• 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.

Low mile 07 GXP LS4 V8 Turbo for sale FL

New member
Hey all,

So I’m considering selling my 07 GXP Turbo… I’ll be moving north soon and don’t think I could stomach watching the road salt get to it. I could park it in the garage with my V-8 X-11 Beasty, but figured I see if someone was interested in one that’s already built with low mileage. So the quick & nasty is it’s been in Florida since new, has a full CarTuning turbo kit, fully built trans with every upgrade part and only 58K miles (15k with kit & trans).

Looking for $19,500 OBO – not looking to get rich but not looking to give it away. At that price, you could find a GXP with 100k miles and drop the coin for turbo kit & trans and would be spending more (and that doesn't include other mods). If no one is interested, fair enough I’ll keep – still have my first car and the GXP was my first “new” car. Anyone out of state that’s interested and doesn’t want to ship, you can fly into Ft Lauderdale or Miami and drive home! I could even meet you in Tampa or Orlando with enough notice - bring the kids to Disney and drive home an awesome GandPrix! Located in Ft Lauderdale, FL.

Here’s a detailed list of mods:

Full inter cooled Turbo kit
Alki pump is tucked behind bumper cover for clean install
Hot pipes heat wrapped & turbo blanket
Valve spring upgrade
Exhaust manifolds ported and ceramic coated

Dom Rome strut bars front & rear
Moog Problem solver control arm bushings & sway bar links
Custom poly motor mount
ZZP performance billet aluminum dog bone mount

Fully built transmission
300M input shaft
3.29 gear set w/ 15/16” chain
True Limited Slip Differential LSD
Billet 3rd gear piston
Valve body upgrades
2800 RPM stall converter
Pan spacer w/ drain plug (extra fluid capacity helps with turbo spool and trans temp)
Remote filter
Fat trans cooler

CTS-V 4 piston brake upgrade
Cooper Zeon tires

VIPR alarm with remote start & two way FOB.

Always ran Mobile one full synthetic

Despite the mods & Eric’s taunting, I’ve always been easy on it – it’s my daily driver.

okay that's nice but you do know you never get back what you put in, you can tell that's your asking price, you will never get over 13k for that car, I mean its nice but for 20k you can buy a CTS V for that kind of coin,
 
^Noob. He says in the post that its cheaper than buying a GXP and getting it to this point, and you'd have twice the miles on it. If he can't get that, he said he's fine keeping it.
 
Yeh well I can agree with the noob here I have been around these cars countless times yeh I get what he is saying, but still car is no where near worth what he is asking no offense man and i dont think you will take offense it is a sweet car. I would just say keep it unless you plan on coming down a **** load.
 


Road salt is overrated. Keep the car clean and you don't have to worry about it. I've lived in southwestern PA all of my driving life and not one of my cars has any rust on them.
 
Thanks for the comments guys. For those up in arms about the asking price, do you know the cost of the Turbo kit and a fully built trans?? The turbo kit is $5500 plus shipping and a fully built trans is $5k - and neither of those prices included labor. Dome Rome strut braces $250, ceramic coating & heat wrap $400, VIPR alarm $500, 4 piston Brembo brake upgrade $650, but stops like a champ!

An average condition GXP book value is @$9500 private party value on Kelly Blue Book and @12,500 from a dealer - again for an average condition with higher miles. So, you could take a GXP, do the same upgrades and even if you did all the work yourself would still be spending more that what I'm asking. I realize not everyone wants a Turbo LS powered car (but if you've ever driven one you would!) so I figured I'd list it and see if anyone that's planning the upgrades would rather have one that's already done = help someone on the forum as I've got lots of good info here for my engine swaps and such.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,
Robert

Sad reality is it's a cool car, and worth nowhere near the asking price. True enough, the build does add up, but chroming a turd doesn't prove cost effective. You should resolve to keep it.
 


Cheers Fellas! I have no problem keeping it - I had never planned to sell it until the job transfer came along and I picked up a "northern car" cause I'm not going to drive any of the cars I built in the snow, and my luvely lady balked at "another car", so told her I'd let fate decide = throw it out at a fair price and if someone bites, fair enough & good for them! If not, my X-11 Citations don't mind a younger brother...
 
Yea you never get back what you put in, in fact I would expect to get back about 10% of what you do to car, that car with those mods/miles would sell private for $14,000 tops & that's even pushing it
 


Yeah I would agree with most people in here, you will be lucky to see 13k. Your price is too high and if you are not willing to negotiate I would probably just keep it.
