Save a lil more and get a gtp. You'll thank me later lol.

2x, I'm kicking myself in the butt for not saving a few hundred more I needed for the GTP, however I am still happy with my GT.Originally Posted by Bluemagic

98-00 are the best years.
and gt's suck. get a gtp.
02-13-2013
ok even with a gtp. what millage is gonna start giving engine issues? even if it was well maintained
02-13-2013
depends on maint.
could be from 0-300k miles.

iv never had one, also im starting to learn how to work at cars since it will be very usefull. i live in apartments so iv never had a garage to work on a car lol
02-13-2013
well i dont park in the garage so i have plenty of room. what are the biggest concerns to look out for?
02-13-2013
I bought my first gtp with 160k for 1400. Neededma few things but never had any real issues with it. If you search there is a list of known things to look for when buying one
02-13-2013
if you live in apartments, don't buy a w-body.

rust is the biggest issue to look out for. Check in the trunk at the strut towers and the rocker panels on the sides of the cars.
02-14-2013
Ok thanks. If I can find one worth the money ill post pix. Any thing else to keep an eye out for?

Keep in mind you'll need to run premium gas on a GTP, which is not true with the GT...extra costs some don't think about. Not a huge deal, but if you're REALLY on a tight budget, that's something to keep in mind.
With these cars, maintenance is the key. A properly maintained 3800 series engine will run darn near forever. Just make sure the body will last as long as the engine by checking for rust where dsmuts mentioned.

I usually like people checking cars out with me lol. I just need to find a seller that will negotiate on price. What sucks is I'm in Mi so cars rust fast here
