    Hey all,

    Just bought a 2002 GTP with about 38,000 miles on it, thought I'd sign up. I've had the car for a couple months now and I already love it. Looking forward to getting into modding it, although it is my daily driver as well.

    http://i.imgur.com/GmIqNnK.jpg I got the car in January, and I have a 150 mile commute, so that's where the other seven or so thousand miles came from. @dsmuts - Yeah, I agree, but I did some research on the car and figured it was just a good find. I ran the carfax, found it was a one owner car that had been taken to the same place for oil changes and maintenance for ~10 years, so I called them up and asked if the guy remembered the car. He did, and said it was the second car for an older couple, only the wife really drove it. The car had a couple of issues, the abs and coolant lights were on. I had the dealership fix those before I drove it away. Other than that, the light bulb in the radio was out (~4 dollars to replace it), and there's a short in the hazards that I currently have fixed with a piece of cardboard. Haven't found anything else, so far.

    When I was looking around before I bought mine, I found one with 23,800 on it advertised by a dealership in New Jersey. After doing the car fax there were errors like the car had higher mileage back in 2004. The dealership still sold the car like that from what I know.
