• 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.

WTT 2002 GRAND AM GT coupe for 2004 or 2005 grand prix gtp comp g AND CASH



Well selling it by private party is better but you might lose the opputtunity on the Gtp! Its. A good price for it. I was dumb and pAid 9500 for mine off a dealer with 87k original miles. 2 year loan and im done in august

I agree with trade it in at a dealership, remove the stuff you added subs, radio, underglow ect. but not the remote start. Clean it up super good.
 


9500 got me 430 a mo payments. Make sure its in good mechanical order tho! I bought mine and mos later i had to change motor mounts, gaskets, etc.

damn thats awful. thats a intense payment plan. I'm afraid a dealership will lowball the **** out of me. I work a minimum wage job, its blue booked at 4K im sure a dealership would give me like 2,500. thats a big difference if I sell it myself and then find a comp G. thats 1,500 i could put towards my next car. I'm 19 with no credit score. If i sell my car i should have 6K not much but i was planning on getting a small loan. what do you guys think?
 
Yes sell your car first! I regret it man but i have a good paying full time job so i learned from my mistake. I traded in an 2001 eclipse gt for it and now i want a new car. I wasted my money and i could of bought a new car at the time and i would have been good. If i can do it all over again i would of never done it. Don't get me wrong i love my car but it just wasn't worth all the hassle. I put in alot of maintenence since ive had the car and i never feel like its 100 percent yet. Still have to replace steering rack again and supposedly gaskets leaking again. So i have had alot of thinking that im just wasting money!!!! Never again will i do it just some advice of my experience

your always gonna have hassles buying a used car that you dont know. read the buying a 3800 thread. then decide if its something you wanna do
 


Thanks fellas I appreciate it! Yeah I agree you won't get blue book. I'm going to ask blue book and go from there. I have decent upgrades with remote start underglow etc. I'll probably take the subs out and put the stock stereo back in. I'll let somebody talk me down to 36 or 37
 
Wbody its just what gm calls em. Fbody are camaros etc. and i use premium gas. I used to run 87 on it tho and it runs fine. The 04 and up cam use 87 just the youll lose some performance so i switch on and off. When im good in money i use 91 feel much better. But idk if comp ga require 91. I don't think so

I've paid cash for all my cars except one. You'd be lucky to get $2500 out of your car realistically. Just look for a fixer upper

If your car is supercharged you have to use at least 91+ octane, regular 87 is only ok for n/a cars. Period.
 
Thats true! I thought it was okay for the supercharged ones can too. No wonder my car was having acceleration issues. Now im all 91 and its runs great!

Hopefully that did not happen! But now i know no more 87! Im so dumb when i read the information on the car before i bought it i understood it wrong and thought 87 was fine. Well ill make sure not to make that mistake again
