This was a project car from gm awhile ago. I love the car and the concept. The only things that hurt it are the cost of getting it and the gas mileage. Anyone ever thought about making an all-wheel drive third-gen? How hard would it be to make? Too cost prohibitive, maybe? For us daily drivers, that would be sweet. By the way, you know what would make that grand prix even sweeter? A manual transmission.

old, maybe but.....

maybe so but i quote
When we saw the Grand Prix G8 at SEMA last year, we thought "cool, but it will never see the light of day." Boy, were we amazed when it turned up at the '01 Toys Test.
from popular hot rodding so i suppose gm is still toying with the idea.
