Hey guys,

New guy here from Ontario Canada, My name's Kyle...(Can ya tell from my user?

) I'm 18 and have just inherited my family's 04 Grand Prix GT2. It was basically my graduation gift from high school and which is gonna be my transportation to university.

However, my dad seriously doubts that it's going to last me long hahaha. It already has 219,000 kms ( 136,000 miles) and has got a pretty bad transmission problem. It still gets ya places, but when the tranny get's hot, if gives a pretty violent clunk everytime it changes gears. The body of it is almost in pristine condition ( No rust, despite a few minor somewhat-fixed paint chips and a gash in the from bumper, thanks to my mom). When the tranny finally dies i'm thinking about picking up a new or rebuilt one, my neighbour can get good deals on parts for me.

Here are a few pictures of my baby

And the gash....

Those are pictures from last summer, I wanna get new ones where I don't suck with the camera, will do that next time its a nice day

Cheers,
Kyle

Welcome Kyle!

Car looks good, especially for the mileage, except for that gash.

Welcome Kyle! Looks just like mine, I have almost 170000 on mine and it runs great so change out the tranny and you should have decent transportation for quite awhile.
