So I just recently got into the Grand Prix GTP and I love it. Unfortunately.....so does my wife. I swear that woman has driven my car more than I have since I got it going.
Anyways we have decided we gonna buy her one. She doesn't care if its SE/GT/GTP/CIA/UPS/Give-A-Dog-A-Bone.........but I do. I've ruled out SE and the GT with the 3.4L. We've decided to stay within the 98-04 Yrs.
Definitely going to stay with 3.8L (S/C or not) and I do have a few questions:
Did any GT come with heated seats?
HUD?
Dual Climate Control?
I've been trying to find answers and either I'm not looking in the right spot or the damn Gremlins keep moving the pages on me. I can find TONS of info on the Engine differences (naturally) but very little info on actual differences in the......creature comforts.
Does any Particular year stand out as better? I know 04 had a Redesign. 05 starts to get beyond our budget in our area. She REALLY likes the HUD and heated seat so if those are GTP only then obviously I'll need to rework my search parameters lol.
Also I'm well aware of transmission issues and I know nothing is CONCRETE (I'm a diesel mech) but whats the longevity of the transmissions driven by someone who rarely rarely sees past half throttle primarily in the GT 3.8L?
Come to think of it, don't think the Accord has seen past 1/4 throttle unless she going up hill or I'm driving.
Thanks in advance everyone.
