    Hi all, Im new to board and im in the process of looking to buy a GTP. Is there anything I should look for? Are there any years that are better then others? And most of the ones ive seen are mostly over 100,000 miles should this be a concern? Thanks for any reply in advance

    If your wanting to do any kind of modding your going to want a 99-02 year model.

    Keep looking. They are out there. Can't put a specific mile number. Depends on that car. My personal preference is 99 or 00 GTPs.
