Well I decided I wanted something BOOSTED. I really wanted a white WRX but then came the decision to sell my truck and make this new vehicle my DD and it has to fit my two kids in it.
Well then became a toss up between a GTP or a GS Regal.
I had one of each to go check out. The GTP was asking 1,500 and a GS that was asking $1,300. Small budget but didnt want a car payment... looking to buy house soon. Plus I'm an mechanic so I can fix any problems.
So I decide to check out the GTP first because it has a few mods already.. ported/polished supercharger and Thrasher CAI.
MY FIRST IMPRESSION..... THESE THING IS A POS!!! She has about 20 dings and rust bubbling under the gas door. All I thought to myself was the underside must look like death cuz she has 160k on her.
Well after checking everything out and noticing the undercarriage was mint, not a spot of surface rust and not a single fluid leak could be seen, I decide to test driver her.
Holy ****! This car screws and there is enough room in the back sit to have a orgy in. End up offering the guy $1,000 and getting her for $1,200.
I have done quite a few repairs to make her road worthy to my expectations considering I have two young daughters that would be riding in this thing. But all and all I'm under $1,700 deep into her including the $1,200 I paid for her.
So far I am totally pleased with her and I'm in love. I think in the future I might spring the bucks and get a newer one (01-02) with less mileage.. perfer something under 100k, maybe the special edition gtp cuz i love the interior in those.
