Hey all, new to this forum & glad i found it.
I'm considering going to the local dealership tomorrow and test drive a 2005 Grand prix GT. There asking 10k (as is) for the GT. I guess they could offer a 3rd party warranty. It has 61k on it. Black beauty with black leather seats, sunroof. I could only inspect the exterior of the GT as they where closed today. The threads on the front tires a little lower then the rear. Looking under the engine, I saw no indications of any oil\fluid leaks. Exhust looks nice from what I can see. Interior looks clean from what I can see. From the outside I detected no repaint or body work done. Knowing popping the hood open will tell me more. I do notice when I press down on the front of the hood there appears to be a very, very small gap or like the latch is not closed all the way (perhaps normal?).
With this mileage on the GT is there anything specific (besides the usual check of everything) I should look for on a test drive?
I'm thinking the stealership might take $9k or not, lol. Anyone think it's still to much money for the GT?
Any head gasket problems on the 2005 GT's?
It's a one owner car with a clean carfax from what I just checked on the dealerships site. The black color is very nice as well as the sporty style of the GT.
