GM's lose their value quickly because they whore out all their vehicles to rental fleets at basement prices, flooding the market which hurts resale value, plus percieved quality isnt good on GM vehicles (and up until very recently, rightfully so)

i love GM, my dad worked at delphi for years and they make great cars. They might have there fare share of bad bunches, but thats becouse people are lazy and build things half assed at the assembly line. My car came from the Mexico assembly line and it was made rite before a holiday luckey me. i have replaced almost ever part on that car. all under warrenty of course. Thanks Gm for making up for all the lazy F's in the world. but i have gm cars that are well made and lasted well over 200,000 miles. IF you wanna bash GM the go test your luck with a good old rusty honda. My friend had a 2001 honda civic. biggest piece of crap i ever drove. the inside looked like fisher price made it. he broke two struts on that thing in 2 months driving it like a grandma. it was a manual and it only went in reverse half the time and it grinded the gears ever so often when you put it in firt. My clutch was made in italy B). thanks GM for your well built cars i love them.

well as far as I'm concered the car blew up under normal conditions. I wasn't spraying when the motor died. The week before this I took the car in complaining about valve chatter and what not. They told me it would be fine and fix itself. I then tried running a 75 shot once. The next day I was giving it full throttle in third gear and it went. I didn't even have the bottle connected to the car.

Use your brain, man, the engine had been over stressed due to the NOS, it was only a matter of time till it failed, even under normal conditions. Don't worry what goes around comes around, you'll get stupid and blow it again, try to pull the same poop and the dealer will get smart. Best case someone has tipped them off, and you won't be able to get your car till you can pay for it.

they lent you the Malibu, so you put nos on it? How are you going to explain to them when that motor blows?

And I though the Alero was theirs too?

Actually my dad and I race both our cars at Shannonville Drag during the season. We race against each other. Thats his own purge kit on his own car. He's the one who got me into modding my car in the first place.

just incase anyone was wondering, as far as I know this is what is done to the car : intake, port and polished head, stainless steel valves, lower and upper engine mounts, ignition system, built bottom end, and a vortec supercharger running 11 psi
