Thoughts on the Bonneville GXP?

A family member of mine is looking at getting one as his next car. Personally I've never driven one. I'm posting this for him to see others opinions of it. I love the looks of it and it seems like a good all around car.

Do it......... Bonnies are nice. Especially the GXP. If you don't care about that big *** 8 in there, go for it. Only bad thing about Pontiacs are the resale value. But if you buy it without the intent to sell as soon as you get it, it'll work out for you. Easy as hell to get parts too.

I own a 2001 - quite reliable thus far. Don't expect tons of room for passengers in the back though. In fact, the cabin is quite small for such a "large" car. Much of the room is lost to the trunk. Not sure why they would be interested in a car this big considering how fuel prices are these days...

I have an 01SSEI version. I think the back seat is rather large. The ssei is supercharge car is fast as hell. I never had any problems with the car yet.
