That makes A LOT more sense.

bought with 89k miles as a GT with no known problems for $5.5k.

i have ended up supercharged now with 130k miles and a plethora of problems and solutions that i have created, including one spun bearing.

2000 Grand Prix GTP. 4500$ lim gasket bad, and rear window regulator bad. Everything else was immaculate. Oh and it had 106,000 miles on it.

i baught mine at a local jeep dealer for 4400 out the door with 120001 K but it had a cracked front bumper... no biggy itll be fixed soon =] now i got 131 K i got the car in JUNE right before my graduation =]

i bought a single owner 99 gt in october 07 that had 80k miles on it...kbb said near 6000 i paid 4500! the dude just bought an 08 CTS and no longer needed the gp and he babied this thing!

I bought my 1998 GTP for $600 @ 160k miles.

Sold the GTP for $3200 @ 163,000

Bought my 02 GT for $5,600 with 53k on it.

Selling it with 66k asking $6000

2006 GT 36k miles currently 41400, got it for 11985, KBB said it was worth 14800

bought my 02 gt about 5 and a half months ago for 6150 at 83k
now at 88k

99 GTP , Bought it 2 weeks ago, 170K, $2500 . No problems yet. Replaced the drivers side headlight and put brighter bulbs in it.

2001 GTP Coupe
$6,200 at a dealership...They were asking 7,500. I didn't "need" another car at the time so I was able to keep walking out if there price wasn't any good. Not "needing" a car is probably the best bargaining chip I've ever had. I also had no trade-in.
63,000 when purchased (Feb. 2009)
71,xxx currently
The car has been good so far. No money put into it except for mods and fluids.

bought mine for 4,250 after registration and all that BS. had 122k on it (june of last year) now has 128.

Still not a damn person over 200k?

Mom's GP is at 181k right now, and literally on it's last legs. I expect the motor to last about another 50k, only because of
expensive maintenance I did on it last summer, but the body is rusting, suspension is SHOT, motor mounts are worn and
clunking, about to be on it's third set of brakes in two years, windows are starting to get slow, remote entry is being
extremely temperamental, and little things here and there, like door trim falling off, rear defog not completely working, a/c
went out, blower motor is dying, speakers are popping in and out, CD player is having issues, power steering is getting
jerky.

It's just an old worn out car. It's worn it's miles easy though, belonged to an old man (76 when we bought the car in '08)
and has driven mostly highway miles, probably 85%, since we've owned it.



Now I just want to show you guys something.

1994 Acura Legend LS Type II 6spd Coupe. These pics where taken about two months ago, as the odo rolled over to 400k
miles. All original, save for front end repair after a deer collision. Never had a BHG, and still has the original clutch.

Thats what taking care of a car properly will do
almost any modern car can last if cared for most people beat the piss out of their cars and neglect things like timing chains belts oilchanges and so on

i bought mine for 2k with 175k on it and did a full rebuild and trans swap at 185k Only because i wanted to the car had plenty of life left it could of hit 250 easily

Supercharged cars are going to break faster as well do to more stress and powa
