Hi Everyone,
How are you Guys/Gals?
I got my hands on a used 07 spyder GS auto trans about a month ago (12,000) Miles.
Had to get a car. Was looking last Feb for a GMC Envoy I guess my wifes CR-V will still be used for pulling our little popup tailer. Gas went crazy so I looked at the pontiac g6. No trunk. the toyota drove unstable. I drove 3 of them. Drove a the GT. But picked this GS it was very clean and the 4 is better on gas. They don't have the 0-60 specs on it but from a stand still and not sifting that funky shifter thing it will do it just above 7. so it's cool. I just like to cruse with the top down.
I wanted to thank the forum because 2 lifes ago I used to repair cars and the repair manual came in handy for the door. A week ago I had to bring the car into the autobody shop after my 16 year old daughter backed my old (which is hers now) civic into my left fender. Anyway when I got it back from the body shop it looked like new but the door made a little rattle when I closed it. A day later the window controls fell in. The manual help. The door came apart very easy its also well made. there was a lot of screws loose. I think my buddy at the autobodyshop took the car on a joy ride and did a number on the door but was afraid to tell me.
Anyway Thanks Again
Brian
PS how the %$&^% do you back this car up with the top up?
Thats why everyone I looked at had scratched rims on the pasenger's side of the car.
