    Well, in 1998 average price per gallon was ~1.20, and the past few years have been triple that.

    Id say that estimate is quite a bit low lol

    Haha seems MPG varys a lot. I have a Ford Escort which has tires that like to go flat. If the tires get a little flat, the reason I bought my '00 GTP, and I drive it my MPG shoots down to probably around 15 or so. But as long as it does better than my pick up Im happy. My pickup gets 8 MPG city and around 12-15 highway. Of course, when you step on the pedal the front end lifts up off the ground.

    Always cool to display with your GP if you show it. Wish mine was in as good of condition as the ones posted.

    You want to know what's more insane than that. The fact that $28,300 in 2002 has the same buying power as $36,279.96 in 2012.
    Inflation...... making you say since its inception.

    When you factor that in... it's about the price of a current full-size boosted sedan: SHO.

    '00 Grand Prix SE - Pink (L67 Swapped/XP Cam/3.25")
    '98 Grand Prix GTP - Black ($500 toy with broken trans. )

    I'm sure you can order a new one. I saved the one from my mustang and I'm saving receipts/log of every modification and oil change I do to it. I even have a copy of the dealership invoice. lol

    When I saw this I checked to see if I had my old Monte Carlo picture still saved. The PO saved it in the glove box.
    $18650 in 1995 is a tad over $28K in 2012. Car was on the low option side too, cloth interior, single exhaust.
