UWIautoparts Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 If anyone is interested in buying a 1990 TSTE let me know. We are located in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The body is decent, but the turbo is seized and was driven for awhile with the air intake disconnected from the turbo inlet. Engine compartment is covered with carbon. If anyone is interested, please call me at 269-345-1183, my name is Jaret, or you can e-mail me at agoatlives@hotmail.com. The price is negotiable. It has leather seats and original 16" painted wheels. Color is white. I do not know the mileage as of yet...we just got it in a few days ago. I should know more by tomorrow. Please don't hesitate to call, any calls are greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UWIautoparts Posted February 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I went out and started it this morning...I put a battery in it and she fired right up, good oil pressure, no knocking. Asking price is 1,200.00, negotiable plus Michiagn tax and title. 6% tax, $15.00 title. Photos: http://photobucket.com/albums/f344/UWIautoparts/ 139,500 miles, factory moonroof, leather. Interior could use a good scrubbing. Power steering and brake booster inop. Door handle, driver's side front broken, inside and out (imagine that) Feel free to call me, I will be at the shop Thursday and Saturday 269-345-1183 My name is Jaret.[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbtk2 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 $1200 for that!?!?!? LMFAO!!!!! Sorry, I know no flaming, but that definately does NOT look like a $1200 car to me. The low coolant and SES lights are on. I hope the antifreeze is just low and it doesn't have a radiator leak, radiators are NOT cheap for the turbo cars. And an SES light when you're selling a car is typically not a good thing. Might want to check and see what code it is. Look at my sig, with 69k on it and the rarer red color mine was $1800 and my power brakes and power steering both worked with no SES or low coolant light.....

Guest TurboSedan Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 don't take it the wrong way Jaret, these cars are very special but their value isn't up there (yet). maybe they will be worth more in 10 years but for right now the Turbo Grand Prixs are barely worth more than a regular Grand Prix. IMO, $700 OBO would be a fair asking price but you're likely only going to get $500 due to the huge list of problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 That poor TSTE!!! I think $300-500 is more likely what you will get out of it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TurboSedan Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 just got an email from him: "I'll sell it for $700 plus tax title. Come on out and get it." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 just got an email from him: "I'll sell it for $700 plus tax title. Come on out and get it." hell the PS pump and the "brake booster" are inop too!! Realistically that car should be parted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pontiac6KSTEAWD Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 not parted. It is quite salvageable in its current condition. but The price is the problem. True it is worth more in parts. but its worth more to the TGP comunity whole. Thats my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joberlee Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Makes mine look like a pretty good deal doesn't it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I'd consider buying it if I could drive it home to Jackson (~1hr from K-Zoo) or Canton, but it wouldn't offer enough to claim it based on his asking price....free bump though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bossman429 Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Good luck selling it. Really, if it was well cleaned, it wouldn't look too bad. $700 is probably a fair price for it since it DOES run, but be ready to haggle, because I'm sure whoever buys it will want to go lower. I can never stomach parting out a car of less than 4000 production unless it is totalled, which is why Josh HAS his TSTE in the first place. My stepdad, and many people told me to part that car out, and save some spare parts for my own car. As soon as I hooked a jumper pack to it, and it roared to life, I couldn't even consider parting it out. Now I'm glad I didn't! I can't wait to see what Josh does with that car. He has a lot more resources for fixing the car than I do/did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a lot more resources for fixing the car than I do/did. The thing is it does run but he has said nothing about it building boost. My educated guess (looks like it had a turbo fire) would tell me the car does not make boost, which to me makes it worth a lot less.

T25's aren't cheap... they are if you buy them off here... parts are only worth anything to j-body guys, and even they're not interested in T-25s.. most of them have moved on.

Personally I agree with the j-body guys and wouldn't use a T25 anyways, however on here they still go for like $200+ from what I've seen, good ones anyways. A few years ago my dad paid like $500 to get his rebuilt on his TGP. Shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
