Most likely gonna do some mods, nothing to major though.. My BF is talking about CAI and headers, but yet..

I plan on drag racing, but again nothing serious, it's gonna be a DD for me so I don't wanna tear it up or mod it too much..

That's great you like the Pontiac, but if you're boyfriend is worth his weight in cow poop he will open the wallet up a little wider than a mid-2000s Pontiac
