Thread: Asking for opinions and good advice on this possible purchase... 04 GTP

Okay so I am thinking about buying this 2004 Grand Prix GTP. It has a 104,000 miles and fully loaded with everything but the paddle shifters and HUD.

Everything is working perfect. The interior is in prestine condition and looks basically brand new. The outside has barely any scratches and no dents. It is black and the tires have decent treads and decent breaks.

I looked up the VIN number and the vehicle was in an accident and sold at an auction during a criminal case at some time. This guy bought it and fixed the front bumper, side skirt, and hood and did a repaint. Nothing was shown as damage to the engine or main frame or interior. He also sent me pictures of what the car looked like before he fixed it for proof.

I talked him down from $6500 to $5500 and he wont go any lower.

Is this a good deal?

Thanks

If it looks good and was repaired correctly, buy it.

I found it on Craigslist. It is by far the best deal I have seen in the last 2 weeks. The guy who owns it is a clean freak. I cant find a speck of dirt on the interior or exterior... Bluebook in excellent condition has this at $7700.

Hmm well It does seem like a great deal. It just seems to good to be true.

I just dont wan't the engine to crap out after I purchase it.

Here is another add i found. This one is a 2004 gtp compg series I talked this girl down to 4100.

Heres the add:
$4,450 FOR SALE

I am the second owner of this car and this is my 2nd GTP
Car runs good but does need some minor repairs.
Front tires are new but car does need new rims, oil has always been changed with synthetic. Most miles on the car are highway miles. It gets me to and from Chicago for work. Dent on driver side by rear tire.
I will sell the car with the 2 kenwood subwoofers ad the kenwood amp works wonderful!!!!!

Think this would be a better buy? I havent even test drove it yet though.

Right but it does have paddle shifters, HUD and a better sound system. But are paddle shifters and a HUD really worth it?

Hud is. Paddle is not.

But its a comp g which is worth it. Better gearing.
