I bought this for my 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue. It looks good than other Air filters. But the only problem is it's hard to install it. The edge of this air filter is harder than others. When I tried to replace the old one, I had to remove the hose of the air box. Anyway, after successfully installing, I can feel the difference between this one and the regular one. It's worth buying.

GREAT PRICE,SAME FILTER AS THE HIGHER PRICED ONES,INSTALLED EASY AND COULD NOT BEAT THE PRICE.

And what I mean by that: While this peticular panel filter actually Is the measurement that Amazon lists on the web page--and, fits my '02 Pontiac Grand Prix as stated, But , I want to get a round filter to fit my big block '65 440 coronet, which sports a 14" after market air cleaner housing,so you can't just enter "make sure of vehicle fit" helper on the page... I scanned through all of the round filters, paying close attention to the "Dimensions" listed on ALL of them..., I ordered one claiming to be "14.3 x 5.8 x 14.4" What I received was waaaay off from that...It was like 7" x 2.5" Yet, in the "correct" box with the correct part number...Called it in,shipped it back, and tried again,same part number...same thing came again, proving it was not "wrong filter in wrong box"... Can't get any info from "[...]" on correct sizes either.... annoying, for sure. I wonder where Amazon gets the info they state---Bottom line, "CUSTOM FIT" PEOPLE, BEWARE

I can't believe the difference in my cars performance, gas mileage, now when I get on it, you can hear the difference I have a 06 Buick Rendezous ,I was getting about 19MPG now I'm getting 24MPG {Awesome}!!! I also have a 01 Buick Regal LS the air filter was about 6 months old, it was chocking my engine to death,everybody should have one of these bad boys, there the best and the price is about the same as those junk filters

I ordered 6 spark plugs at $5.85 ea with free super saver shipping, and added this filter onto the order when I saw it too was only priced at $5.85 and free S-S shipping. I don't know why it was this low but for 6 bucks I can't find fault with it. It fit, albeit tightly and required me to finesse the cover back on to my 02 impala's box but now that it's in there it's doing a fine job so far. I do notice that upon starting the car while it's still on high idle, I can hear the box sucking air whereas I couldn't before, and that was with a clean paper filter. Its the only indication I have to go on that it must be drawing more air than usual. Mileage hasnt changed one way or the other and I don't drive hard enough to give a G-force rating on how much power Ive gained either.
Bottom line, 6 bucks! whatta ya want?!?!?

Looked just like the K&N filters that I have in my other cars just a different color. Can't beat the price compared to the K&N. I have noticed better acceleration and better mileage since installing it plus I don't have to keep replacing the crappy paper filters!!

Too cheap to pass up. Replaced a dirty K&N I had, because it was cheaper to buy this than a re-oil kit for the K&N

Great filter for an excellent price! I have to say once my car's comp adjusted it loves this filter... and I think it likes it more than the K&N she had previously. It's true what others say that there are more pleats than K&N's allowing for more filtration... if this affects the overall power boost I honestly don't know. I have a 2004 Supercharged Monte Carlo SS and my baby adjusted to this filter in about 3 days and she is happy and I am happy to average about 1-2 more mpg so far, which is a help with gas being well over $3.00 a gallon. I hope this filter has the longevity K&Ns do, I guess time will have to be the judge of that.

If your into recycling and don't mind a little work in cleaning and treating. Buy
this filter or one like it. Yes, you do have to buy a recharging kit. It is still worth it in the long run! Save the landfill, better performance with more air flow and save a few bucks! With out a lot of hassel and a perfect fitting filter.

Arrived as described. Works great! My gas mileage on the highway has definitely improved. I haven't seen much difference in city driving gas mileage, but the car runs great.
