New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Got this heep last week. Its a 01 Grand Prix GTP Supercharged, black with black leather, bose stereo with factory amp, on star, head ups display, power moon roof, basically every option you could get in the car at the time.

Sticker price was 10,400 and after using Nash's bargaining skills I got it for 8,465. The car books at 12,900 so I think I got a decent deal considering its in mint shape and was driven by a middle age women for its whole life. The lady bought it in 01 and traded it back into the same place she bought it from for a new GTP.

I just took it on a long trip and its a super nice car to drive and really comfortable. It pretty quick actually, but man is it heavy! Its a big difference from my Laser. I am keeping my DSM though but I just needed something that is more dependable and nice to drive long distances since I drive like 55 miles each way to work.

Here is a few pics of it.

A few more.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Last ones. Sorry if there is any duplicates, I just took these really quick when I got from the cabin today.

Tight!

Nice! I've always hated those wheels though... Ugh. Find some of those chrome 5-spokes from the other Grand Prixs and you'll be set.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Yeah I don't really like them either. I will be getting different ones.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Nice car! But yes, the wheels gotta go.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Thing looks pretty nice man, congrats!

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Glad you're liking it :) Those wheels have to go though!

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Looks nice! Yeah, I also agree with the wheels gotta go.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Nice, I wouldn't mind owning one. Hows the tranny?

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

They made a lot of changes with the drivetrain in 01 thats why I bought it. The pre models had suspect drivetrains that would break even at stock power. This one seems pretty tight. If it goes out once a year it will still be half as much as my DSM so I am not worried about it.

Nice choice! A friend of mine has a '98(I believe) GTP that he pulled the supercharger off of last summer and added a turbo kit. The 3800 definitely has a great deal of potential.

Nice Daily! Boy everyones upgrading to non dsms haha. We need to change the name of this site now to non-DSM style lol.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

I need louder exhaust though quick, this thing is so damn quit I almost fall asleep driving. Time to fab up some exhaust.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

That is one super nice GTP. Good buy on that one.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

Grats, how the fuel economy?

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

I took it on a long trip last weekend and it got 28mpg with the AC running most of the time. And that was a mixture of frequent stopping and starting as well as highway driving. So its not that bad I guess.

Re: New Daily Driver 56k=Owned
 

28mpg is not too bad? That's GREAT for a car that size/weight. And it's supercharged....? What else could you ask for?
