In a month or two I will most likely be selling my rd2 due to moving up in the performance cars, going for the straight up muscle of the Pontiac GTO with the 5.7 LS1 corvette engine putting out 350hp. I am currently looking for a Manuel one but it is hard to find them for sale close to home. But anyways i will more than likely be selling my Tib because of the miles on it anyways. will probably be looking for $4500 obo when i sell it and i will post it on here when i do. And it will come will all the mods and factory equipment. Mods if i put this in the wrong place move it for me, but seeing as how i am not selling right at this moment i figured it would be better in here. If anyone might be interested in a month or two and let me know and i will provide pics and a list of mods for you.

please dont.
if your going to get anything, get the LS2 engine, putting out 400bhp, instead of that lousy 350hp, you'll be sad when a 350z spanks you.
the ls2 model has a bunch of wheel hop stock, but its waaaaaaaay better than the ls1 engine models.
i think it was 2003-2004 had the ls1 and the 2005-2006 had the ls2, im not exactly sure though.

just wait, look around, and you'll find yourself a ls2 manual somewhere nearby.

1. that's an upgrade?

2. Who are you?

I would never, EVER EVER buy a Pontiac. Every single one I've ever been in, and that's a lot, falls apart in the interior. I mean BAD.

04+ Pontiac Grand Prix's are pretty good in my experience. My dad has one and I like it. decent stock power. Kind of a big car tho...

My brother had an LS1 GTO and the thing was really sweet. Really nice interior and great power. Fun car to drive but gas mileage is terrible if you drive it right.

def. a nice car, and a very nice upgrade fing02.gif

350hp is always nice.. the ls2 would have more power, but either way, its a HUGE hp upgrade.

my brother has a 08 grand prix GT. no GTO but its VERY nice. if i could, id sell my SRT4 for a grand prix GT or a GTO. but i really like getting decent gas mileage right now. haha

okay so today I went and got my gto. It is a 2004 gto with the ls1 engine and has a couple mode to it. K&n intake and some cams and has 27000 miles on it and I picked it up for $13000 and is worth on kbb $19000. It is an amazing car and I know this thread is useless w/o pics so I will post some tommorrow.
