Is it weird I'm really okay with where it's priced

 

[GTPpower]

For 40k miles, that doesn't seem out of line to me. I would spend that if I was a buyer.

I kind of want to buy this damn thing. LOL

 

[greasy]

Those wheels make a monster difference on that car.

 

[Fish]

I don’t like the color, but everything else about the car I dig. If I had the cash to spare I’d probably even overlook the color.

I don’t know a damn thing about a SLP bumper though. The only difference I saw is that it looks like the plate cover was filled in and it’s once solid piece and not something that can be removed.

I had a 98’ Daytona gtp in that same color . Oh the memories.

I don’t remember a slp front bumper as an option to buy. SLP had very little for W body cars back in 97-04 to order. If they did have anything I would have bought or known as i working for a Pontiac dealer in the parts department at time.

I really like this and really want it lol. Take off those stupid ass stickers, slap some 22’s on it and drive it. I had that same hood on mine. My GTP is truly one of the cars I miss. You guys would have hated it though. Had 22’s and sounds you can hear from blocks away lol. Originally I had stick on hood scoops painted to match. Then eventually bought the ram air hood.

 

[DEEZUZ]

Id rock the fuck out of it. I had a 97 coupe

 

[Mook]

Someone buy this

I agree with Shawn on missing that one car, my 98’ gtp is and was one of favorite cars that I have owned I’ve the years, just a fun car that threw everyone off on the performance / fun factor and the interior comfort it had. Best part was working for Pontiac at the time and all the warranty repairs I was able to get covered and parts to replaced / stock piled for later repairs.

I remember talking with Ram Air Tech on a cold air kit, pulley swap etc, and ordering the SLP exhaust.

Had the techs at my dealer do the install all were laughing saying it was a waste to do, they did the installs and the techs were more excited to drive the car then I was.

Looking at the bumper that on the car, it does have different grille inserts then what is oe, allmost like a scoop set up. That looks to be the slp cover.

Iirc SLP didn’t do grills. Plus the grills on the car are on the stock bumper. I’m guessing the bumper off the car is the “SLP bumper”. Which to me looks exactly the same minus the spot for the front license plate.

Shawn1112 we had a guy in ILGPC with a Red GTP who has the Lund scoops. He had them blended into the stock hood and painted. It actually looked good IMO. Cool dude too. I think his name was Lee?

That’s exactly what I had and did.

I kinda wish I kept my GP. Even though it was a GT it was fully optioned out. Either a top swap or a turbo kit would have made me enjoy it more.

Also bought a red fire F1 hood but never had it painted and ended up selling it.

smug you still ever see it around? I’ll grill some good burgers for it back. ??

 

[smug]

Naaaa. I haven’t seen that car in years. I wish I knew where all my old cars have ended up.

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

This is why you never throw anything away or get rid of anything gentleman

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

Nowadays I look on racingjunk for rear wheel drive rolling chassis with approximately the W body wheelbase.

I know exactly how I'm going to fix the rust/trans problems on the TR

 

[m_dogg]

Not a fan coupes but this thing looks aight.

 

[1998gpgt]

Damn. I have a strong amount of want for this. I’ve been half assed looking for a donor body for the engine/trans in my 98. I’m only a few years out from my car snapping right in half from the rust.

 

[m_dogg]

That tune sounds awfully familiar ?

 

[Euro]

This guy's in one of the FWD GM groups I'm in on FB. Very nice car, he has a white 4 door GTP that he was selling a couple weeks back too that was his wife's car. Super nice 70k mile white sedan ?


Also, there was never an SLP front bumper. The extra front bumper he shows a picture of just looks like it has the SD air dam molded into a regular bumper. The bumper on the car currently has those dumb GPO grille inserts, but that's all.
