Hello all!!!!
Hey all,
I just bought my 99' Alero. I love it!! I am in the military stationed overseas, so I actually have a german spec Alero. Some ov the functions are outstanding, wish that "we" could get them in the states. I want to start upgrading / tuning my car, were should I start?

welcome. most people do intake and exhaust first for performance and tint and rims for appearance.

Welcome aboard! Check the International Section under the Regional Discusions area. I think there's another Germany-based member there, too.

you could start with an intake/exhaust or if you want to do cheaper mods, you can clear your headlight corners or remove the door trim of your car (just use the search button)

If you dont' mind me asking what's an Alero worth out there? I might be moving to the UK in the next couple months and I'm trying to figure out if it's worth taking it with me.

Awesome! I lived in Germany for about 7 years myself... My dad was in the Army. We were stationed in Vilseck. You've probably heard of it if you are near munich... We took a trip to Munich a couple times.

Well the Euro spec Alero (chevy alero) is worth about 7,000 Euro, so about $8,500 (mine is a 99) but the problem is no one wants to buy them b/c thee parts are to expensive, they have to shipped from the states. I can get awat with it b/c i have an american address over here (on post). So my parts are just like sending them to New York plus alittle. My suggestion is if you love it take it. Maybe we can work together to get you what you need if anything
