Hey everyone. Looks like I've got an opportunity to buy my boss's wifes' 2000 intrigue. Nice car, had a lot of work done 2 years ago. White, Leather, loaded, bose.

Here's the thing with this car: Its repaired. It began life as a rental, and was wrote off due to a major frontal collision. It was gutted and completely redone with a new front clip, painted, the works. Everything looks great, and was done very well, I know and trust the shop that did all the work.

I have been around the car for a few years now, and have driven it quite a few times, it feels great and drives great also.

I bought my current delta 88 from her, she takes very good care of her vehicles.

What do you guys think? Brando, how is gas milage from your delta 88 to the intrigue?

As long as you keep the Delta 88 (or give it to me :)) it's all good! A newer vehicle is always nice, plus you'll have a DD now instead of the Delta so you can re-do the paint. :wink:

BTW, I looked up the EPA estimates for fuel consumption. The 3.5L is almost exactly the same gas mileage as our old 3.8L. :)

Yea, I love my intrigue...it has it's quirks sometimes....but overall it has been very reliable...never left me on the side of the road. The gas mileage is about the same as the delta, don't really notice a difference. Get it, you'll love it.
