She's a 2004 Grand Prix GT2. She's also my first car.

I've had her since Sep. 2013, and she's definitely got a personality... Plenty of weird quirks, like being practically a 2003 on a 2004 chassis, VIN confirmed GT2 with none of the normal GT2 amenities, completely base model interior... Lol
As she sits now:

95k and counting. Plenty of things that still need fixing, but hey, nobody's perfect. She's survived an unknown number of years in German humidity (it's literally wet every single day of the year.), having the crap beat out of her by previous owners with questionable car knowledge, a 5000+ mile trip on a boat exposed to the waters of both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and she's got two Alaskan winters under her belt already...still running like a champ. Ish.
I'll be periodically updating the beginning of this thread, to hopefully avoid forgetting something, and give a bit of back story to whoever is interested. I find this car to be quite interesting, because I still don't know everything about this car. Always finding out something new...
Oh, and for whatever reason, I'm putting pics back up that I took down.

There's some build plans for her, nothing terribly big but I've got plenty of time and patience to make it happen.
And as always, a large helping of ADHD and OCD, with a side of pathologically stubborn to a fault.
