I like them. The interior styling sucks but outside looks okay but overdue for a change. Fast as phuck with some bolt-ons though.

with the gtp you have the possibility to run up to 400hp with out any major upgrades to strengthen the engine or tyranny, check out Thrasher Engineereing the posobitlys with 3800sc are pretty impressive ...if you have the money.
I can read your mind , and you should be ashamed of yourself:p

The leather interior on them is real nice and they have tons of neat features, I'm just not a fan of the pontoons! -Andy

I don't mind the interior design, but some of the plastic is ultra-cheap and flimsy.
Oh, and the engine might be powerful but it sounds like a vacuum cleaner.

Yeah, They are fast but they stink in everything else. I like the looks of them and everything but they are everywhere. We have a few running low-mid 12's around here. Super cheap to mod!

The Buick 3.8L in the GP is rock solid. I had one in an Olds with over 180K on the clock and it didn't burn a drop of oil.
The GP, though dated, certainly looks a lot better than an Audi, etc. Those boxy cars look like they were designed by a third grader.
The GP is a very good value for the money.
