My grandfather's health has deteriorated rapidly over the past 6 months. He had a Rav4 I wanted to buy, so I put my GP up for sale on a whim. It sold in less than a week, it was an 06, 67k miles in excellent shape. I got 7.2k for it. I found that getting the Rav4 to me(1500 miles away) was going to be too much money/trouble. So I passed on that deal. Now I'm stuck without a vehicle, missing the only car I've ever been happy with!
I have about 9k to spend on a new car, and after looking at an SRT-4 and a few WRXs(for the money), I can't stop thinking about my GP. The only thing I always wanted in my old car was more power, so now I am in a position to buy a car with a supercharger. So that's why I am here.
What do you think I could get and what years should I look for if I wanted to buy a GTP in good shape and mod it a little? I don't know what I want as far as long term goals..but something quick that I can tow the kids around town in occasionally is about all I need.
How much do GXPs go for? That may be a better option for me, but I'd have to travel a bit, slim pickings here in the car market.
