  3. I thought you were talking about an entirely different car. A Granada here is a squarish sedan built on the fox body platform from the eighties. That like an Austin Marina right? Wit E jag IRS, WOW!

  5. Normally, I'd say mattblack, but as even my neighbours now have a mattblack SUV, I'd say... primer-grey rocks.

    What's the expected power to weight ration of this rocket gonna be ?

  6. pontiac puts out about 300bhp ,and with a bit of tuning i could expect 500bhp,and the car weighs fuck sll,so it will be quite rapid ,prob quarters in about 12 sec or less maybe
