I bought a 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix Limited Edition! 

Please don’t drive this in the winter,it’s way too nice to ruin it with all the road salt

My first car after high school 2007, I DEFINITELY took for granted, was a ‘97 GP GTP Supercharged sedan. It’s 2024 and just learned it needed PREMIUM GAS!! I didn’t know what I had and I think my dad was banking on it. With what I know now I really miss my Della. Great video my guy

Keep it stock and keep it mint :) They may never approach 60s/70s muscle value, but I have a feeling people will start appreciating the badass-ness of these types of car soon. For now, those who know what’s up, know what’s up 🤫

The 3800 is touted to be indestructible, one of the best engines ever made.

That's a really pristine example of a rare edition you have there. My 2001 GT is the same color, but with a tan interior. Something to seriously consider is to have the car oil-coated with something like the Krown or NH Oil rustproofing treatment, even if you don't intend to drive it in the winter. When I brought my Grand Prix, I didn't realize how vulnerable the rockers are on the W-body GM cars. The platform has been the same one from 1988-on. The rockers on mine are history, and it's only the ground effects pieces that hide the fact. I only paid $1700. for it eight years ago, so I can't complain.

It's beautiful man! Take good care of it.

I really want to swap the GTP engine into a Pontiac Trans Sport Dustbuster van. It would be fun to surprise people with that. Too bad it would be hard to find one that hasn’t been driven into the ground.

Gorgeous car! That is one to keep in that condition. A far FAR better car than anything newer that 2010. Trust me

Beautiful car. I own a 2000 GTP up here in MI and I got mine from Florida because even 12 years ago when I bought it I couldn't find one that wasn't rusted out.

Any of the FWD "modern" era Grand Prixs are always a great buy if you're looking for a cheap daily or something of that nature. I believe they came out in 1990 and continued up until 2009 or so. Very reliable, cheap, and easy to work on. One of my friends had a 96 Grand Prix sedan that had over 300k miles on it and no engine or transmission issues. The rust finally ate the trailing arm mounts off, and he decided to not fix it and scrap it. These W-body grand prixs are also known to be very good demo derby cars as they have a very solid chassis.

Wow! What a cool car ❤

Great video. Would love to see a part 2 with driving impressions!

I come from 60s muscle ownership back in the day, got my lic. in the mid 70s and bought muscle. I test drove one of these GPs with a supercharger when new, they drove nice but the V6 still provided no where near the Ooomph I was looking for in a performance car. I wasn't completely again satisfied in pure performance again until I purchased my current car being a 2017 Camaro Super Sport with 6 speed manual Trans. That Futha Mucker is pure performance and driving precision fun. Blows away anything from the 60s, though I still respect all those 60s muscle for doing what they did with without computers, supercharges, 3 and 4 speed gear boxes and bias ply tires. Add a modern transmission and modern tires to the old muscle cars and they would be even faster being closer to modern performance.

Very nice. I always liked this body style of the Grand Prix. I had a silver 03 GTP until the transmission gave way at just over 85K. So I got a GTO instead.

Wish i didn't live in MN maybe I'd still have 2 of the 3 Grand Prixs I've owned over the years. Had a 97 gtp 2dr, 00 gt 4dr and a 07 gt supercharged 4dr. I miss my old Pontiacs

Owned a 01 Regal GS for over 5 years. Best thing you can do for these things for highway ride is get a solid front sway bar. Really improves steering response. Nice ride man!

love the rear end

Beautiful car. I remember how I fell in love with its smaller brother - Grand Am, when I saw one of the Lethal Weapon parts and the chase scene. These cars were completely unknown in Europe. I envy you this beautifully maintained classic.

The spoiler was only on the Limited Edition. It was different than the one used on the Special Editions from 2000, 2001, and 2002. The Dual, Dual Exhaust is the same as the 2000, 2001, and 2002 Special Editions. The 2003 was a short model year, as the 2004 came out in March of 2003. Your car is missing the engine cover. The dealer removed it as part of a safety recall.. Enjoy your Grand Prix. I had two of them, and I regret selling my 2001. BTW I didn't see the heated seat control on the console in the left front area. Mine had a heated driver's seat, but no passenger's seat. I don't know why Pontiac did that. My currrent Bonneville has both front seats heated.

that thing looks brand new! congrats! i hope to have a low low mile one some day my current one has 158k miles which still isn't bad for a car from 1997!

I remember when these came out my best friend grandfather had one brand new. I was 13 at the time cool car 🚗

Nice care in great shape would love to have it, I used have a white one same year just standard grand prix though of course.

I just picked a 03 gtp almost exactly a week ago, I just about fell in love with it when I bought it. Its almost identical to yours except it has a boost gauge and an equalizer for the head unit

My parents had a 2000 Grand Prix GT I learned to drive in that car. Thanks for the trip down memory lane take care of it! If you ever want to get rid of it hit me up haha

That's a good car/ survivor! Be glad it's got the naturally aspirated 3.8L V6 as that engine is even today one of the BEST engines GM ever made! Basically bulletproof. Keep it nice as it's indeed a modern classic and this is coming from a Ford dude here! I own a 2010 Ford Fusion SPORT first gen body style and it's basically a rare find now if any in good shape. Living in NE OH most cars from the first part of the decade have bit the dust due to rust. Mines stored winters was bought brand new by my Dad. Also a sweet car that's underappreciated.

