• Failure to follow these rules may result in your threads being locked, deleted, or moved. Depending on the severity of your actions, or frequency of your actions, your user account could be suspended or banned. These rules are to help protect both buyer and seller.


    1. CONSOLIDATE all of your for sale items into ONE thread only. This means there will be NO making multiple sales threads for different items regardless if the parts are related or not.

    2. PRICE IS REQUIRED. We do not permit ads without an asking price for each item. "Best Offer" is not an allowable substitute for posting a price. You may ask for $1 but a price must be listed regardless. If a price is not listed with in the first 24 hours of making your sale thread IT WILL BE LOCKED or DELETED. Once a price is listed a bidding war is not permitted. If the seller gets an offer that meets his asking price, the seller should honor the asking price and sell for that amount.

    3. EBAY LINKS AND OTHER LINKS. We allow links to ebay ads, but you MUST have a buy-it-now price posted, or an asking price to stop the auction in your ad here (Not just in the link). If it is from another site or from here, do not use a link but post the full text instead with pictures if you have them listed. If a BIN price is not posted, then your thread will be DELETED.

    4. CITY / STATE are required info for each ad. Information must be posted in the first post of thread, NO EXCEPTIONS. Buyers and sellers reserve the rights to privately ask for full contact information on any purchase or sale. 24 hour notice will be given, if you do not comply your post will be DELETED.

    5. NO TWO PARTY SALES. This means no more "I'm selling for a friend" posts and will be deleted immediately with no notice. Seller assumes all responsibility of anything they post for sale.

    6. NO FEELER THREADS. You are either selling it or you aren’t selling it.

    7. POST COUNT AND/OR TIME LIMIT. We are requesting that you spend some time with us before you start a For Sale thread. A pre-determined minimum number of posts will be required or 1 year since creating the account + an intro thread (just so we know you aren’t the Prince of Africa). Any for sale thread posted out of the For Sale section to circumvent the rules will result in being deleted. Those who do meet the criteria and post outside the section will have their thread moved, constant violation of this will result in an infraction.

    8. NO BUMPING OR TT’ing YOUR THREAD MORE THAN ONCE IN 48 HOURS. Don’t worry your thread will still be a bold read until a user reads it and if people are really interested they will let you know. Post warning will be issued if in violation and on the 3rd warning, the thread will just be locked.

    9. NO THREAD DUMPING OR I DON’T LIKE YOUR PRICE. Don’t post in a person’s thread just to tell them they are too high, either move along and say nothing or throw an offer to them. The person can sell it at whatever price they think someone is willing to pay. Offenders will be issued a warning, if it is a constant issue then an infraction will be issued.

    10. KEEP YOUR THREAD UP TO DATE. This is really for your benefit, so you don’t get 10 PMs asking if you still have it when you already sold it.

    11. NO WEAPONS. As Admins we have determined that no weapons will be allowed to be sold, this includes knives, guns and anything else deemed a weapon (even if its a wall hanger only). We ask that if you want to sell these items you seek out the appropriate websites elsewhere to do so.

    12. Pictures are REQUIRED. Pictures of all items for sale. This is to help BOTH seller and buyer. As a seller it is MUCH easier to sell something if you have pictures of it. As a buyer you feel better seeing exactly what you are buying. Pictures should contain the item/s for sale and a sign of some kind that has your username on it. 24 hour notice will be given, if you do not comply your post will be DELETED.

    FRAUD & RISK. Buy and Sell at your own risk. Grand Prix Forums and its staff are not responsible if someone rips you off or doesn't send parts out in a timely manner. This classifieds section is a free service for the community, and it is YOUR responsibility to handle all transactions in a low-risk method. DO NOT contact us if there is a dispute between you and someone else, we are NOT INVOLVED. You can help minimize fraud risk by doing these suggestions:

    Pay using PAYPAL, using a credit card. This way, if a part does not arrive, you can do a charge back through your credit card company. If you gift it, then you have no recourse to get your money back when things fall through. Pay the 3% and have the buyer protection. Using someone else's paypal and gifting to pay for goods is violating Paypal's Terms of Service.



    Always ask for full name, residential address, phone numbers of both buyers and sellers. An honest seller should have no problem disclosing this info to you privately.


