    Hey guys Noob here. I am looking at a 2006 Grand Prix, Supercharged GT, on Monday I dont have any pics, but it has a clear carfax, 1 owner non smoker, white with black leather interior. It has roughly 47,000 miles on it. I got him down to 9500. As long as there are no major issues, does that seem like a reasonable deal? Anything in particular I should be aware of and look for. It is completely stock and he said he has never altered anything, he is an older gentlemen and only has replaced brakes, tires, and done routine maintenance outside of that it is unmolested.

    Hard to find any 2006 cars in that kind of shape with that low of a mileage.

    Price is understandable, but I would honestly try to get it for less. It's still an 8 year old, mass produced car.

    After talking with the gentleman some more, the grand prix has the special wheels and different front and rear diffusers colored grill from the factory. I did some reading and that was a added factory option that year.

    Up here in the north, that wouldn't be too bad of a deal....sorta.

    Low miles, no rust, taken care of are all good for that car. I'd say 9k cash for be alright.

    It was a 2000 dollar option back in 06. I can't find any good pics of it though. Curious how the rear spoiler, valance and exhaust tips look

    It's probably the SPO grills and spoiler. Google search SPO Grand Prix should help you with pics

    here are the 3 pics I found I do like the rear a lot better, especially the exhaust tips, the stock ones look bad in my opinion. Sorry for all the posts, kind of fired up lol.

    I'm pretty sure that's all correct it just came with nice quad tips so you had duals on both sides

    That's a great price... I paid like 15k for mine 5-6 years ago w/ 43k. As long as everything is functioning correctly I say go for it..its hard to find ones with low miles nowadays.

    the guy I am buying it from is a paramedic, and we are trying to coordinate a time to meet. I was going to get it yesterday, but he then got called into work. He is done at 2 today, so I am hoping we can get it done, cant wait to see it in person.
