Great Large Sedan

I got this car on an impluse buy. Always wanted a Bonneville since I sold my 77. The Bonneville makes me rejoyce for whats American. It's roomy, powerful and stylish. I don't care that its FWD. I like the torquy 3800. There is also that performance axle ratio which gives it alot of off the line kick. I truly love driving this car. Took it on a 2500 miles and drove it in the mountains with the FE2 ride this car was alot of fun. My fuel economy was okay. My 3400 Impala will do better. But thats the cost you pay for performance. I am so happy with my Bonneville SLE, if I had money I would buy another one but it would be a GXP. GREAT TOURING SEDAN! Its a great sporty family sedan!

Air conditioning leaves a lot to be desired. In 95 degree weather it did not cool even when recirculatimg the inside air.

I like this car except for the price I paid for it. It is smooth driving and very comfortable on long distance driving. My 84 yr old brother-in-law finds it comfortable to ride in the back seat.

Not a good car through rain and puddles. It only has 27,000 on the odometer and the trans is shifting hard, clanking noise every now and again in front. Brakes have been fixed once and checked three times. They still squeal. Mechanic says it's the brakes they put on cars these days. Also has blind spots. Paid $22,000 and is simply not worth the money. I'm trading it in A.S.A.P

The vehicle is very stylish inside and out. It is a smooth ride and good fuel/mpg. You get alot of features for the price (memory settings between 2 drivers). It's also roomy inside and plenty of trunk space.
