    I traded my Mustang GT for this thing, as happy as I am it does require some loving considering it was a country car. Heres a list of stuff I need replaced:
    Driver door panel
    Auto-dimming rear view mirror
    Driver mirror
    Fog lamps
    Red front bumper
    Possibly rear rear bumper (not a must have)
    Engine cover
    Windshield
    Remove all the damn dents

    That's it! Everything else is good, leather is in great shape and the BOSE audio works great. I love the car and the HUD works amazingly
    Here are a few quick pics:

    Thanks I owned a 01' Monte Carlo SS before it was nothing but a pain in the ass so you could see why I hesitated to get this car. My first car was a 96' Pontiac Grand Am SE went through 4 tranny's and 1 motor

    I thought about it, I like the GTP badge though =\.
    I will say one thing about this car though, it whines loud! I've seen videos of them that were quiet, but no mine is loud as hell lol
