New Member! Looking to get a GTP!

[David99GTP]

Thanks for the warm welcome so far! I guess I'll take advantage and ask some questions you guys might help me on.

Alright, so GT or GTP?
-maintenance differences
-reliability/repairs
-common problems/issues
-which years are better than others
-what to look for in the different models/years
-any other info you can think of

I definitley want a GT or GTP with the 3.8L V6, but I would like to know the differences and also what to look for when buying the car. Basically I'd like a heads up before I make the big decision of buying one. ANY advice would be MUCH appreciated!

Thanks again!

GTP will give you the supercharger and some nice options like the HUD. As said mine has been reliable, 110k and no major issues. I went with a 4 door because I have kids. I own a 99 so I am bias to a 99 LOL

How do you guys feel about a 1999 GT black sedan, black leather, HUD, sunroof, new plugs/wires, new tires, new coolant system, new fuel filter and w/ 135000 miles? I found one very close to my residence, and the pics look like its in a great, clean condition. The asking price is $4100 OBO.

I intend to take a look at this in person sometime this week... any advice on what to look for. Is a car with 135k on it going to be prone to a lot of problems?

Thanks.

Welcome!
Answering the bold...
if the previous owners took care of it, the answer is NO
The price looks good depending on appearance, my brother just bought a 2000 GT near perfect paint, garage kept all it's life, complete maintenance records for $4500 with 130K miles.
