    Default thinking about a GP GT.

    While driving around tonight, I met up with a guy that needed a left turn signal for his '99 GT sedan. We drove back to my garage, and I sold him one from my mom's old headlights. He said he drove it through a fence, and that's what broke it. There was also some damage on the bumper, and the right headlight had been replaced. It's basically a stock GT, cloth interior but it's got a factory CD and power drivers seat. It is dark blue, chrome torque stars, and 290k miles. He said he was getting tired of the car, and I later got the idea of buying the car form him, and fixing it up. Anybody know a good price to offer for it?

    Save your money and get a GTP, you'll get the GPGT and shortly thereafter you will want to do the top swap. It's a lot easier to go w/ the GTP and save yourself the hassle.

    Stay far away from that car with 290K on it, unless he'll take a ridiculously low price like 500 for it. Just save and wait for a good gtp.

    If I where to save up for a GTP, I think I might just wait around for a Regal GS. Always liked how they looked in white/gray with dark tint.

    This sounds about right. He looked (and smelled) like the kind of kid that would take this offer!

    Im paying a grand for a 120k 97gpgt forest green in really good shape and my buddy told me he has never had any problems with the car, Ill prolly have to replace either the ball joints or struts maybe look into brakes so I dont have to do them in the winter, has new tires on it as well. Any one think this is a good deal?
