    I have a 87 GP that I am thinking of selling. It is completely stock with 80,000 miles and has been garage kept. The vehicle has the 5.0 liter v8 along with sport suspension. Can anyone tell me how to price the vehicle? On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the best, I would say the car is a 8.

    Will the price increase if I continue to hold on to it?

    honestly the price i gave to you is rough, its whatever someone will pay for it, yea its the last of the G body platform, but it was never a rare or super desierable model. for me i would love to buy it just because its a g body grand prix and ive always wanted one.

    no one knows if holding onto would increase the value or not, the market fluctuates, and those havent caught on as a desierable model, they kickass for gutting and making into a drag car because they share parts with the older a bodys.

    do you have any pictures of it?
    i can suggest hemmings, smoke signals, for places to post it for sale. smoke signals is pontiac only and hemmings is general.

    Not to sh*t in your Cheerios, but I'd bet you couldn't get rid of it for more than $4,000.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    Pretty sure KBB has a price for them. PA car from 87, betting it has seen winters. Never understood people coming to the WWW and asking about the price of a car. What is worth in one location is not the same as another location.

    Get Tony Stewart to sign it and it will be priceless.

    I have an '81 Brougham (first year) that has sat in a heated garage for almost 20 years. The interior was gutted and reinstalled with new carpet, fresh 400 ci power plant with tri-power, TH400 transmission, limited slip rear transplant, BFG Radial T/A rubber on 15x8 aluminum, fresh paint and has been washed up to 10-15 times since this because it only really ever gets waxed. Maybe 75,000 miles on the ticker, at the most. If I removed the tri-power, I'd have been surprised if it would bring $2000.

    Haven't really priced them, though, but I don't think they'll ever really bring big money. Maybe I'm wrong.
