    Well picked up a 04 GTP today and could not be happier . It will need a few things to get her back to excellent condition. Just blown away with the instant response when you hit the gas lol. I hope to contribute as well as learn from this site. color is gray

    Yeah GTP seems like a major downgrade from a Beamer. Like going from a Corvette to a Metro.

    Well I guess It has been a few years since I had the 335 and have been driving more family car stuff 2013 Accord sport m6 4 banger and a 15 Explorer limited and so on so I wanted some thing fun that I liked and that wad not 200k Mclaren lol. I have a full size truck that pulls my boat to the ocean on weekends and the GTP will be fun in the meantime so I can save up for something crazy in 2.5 years from now on my 50th birthday.Cars I have owned are 03 Evo with 500+hp a new 06 Mustang GT with mods, Lexus is300, Titan quad cab and crew cab, F150 Lariet crew , Silverado crew, BMW 335 needless to say I go thru cars I am sure there are a few I forgot to mention lol. But anyway I am looking forward to my experience with the GTP and have been reading on here for tips and tricks on running this machine.

    Unless it's black, I got pulled over more times in my black GTP than I've been pulled over in every other vehicle I've driven combined.
