J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 06:20 PM

Since we have had 2 feet of snow in the last 3 days, my roomates and I have got a new game. I thought I'd share it....

Name That Car!!

Ok, so what's the make,model and year?
bonus:most common engine?

*1FaastC10* · 01-13-2003, 06:22 PM

Pontiac Lemans, dont know and dont care what the engines are/were, sorry.

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 06:29 PM

nope wrong... sorry!

87 STEPPER · 01-13-2003, 06:53 PM

A red one with a crappy little 4 banger and that is a correct answer

oh this is one of those crappy Canadian things! like the Acadian and the Beautmont... crap, should've looked at your signature, and i would've thought of that. is it at least a Pontiac?

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:15 PM

yup, Pontiac. Not a 4 banger though! its a 2.8L V6
we have the lemans here too!

More guesses??

btw: it is a total piece of crap. The landlord just left it in my driveway one day and told me to rebuild the engine. I told him to eat his hat.

ElGracho · 01-13-2003, 07:16 PM

Pontiac Sunbird. About 1989 or so. Some had turbo 4, some 2.8 v6 but mostly 2.5 I4.

LOHRTBT · 01-13-2003, 07:16 PM

pontiac 6000???

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:18 PM

Nope, right year though!

Recap: 1989 Pontiac ????? with 2.6L

Hint: 4 doors

LOHRTBT · 01-13-2003, 07:20 PM

ElGracho · 01-13-2003, 07:27 PM

Grand Am?

ElGracho · 01-13-2003, 07:28 PM

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:40 PM

ElGracho · 01-13-2003, 07:43 PM

Grand Prix.

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:44 PM

ElGracho: I had forgotten how lame those things were! 70hp@5500 HAHAHA!!!! thats with a turbo!!!! that wouldn't be enough to accelerate with a full tank of gas if it was in our trucks

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:45 PM

nope not g/p either! Keep searching the web dude!!

ElGracho · 01-13-2003, 07:49 PM

Well, that's no Firebird or Trans Am and we've listed every other model of Pontiac from 1989, at least those sold in the US. If this turns out to be some lame Canada only model, I'm going to be pissed. What is it?

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:52 PM

Its a 1989 Pontiac Tempest 4door, with a 2.8L V6

I checked with a friend in OK and she told me that she knew what it was & there are some around in the US.

ElGracho · 01-13-2003, 07:56 PM

ok, you got me. I have seen them before, even worked on a few back in my grease money days. Yeah, I'm surprised they haven't all been crushed by now. They were crap if I remember. Yet another car I DON'T want. I'll keep my trucks.

LOHRTBT · 01-13-2003, 07:57 PM

Yeah....they changed over to the 6000 nameplate in the states by then .

Same car.

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:59 PM
