fucked-up trans., but dealer took it back and got this car instead.

All comments welcome. Thank you for looking

The Grand Prix SC should bolt right onto it.

I like the MCs, except for the squared off rear end and the ugly tailpipes. Other than that, it's a nice car with some getup. Those 3.8s are one of my favorite GM engines.

Does anybody have any idea how much a SC from a gtp or a supercharged monte would cost? I might actually do that in the near future if the price isnt outrageous.

Also thinking about getting some flowmaster mufflers and chrome tips to give it that throaty, rumbling sound.
