Special Stock Aleros?
 

Obviously the OSV was never made and we know the final 500's, but were there any Alero's that were produced with any specialty packages in terms of mass production that either altered the appearance or driving characteristics of the car?

The only reason I ask is because the Intrigue had both the "Autobahn" package that gave it a different final drive ratio, bigger stock brakes, stiffened suspension, and a higher speed limiter with higher speed rated tires. To my knowledge, the Intrigue also had a "Precision Sport Package" which was pretty much the Autobahn package along with stability control.

It also seems the Aurora had this Autobahn package at least for its first generation.

Did the alero have anything interesting or not really beyond the FE3 suspension?

nothing really, fe3 was the sport suspension. other then that, nope.

what about the option for a Razzi kit? I've seen several of those running around...nothing for performance though..

There was one that had the model listed on craigslist a while back, it was called the SLS...there is one for sale in missouri right now

the dark blue one? My girlfriend was actually about to buy that one..

that is the exact one I was talking about...if I would have know of issues that were to come, and I had the money I would have went for it, it was a pretty good looking car at a decent price...did they sell it before she could get it or were there problems with it

she decided she didn't want to take out another loan to get it since she had just payed off her camry.

I understand that, sucks that some 16 or 17 year old prolly got it and is out using it to lumberjack electrical poles

SLS alero? Nope, try again!

Papa Rad17 :lol:

I 99% guarantee you that is what the badging on the car said and there is another member that saw the same car I did

the gold package that had gold emblems.

i have the gold package. :)

I gotta see pics cause I'm having a hard time believing it, no offense implied either.

I could put a V8 emblem on mine but that don't mean she has a v8 lol. I could also call myself "pjw" too. SLS sounds like an emblem off a jimmy/ blazer 90s pickup

I can't find any pictures but I have found a few other old adds...I also can't find any factory razzi aleros searching for that either though...I know what you are saying though

The razzi was aftermarket addition. Now I recall seeing a brand new 04 alero silver coupe when I was looking back in october 2004 that the dealer put aftermarket wheels, full razzi kit, with eibach lowering springs iirc. I liked it but that shiny Final 500 sitting in the showroom was even nicer!

The razzi kit was a dealer add on.

i found this razzi alero for sale in Illinois

http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/3457684113.html

that car fits my cost, mileage requirements...I was thinking about moving to the 3400 and it is my favorite color alero, and I wanted razzi kit...however it is way farther away than I wanted to go, and it is older than I wanted...if things don't work out with my car might have to see if someone wants to go see if it is worth the trip :coolio:

EDIT: probably not dealership equipped because it has stock front bumper either that or previously wrecked...still nice car though

Doesnt look like a bad deal...you should definitely move up to the 3400..

I like the ecotec, but all these random parts are such a pain in the ass to mess with on it, I know there is some difficult stuff to get to on the 3400, however it is a more simple motor overall...The only way I will get another ecotec right now is if it is either a super good deal, or I find a 5 speed, otherwise I won't get another until on down the road if I decide to do a major build...The 3400 provides a platform good well into the 300's hp wise before needing a new lower end, and you can't say that for the eco and that is more than enough for a street car.

3400 winnnn

There are ecos putting out over 500hp on stock or nearly stock lower ends if I remember right

gm book says that they only made 300 before blowing the motor...they recommend lower end build in the 250-275 range

how'd I miss this before :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

I was only joking about the lumberjacking poles but look what I found at insurance auction

Same here. :coolio:

I know i brought back an old thread but found it interesting to find a car that was mentioned and that it was wrecked in a similar manner to how i joked it would

that is crazy

I also have the Gold Package.. Not sure what the difference bewteen it and the regular alero's are. The gold emblems, leather, Monsoon, power everything, Wheels, fog lights anything else I' am missing?

I saw a blue 2 door alero just like that in the local junkyard. It had the full Razzi kit and the Razzi wing. Guy wants $50 per bumper cover and $35 for the spoiler. If I had a regular alero they'd be mine..

Some pics


yes another car is sitting on top of it, this yard is an adventure!

At the vert least you should get the spoiler and sell it on here...it is the hard part to find for the razzi kit... it is also the expensive part anymore

huh the razzi spoiler does look so bad from that angle

It does look wide from that angle. It was boxed in by stacks of cars everywhere. I had to use speaker wire to tie up the muffler that was hanging down from the car above it. I did get it today, overall not bad. I got the spoiler and a front visor for my wife's 02 aurora for $30.

here I am again with this thread...i guess there are multiple of those around here, here is another that is up for sale
