    Hello everyone! New buick owner.

    I would just like to introduce myself to the turbo buick world. The problem is that I come from the hybrid honda side of things and sold the CRX for the 86 grand national that has already been modified. So as you may (will) find out, I know nothing about this kickass car that is now my new...