Loved and miss my 98 GT. That exhaust you have is one of the nicest sounding I’ve heard. I had the wide track sport package. The normal spoiler is flush mounted and no peaks on top. You can do a lot to it from programming to intake, internals, bolt ons etc from ZZP. Nice find. I did a good amount and even prototyped a set of rockers from ZZP. Their extended range set. I’d love to find a GTP though. Modified, they’re sleepers.

I had a silver 2001 Special Edition GT. I miss it!!! It had the two toned seats as well, but it was all leather. I did prefer the spoiler on the Special Edition mores, but I thought these were pretty cool!

Congrats man

If you don't like creaky GM plastic interiors, you just need more cam and exhaust noise.

Always loved those cars even now I love them

10:24 I need my lights to flash on my 97 when the trunk opens / lock unlock as well i hope i can figure that out that'd be neat

I love my 02 4th GTP. old couple owned be prepared for certain things need done.

Love the car! I always wanted a Grand Prix 2 door coupe but never owned one. I had a number of Pontiacs such as Grand Am's, Sunfire, and Sunbird. Would like to find one like the one you own in mint condition but would be rare in 2024.

Always wanted one of these. They weren't particularly fast even back then but they looked pretty damn good and everyone wants a supercharger.

Thats sick man..i was looking at a 04 gtp with the supercharger...keep yours stock and og as its such good shape. I got the fake carbon fiber on the inside of my subie. Its decent. The interior i prefer on the 04 model though to be honest but again awesome find! Up here in Canada, these are all rusted out and gone.

Garage it. And leave it. Preserve it. It's amazing. I alwayssssss wanted one of these. I had a indy edition impala SS for a while, 2004. I love this. Well done

Dang, I live 20 miles north of Dayton. Maybe I'll see you at a car show. I'm a Pontiac guy.

The 3.8 Series 2 is bullet proof not so much from its trans as it is weak. Great car, that can run high 12 with a few bolt ons.

This is my favorite body style of grand prix

Amazing find. Having owned 4 late model GPs... I sure miss them. The 3800 is supposedly one of the most reliable engines.

this is a nice upgrade over a Corolla, and they don't even MAKE this anymore

I like your content and the car. The constant jumping cuts and zooming in and out are giving me seizures though. Your channel has potential but I suggest smoothing things out - the spaz style video cuts are killing it!

Yea the 2004 stereo does plug right in had 2 gtps and the 17s rims fit also

12k for a 6th gen GT is wild, you're definitely paying for its being a "Special Edition" makes me miss my 98 Daytona Blue GTP, still rocking a GP though currently running around in a 2008 Grand Prix GXP that I bought in September 2022 with 128,000 for $6200

like these in supercharged version had a GTP and a impala SS of that gen years ago reliable and peppy now i got a 19 5.0 mustang and a 07 LS4 impala as a winter beater

I had one for about a year and a half, and it was an amazing car. I loved it. But a deer thought it was too nice for me.

Guide was a GM headlight plant in Monroe, Louisiana.

that is the FIRST na 3800 ive ever seen! ive owned MANY 3800 w-body vehicles and im kind of sad and impressed

I’ve had several grand prixs 👍 05 now with 360,000 kms it’s nearly time lol

Very beautiful GP! You don't have the optional heated driver seat though. The rocker switch for it would be right in front of the shifter where that oval spot it. I just bought an 04 Dale Jr supercharged Monte Carlo SS. It's my 5th GM W body with the 3800. My first was a 98 Grand Prix GTP. Yours is stunning!! Love it man and congrats

No heated seat control button means no heated seats. (They'd never be designed to operate passively.)

Most of those cars did not rust out, by 2003 GM was rust proofing the steel in the steel production process, plus lots of the body panels were plastic so I call BS.

❤😮still have m'y 2001 gt Pontiac 👌🏻 is great

My problem with these pontiacs are they are pretty close to what you can get a c5 corvette for

enkei actually made those wheels btw. If I were you I would top swap that car. If I remember correctly the 2003's had a unique 4T65 trans that was exclusive to ONLY that year so that kinda sucks. P.S being you have the nice Bose Audio system I believe you can not change the head until unless you rip out the entire system with speakers don't bash me if im wrong though, it's been 13 years since I owned a GTP. Nice car though!

Wow.

awwesomew car i got one in 2011 in red two door with 50k miles on it for 11,900. it was very nice to drive

Well done, bro!

Sadly doesn't look like you have heated seats. My 04 has them they just stopped working I'm sad 😂😂

My first car was an 03 gtp midnight blue

Shit, I’d rather have that besides my 2004 GTP Comp G!

I have the 2000 Daytona 500 gtp

You should rust proof it

Its a beaut Clark

Did put a modern headunit in my older Sunfire, wich was about the same era car as yours. So yeah, totally possible. One thing is it won't fit the dash properly.

They alright 3500 or 3800

Paw-nee-yak

To bad its a 4 door grocery getter

Sell it to me

Its not a gtp. Its just standard gt model

Thanks Goodness, it was Limited. .

automatic transmission...Waiter, check please!

You bought a certified headache with a side of lemon!

Of course these are the mouth breathers that think these are good cars it's front wheel drive it's a chevy corolla
