Jeff M Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Just a few Turbo Grand Prixs for sale at AutoTrader (2-door and 4-door) always some here, sometimes many more and its easy to go through a long list, just go into "More Search Options" and pick "V6", then when looking at the list, look for a VIN that starts with "1G5" its that number "5" that seperates the men from the boys (man these links sure make the screen wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide ) http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=191377963&dealer_id=69899&car_year=1990&search_type=used&make=PONT&transmission=&distance=0&model=GP&address=55347&make2=sel_one&certified=&advanced=y&max_mileage=&max_price=&bkms=1131436363156&min_price=1&end_year=1990&color=&start_year=1989&drive=&isp=y&engine=6+Cylinder&doors=&fuel=&lang=&cardist=821 http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=190761622&dealer_id=57006719&car_year=1990&model=GP&bkms=1131436363156&make2=sel_one&lang=&isp=y&start_year=1989&engine=6+Cylinder&certified=&fuel=&search_type=used&distance=0&make=PONT&color=&min_price=1&drive=&max_mileage=&address=55347&advanced=y&end_year=1990&doors=&transmission=&max_price=&cardist=1112 http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=187399204&dealer_id=56741605&car_year=1990&model=GP&bkms=1131436363156&make2=sel_one&lang=&isp=y&start_year=1989&engine=6+Cylinder&certified=&fuel=&search_type=used&distance=0&make=PONT&color=&min_price=1&drive=&max_mileage=&address=55347&advanced=y&end_year=1990&doors=&transmission=&max_price=&cardist=461 http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=190773265&dealer_id=56981597&car_year=1990&search_type=used&make=PONT&transmission=&distance=0&model=GP&address=55347&make2=sel_one&certified=&advanced=y&max_mileage=&max_price=&bkms=1131436363156&min_price=1&end_year=1990&color=&start_year=1989&drive=&isp=y&engine=6+Cylinder&doors=&fuel=&lang=&cardist=207 Jeff M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joberlee Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 from the second link above: DOES ANYONE know what this car is?? Its a limited made pace car for the 1993 INDY 500...ONLY 1200 made. MCLAREN F1 and his associates designed this car. Includes the standard 3.1 Fuel Injected with a INTERcooled Turbo. The interior is also all leather seating with fully adjustable racing style seats. Hurry down and look at it before its tooo late. DOnt forget all my prices ARE negotiable! :shock: so we have a limited edition 1990 Grand Prix made for the 1993 Indy 500... What is this guy smoking? And why isn't he passing it over here? oh, and they only made 1200 of them. I really wish the guys at the little used car lots would do a little research BEFORE lieing to there potential suckers, oops I mean customers.

Jeff M Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 2 more TGPs just popped up on ebay (must have heard of talking ). Both have around 150k miles, one is red and other is black, nice to have both to choose from 8) This black one from Road Island has cloth seats and a sunroof and is a few bucks than the other, but the water left on the car's paint gives it that natural "wet look" Looks like the crossover pipe has been made rigid. RI has snow so might be some salt flavored metal with that car but the owner states no snow/salt exposure so not sure, would just have to get under the car to tell. Seller is new to ebay so no feedback history yet: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4588334229&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3ASS%3AUS%3A1#ebayphotohosting This red one is from Georgia, I have one from Georgia, no salt there so should be some very clean metal and engine bay parts 8) . Has the best looking leather seats I have seen in a long time :shock: Has the Sunroof too. Everything is running proper and pipe has been repaired with flex joints. Seller has 100% feedback on a 148 score. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4588603446&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3ASS%3AUS%3A1 Wonder if the guy that posted this question is going to say thanks or anything for the help, :shock: Did we help :?: Did he like any of these cars? Did he buy one yet? Jeff M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GutlessSupreme Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 "Road" Island? come on man that black one's been on there maybe twice already.. I guess his reserve's pretty high. Nonetheless, it probably wouldn't hurt to check it out this weekend.. I really want a black TGP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff M Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 "Road" Island? come on man So someone caught my joke, "Road" eh about the only way I get a response from people I want my state named after some to do with cars, I do like the state that is "Live Free or Die", thats cool! You should check out my Fender Roads Guitar (Fender Rhodes that is 8) ), actually its an old Jackson Charvel . Jeff M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samiamryan Posted November 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I do appreciate the help. I love this site. everytime i have a problem with my GPT, I aways get great help asap. However, none of those cars are close to Wis. I'll keep looking and keep trying e-bay and autotrader. Thanks for the help, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bossman429 Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Ohhhhhhhh....I could buy that 3rd one in St Louis, and have 2 TSTEs again. Pffft....I barely drive the one I have now I'll have to go take it for a cruise this weekend, been about a month since it has moved. Getting caught up in the GTS trade left all my attention to Josh's new TSTE/my old 2nd one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnatGoSplat Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 What price range are you looking at? Under 100k is kind of rare, but I do have one that only has 86k! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick5638 Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Yea what's your price range? There are still some really rare low mileage TGP's out there that could be bought for the right price, I'm guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samiamryan Posted November 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 as far as the price range goes, it depends on what Im getting and how low of miles. Id like to stay under 5 grand. I see these for sale on ebay and some are very nice. The problem is is that there are next to none of these in Wisconsin. The one I have is the only one Ive seen in wis. (I saw one parked in Chicago...thats it.) They seem to be in Penn, Mich, and the New England area. I was just curious if anyone knows of any for sale in Wisconsin or if there was a way to look it up. I work 10-12 hour days 5 to 6 days a week. That doesnt leave me much time to travel just for a car. If any of you seen anything or any of you are from wisconsin, I'd like to know were I can et my hands on one in solid running condition. Thanks again for your time.

Rick5638 Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 LOL, I know what you mean, although I've put about 1500 miles on mine in the last month which is way more than I normally drive it. I'm seriously thinking of selling it or the 300M though. I really ned to think about it. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've put only about 120 miles on mine in the past month or so. It just clicked over to 74K. 8) I would like to get another TGP, but that will probably be a while down the road...