    Shipping things C.O.D. is risky. Try to use UPS or Fedex, so that you can track shipments. Have someone sign for it if it is expensive.


    Ask for references from other members, hopefully from other members who have been registered for longer than one year and are active here.


    Use your gut feeling. If something seems too good to be true, or a seller/buyer seems a little shady, don't take the risk.

    TIPS:
    -Post pictures: with mobile phones these days and auto uploads, it’s not even really hard anymore. Have it automatically drop in Photobucket, grab the Img tag link and paste it in.

    -Give good contact information if you aren’t going to be on here a lot.

    -If you are going to disappear for an extended time (vacation, time in jail, what have you), then give us a quick note that you aren’t going to be around. People will trust you a little more.

    -Look around and gauge your price with other items. Just cause you bought it for $1000, doesn’t mean it’s now worth $1,200 or even the original $1,000. You are free to ask what ever you want, but an item that is priced right will sell quicker.
  • The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

1998 Grand Prix GTP 2000 OBO

Well, it's that time. It's been a good few years, but everything is a wallet buster, and I found a deal I couldn't pass up. I just needed something more economical for going to and from work and school.

Many of you old guys are familiar with this car, I've had it for over 5 years now and I've been around here since late '08.

What you need to know:
It has 168k miles.
The engine has closer to 85k miles.
It has a salvage title. That said, it still runs and drives just fine, and it looks a lot better than when I bought it.
It has some visible body rust, not a ton, and the stuff you can't see isn't nearly as bad as you think. Rockers are pretty solid compared to many Midwest GPs.
Needs some work, most of it is routine stuff, couple front hubs, tie-rod end, and some other minor things.
It is lightly modded and tuned, nothing over the top.

Factory Options:
Sunroof
Leather
Head-Up Display (HUD)
Power Driver Seat
Digital A/C Controls
Performance Shift (you know it's cool)

Mods
Ported Supercharger
Ported Throttlebody
180* T-Stat
AEM 4x9 Cone Custom Air Intake
Custom Tune

Other Stuff:
Apline CDA 9884 HU. 6 Preamp outs, great quality radio. Depending on the situation of the buyer, I MAY OR MAY NOT include this. (My new car needs a new radio, and if you already have a radio to put in it...)
Back-lit custom HU mount "Grand Prix GTP" for the radio
Reverse-glow white-face gauges (will be removed if the buyer prefers stock).
Aftermarket remote starter.

What I will do:
I WILL swap aftermarket body parts for stock body parts + cash.
I WILL consider making minor repairs before sale.

What I won't do:
I WON'T trade for another vehicle.
I WON'T part the car out.

Parts I'd be willing to swap:
HEADLIGHTS ARE GONE. STOCK HEADLIGHTS WILL BE IN THEIR PLACE
Tail Lights [Red Housed LED Tails]
If there are others you can think of let me know.

There is one part (or set) of parts I'd be willing to sell right out, PM me if you're interested, that would be the powdercoated white 5-spoke pregen rims everyone loves so very much.

Now on to the starting price and pictures. 2000 OBO

Re: 1998 Grand Prix GTP

Thanks guys. Hoping it can find a good home. I'd honestly like to see someone take it up as a project car, but once it hits c-list, I'm guessing it will end up being a "I bought it cause it's cheap" car and will get blown up in seconds. Premium fuel. Kids think they don't need it in these cars, and with the mods it's a shoe-in for such tragedy...
 
Re: 1998 Grand Prix GTP

Thanks guys.

I DO encourage everyone to read the info I laid out. Also keep in mind it IS OBO. I also welcome ANY questions about the vehicle. I've given a lot of info, but there are things I may have missed.

Motor in my car is strong. If your car is still around, a little love, attention, and some work and a few parts from your car could make this car near perfect.
 
Re: 1998 Grand Prix GTP

Also as an update, I AM swapping the headlights for STOCK.
This is a blessing more than a curse. As it sits, I don't have a proper ballast set up for the car due to my own stupidity and the way it is set up now, you have to use the fog light switch to turn the headlights on. Once stock, they'll function as normal. I was just too cheap to put in new ballasts.

Re: 1998 Grand Prix GTP

it's a bit of a trek, but if you were sufficiently interested (and i'd certainly provide any pictures, videos, or other information you asked for), I'd be willing to work out meeting up in the middle to deliver the car.
