Hey guys, I know I was never a major contributor here like some others, but I spent a lot of time here reading, learning, enjoying, and returning the favor when I could. I also learned a lot here. I learned to work on cars, and automotive concepts in general starting at 0% knowledge... now I have a career in the automotive service field and it all started here and with my Grand Prix. Just wanted to say thanks up front... I felt like home here for awhile. It was a lot less toxic here than many other car platform boards.
So, it's with a heavy heart that I say it's come time for me to buy my first new new car. I really love my GP. It was my dream car when I was a kid, and it's been 100% reliable. Im emotionally bonded with it, and I've struggled mentally with the idea of keeping it as a garage queen, but it's just financially unrealistic for me to keep it on top of something new.
That said, I wanted to drop an ad here first before I start posting elsewhere... hoping it'll go to someone with a passion for the platform who might understand what it is and take care of it instead of trashing it... maybe it'll go on to live for many more years. Im gunna give it about a week here before I post up everywhere else.

Alright, so it's a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP Comp G, Black, 164k miles. Asking $3500, was $4000 originally. Keeping it firm. Located in Northeast Pennsylvania... Im willing to travel a few hours if needed, so we can talk about meeting up.
I bought it about 8 years ago, and it hasnt seen a winter since. When the first salt hits the road, it goes in the heated garage and my beater Explorer comes out. Zero rot anywhere.
The paint has been obsessed over, as I've really gotten into detailing over the years. The regular first/last detail of spring/fall every year is wash > clay > compound > polish > wax, takes about 8 hours... followed by a wash every 2 weeks and a coat of meguiars ultimate detail spray, or an actual coat of wax if I have the time. The paint is beautiful. Exhaust sounds pretty mean just from the powerlogs, wider downpipe, and high flow cat with stock catback.
It's had 5w30 Full Syn Pennzoil/Castrol/Mobil 1 all of it's life every 3-5k miles.
-->Heads-up Display is functional
-->Heated Front Seats
-->Moonroof
-->Silver SPO Front Grilles
-->Quad tail pipes
-->Tapshift
-->WS6 RPO designation as OEM Competition Group Package
-->OEM Comp G package includes upgraded stiffer suspension, steeper gearing in the trans for quicker take-offs, painted factory calipers, special wheels, and probably the nice tail pipes it has... and a really sweet dashboard CompG logo I've never seen on any other car of this kind... I dont know if the original owner did that custom or what but I loved it at first sight.
-->Clean title
-->LIM Gaskets redone about 2 years ago with revised metal gaskets, also changed out lifters with brand new LS7 lifters from Intense-racing at that time.
-->New water pump and both belts 4 months ago, it was starting to leak... between LIM gasket and water pump changes, coolant is fresh and crystal clear
-->ABS light is on, code for Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Signal
-->Clear coat peeling a bit on the spoiler
====================Current Mods into it:=============================
-->Sport Edition Kv5 Wheels 18", 245/45r18 tires (Always been in love with these wheels)
-->ZZP 2.5" Downpipe
-->ZZP Front Powerlog
-->ZZP Rear Powerlog
-->Open Cone Intake w/ DryFlow filter
-->180* Tstat
-->1.7:1 Yella Terra Roller Rockers
-->Overkill Tune
-->1 heat range colder Autolite Copper Plugs
-->ZZP Poly engine and trans mounts, dogbones are flipped
-->ZZP F-Body Front Calipers (Dual piston) w/ R1 Concepts Drilled and Slotted rotors all around
-->Floyd Floor Mats from PFYC.com, embroidered on the front mats with GTP Comp G, rear mats are Pontiac Arrowhead with no words
-->Retrofit projector headlights made by ClassyPontiac w/ Morimoto HID kits
-->3 gauge pillar pod w/ Oil pressure, Boost/vacuum, Aeroforce Interceptor... electrical wiring for the oil pressure and boost gauges are run, so you just gotta plug em in. I never had time to get around to wiring up the boost sensor or the oil pressure sensor for those gauges, so they have power, are tested and work, they just dont have their respective sensors hooked up yet... you'll get those sensors and wiring too.
=========================================
Sound system currently in it will be going with the car except for the sub box which I will be keeping. All the wiring for the sub will be left in place, so it'll be plug and play with whatever you want to use. Came with factory monsoon system, factory amp is bypassed but still in place.
-->Kenwood Excelon DPX791BH Head Unit
-->Kenwood SiriusXM Reciever to make head unit satellite compatible
-->Kenwood KAC-8406 4 channel amp - 2 channels to the front doors, 2 channels bridged to sub
-->Kenwood Excelon KFC-X174 2-way speakers in the front doors
Power wire run from positive jump post on the under-hood fusebox down the left side, Speakers wires run down the right side.
The system is incredible... high volume, high fidelity/clarity, and thumps like craaaazy with a single 12" that I have in it currently. I spent a long time picking these pieces out to jive together.
==========================================
Along with the mods I'll be leaving on the car, you'll be getting all of the factory pieces that I've kept, which is basically everything except the stock downpipe... I sent it back for the cat core.... and the stock wheels which I sold years ago.
You'll get...
-->Both stock exhaust manifolds
-->All of the stock rocker arms and push rods
-->Stock Stereo Head Unit
-->Stock headlights
-->Stock pillar where the gauge pod is
-->Stock PCM
-->Original Owner's manual
==========================================
There's a lot to be had here for the money Im asking, so hit me up. I'll be glad to answer any questions!
