Nice score! So when is the Topswap or turbo build scheduled to start?

If I was to modify it it would be simple suspension stuff I wouldn't do anything motor wise. It's a gem no point in modifying the motor and having something go wrong.

How much was it? I got my 01 gt with 49k miles in 13.

If anything happens to it, you'll find out that the minty cream puff status does nothing for the value unfortunately. Meaning its not worth more than one with 80K at this point. Thats a cool story on the car. Nice to at least know history on one. I believe if you visibly modify it at all, that will quickly take away from any special value that it has. Luckily, even a stock GT coupe is a fun ride in my book. Nice ride, man. I would not baby it but just use it up and enjoy the process!

Nice find! Just like my car in 09 but just has a cooler story with it. I got a black 98 GT from a dealer and as I was test driving it it rolled over to 28000. Now it sits at 59000. I've done suspension and only minor engine stuff like a CAI but have saved the original air box and things. You're very lucky!

150k is considered low mileage, according to craigslist adds.

Nice score and awesome story. Subed for moar pics.

Ive seen people say low miles at 180k+. Then ask over 3-4k for their pontiac. I then reply what should i ask for mine with 63k miles??

Sorry but it's true. Just a noise adder

In for pics!

You paid $3,000ish for this car with 28k. What?!

That's a steal. I'll give you $3,100 cash today lol

I have had 0 problems it's been nothing but good to me. Went through it when I got it and it's been beautiful ever since. Oil, filter, plugs, wires, trans fluid, fuel filter etc. The CAI did nothing noticeable except make the engine a little louder and the engine bay look nicer.

That's a crazy good price. iirc i paid around 7 but that was with all the taxes and fees i can't remember the actual car price.

Intake gives noise and some throttle response. Not much else. Especially on the NA.
