Decent mileage, reliable-ish, usable in the snow, good exterior looks, potential to find a cheap one, easy to find parts, easy to find out how to fix stuff, good car to learn about car stuff on. I wasn't even looking for a GTP, just wanted 'leather' and a sunroof - but this one was the least rusty cheap one with under 150k and 'leather' and a sunroof, so, it happened, lol. Would I buy another Grand Prix? Unless it was dirt cheap in really good shape and optioned out I would never buy a 97-03 again because of the interior, but I'm hoping to get an 04+ GP to replace this one sometime.
