• 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.

2001 GTP SPECIAL EDITION Coupe

New member
I am selling my very unique Pontiac Grand Prix GTP SPECIAL EDITION -note, there are SPECIAL EDITIONS & there is this one that I took a bit further with quite a few factory updates from various Pontiac vehicles. These updates/upgrades vary from aesthetically pleasing to the eye to performance enhancing & safety upgrades all the while maintaining a factory look.
Here is a partial list of these unique updates done to this vehicle:

Bonneville GXP Leather/Carbon Fiber wrapped steering wheel
Grand Prix Limited Edition
factory white/faux Carbon Fiber speedometer face (very nice and clean look -unlike any cheap aftermarket speedometer overlays)
GM Performance Parts 12" Dual Piston upgraded front brakes with Ceramic pads
GXP FE4 Bilstein Struts & Springs all the way around the car
GXP FE4 square trailing arms (original were weak FE1 stamped steel that easily bent)
Aluminum Engine Cradle
Aluminum Oil Pan (original was steel and had the gasket that leaked all the time)


****Aftermarket upgrade parts (not everything as there has been so many upgrades in the 3+yrs I've owned this car):

MPD F1 Ram Air hood (for $200 of car price buyer can opt for the original factory Special Edition hood with factory heat extractors/vents/scoops).
SD front bumper lip
Pioneer DEH-P7600MP CD/MP3 player stereo
Infinity 6x9 3-way rear speakers
Blue LED backlighting for most of power interior switches & backlighting.
4300K HID headlights

***Factory Special Edition features:
Unique Roof Rails/fences
Unique trunk spoiler
2-tone leather interior
'SPECIAL EDITION GP' interior badges on each door panel.
Unique light grey dash & console trim to help acccent the 2-tone leather seating & door panels.


The car has 190k miles but runs like a champ.
Engine gets Mobil 1 Synthetic Oil with Wix oversized filter (extra filtering) every 4k miles.
I am replacing the lower intake manifold gaskets again with GM metal lower intake manifold gaskets as well as a fresh set of valve cover gaskets.
Has not had Dexcool antifreeze since the previous (2nd) owner had the lower intake manifold gaskets replaced around 60k miles in 2007 and the car is located in central MN (per required location).
3.29 trans & since I installed the transmission I have installed a shift kit & have done a transmission flush & filter every 30k with a premium Wix filter & Dexron VI synthetic fluid.
Engine is stock aside from a AEM Dryflow 4"x9" cone air filter.
Mufflers are needing replaced but I have a pair of good low mile mufflers off a newer Grand Prix to go with the car
There is some rust starting on both quarter panels, but not holes yet so should be easily repairable by body repair man.

The tabs are good through December 2014.
Tires are snow tires with less than 5k miles on them & are mounted on pre-gen (1994-1996) 5-spoke rims which have a nice offset to them for a slightly aggressive stance.

$4250 or best reasonable offer -low ball offers go to spam files.

NO TRADES.
Interested parties (NO INTERNATIONAL CALLS) call /text 320-290-1217 with any questions, etc...

Good Lookin car! That has to be one of the few clean coupes left in Minnesota that's for sure.

Car shouldn't take long to sell!
 
At the asking price I will include the currently installed (but wasn't planning on including):
1.Rear GXP brakeswith stainless brake lines.
2.Otto racing front STB.
3. Infinity Reference 3-way 6x9 rear speakers
4. GXP Stainless Steel Gas and Brake pedals
5. Carpet will be professionally shampooed.

A couple items included that I just thought of:
1. I installed two NOS AC Delco front wheel bearings/Hubs in July/August so they are nice and smooth/tight.
2. I have a pair of OE or aftermarket (buyers choice) fog lamps to replace the shattered fogs currently on the car.
3.Tail lights that are on the car are some of the best factory tail lamps still around.... only way they could be better is the one little delam spot on one and if they bother were buffed for a factory shine/finish.
4. Tail lights have been modified for sequential signaling.
5 Rear dash and complete inners of trunk are Dynomatted.... and car is wired for an amp with good quality wiring.... great for anyone looking to install an amp/subs (I will have a couple options for dirt cheap to buyer if interested)
6. Brake fluid is fresh DOT 4 synthetic fluid.
7. Original Black/chrome GTP door badges are in glove box.

A couple issues I forgot to mention:
1. There is damage to the front bumper (SD Lip covers majority of damage) from hitting a racoon this past summer (I didn't turn it into insurance because with my $500 deductable my rates would go up more for just one month than State Farm would cover on their own).
2. Car may need a rear wheel hub or ABS module.
3. Car has a mysterious pull when stepping medium-heavy on the brakes -Tie rods, ball joints, control arm bushings, wheels/tires have all been ruled out.
 
How many MN winters have you seen, and do you guys use salt or sand? Under carriage condition?

I really respect the touches of class...very nice work.
