Adrian is about 45 minutes SW of Ann Arbor. I usually make it out to Woodward in Royal Oak about 2-3 times a year in the Firebird, but since I'm selling off the toys, I'll be out there in the GTP a few times this year.

Where on WW do you hang out? I'm usually with a group of F-Body folks at Auto Europe, we have permission from the owner to use the lot there after hours, I think it's at WW & 16 mile.

Don't think I ever saw you last year, but there are a few other GP guys that go out there.

I only made it out there once last year, it was toward the end of the season. I was in the Formula. I'll bring out the GP when the weather gets nicer, I'd like to look at some other GP's to get ideas.

Overall, I don't think I'm going to spend more than $1000 on the GTP, I really don't want to lose money if/when I decide to sell it. I've made a profit on the last 3 vehicles I've sold, so I kinda want to keep the trend going, it allows me the opportunity to upgrade. . . lol

Wouldn't it be nice if I were able to sell this one for $1k more than I paid for it, and buy a newer GTP, or throw some more money in and get a GXP or something? lol

yeah, i'd try and talk you out of getting the GXP though, unless you go for the g8. FWD v8 is just fail. I guess its good though if you use it as a DD but I'm not fond of them. I used to have a 94 GP that I put GXP badges on, lol.

Odd, I have a '98 GTP that I'm thinking about taking the badges off of. lol

My Formula was basically a sleeper. . . The Z28 is too, the badges are body color, can't tell it's a Z28 unless you're really looking for the badges. The Monte Carlo, well, it doesn't have badges, but a cammed BBC with 3" dual exhaust isn't going to be quiet any way you put it, and the bright yellow paint and black racing stripes aren't doing it any favors as far as "stealth" is concerned. lol

The GTP is a VERY sleek looking car, and although the interior color isn't my first choice, and it's lacking a sunroof, it's really starting to grow on me.

I would be the one looking for the badges

lol. I'm looking to get a 98-02 WS6 soon. Possibly an LS1 z28 but we'll see about that.

and that gen GP is sexy. I don't like the pre gen's and I don't like the current. GM did something right with 97-03's.
