Hey guys....I havent been on here in FOREVER but I hit a finacial whoa much like everyone else, but managed to get out of it and would like to get back into a Solara again. Sooo...I was wondering if anyone has one for trade? What I have up for trade is a 97 Buick Regal GS. It has the following:

- Supercharged 3.8L V6
- 3.4 pressed on pulley
- Wizaired CAI
- P-log
- 3" down pipe and cat
- 180 degree thermostat
- Trans cooler
- Monte Carlo radiator strut tower braces
- GMPP front and rear STBs and sway bars
- MSP poly upper Motor mounts
- Solid trans and lower motor mount
- 12" front brake upgrade
- SSC lowering springs w/ KYB GR2 struts
- Overkill 4.2 PCM
- Trans rebuilt at 189k
- fresh oil change
- 99 Grand Prix wheels and the stock Regal wheels

With drag slicks and 114 octane race gas, the car ran a 13.20 1/4 mile at 102mph. Not too shabby. The Regal needs: an AC compressor, subframe bushings, rotors and pads, and possibly a new paint job. Would LOVE to get back to a Supercharged Solara, because I still see to this very day, my old gold supercharged solara driving around. Kinda sucks, even tho im sure my current car can take it...lol. So if anyone wants a "SLEEPER" kinda car, please let me know. I live in Enola PA.

There pretty dull as far as looks, but the amount of power you can make without spending too much is pretty amazing. I knew this was a far shot, but I figure what the hell, maybe someone will be interested.

Thank you, and your definitely right about the Solara's looks. Maybe one of these years I'll own one again. I tried CL but none are supercharged and they ask for way too much. I bought this Regal of an old man for 1500, put a little money into it and it now has around 350hp. I could easily hit 400 with a intercooler and smaller pulley, but the intercooler costs 1k.

I may post a video of how this car scoots along...
