    Sadly, it is time to find a new home for my GP. It's been a great car, flawlessly maintained, wicked fun to drive. Interior and exterior are in perfect condition. The car was Miss November in the 2012 MA calendar.
    Stats:
    33k
    GP floor mats(never used) and all season mats
    ALTA CAI
    Schroth Quickfit harness
    tinted windows
    all original paperwork
    $25,000

    PM me for detailed pictures of the car.

    Yeah, I know. I truly love the car, but I want to upgrade to something that I can really push, without fear of ruining it. Putting a cage and lots of track mods would just devalue the car. And unfortunately, I can't keep the GP and have a track rat. She's a great car!

    I forgot to add that it has new front brake pads, fluids have all been changed, and I had the windshield replaced last year, it wasn't broken, just pits. It's an awesome car!

    I'm not sure yet. I want something rearwheel drive, around 300hp, sporty but not heavy, nimble - NOT A MIATA. I really like the Scion/Toybaru triplets, but might wait until the full track version is released. $31k for a six point cage, race seats, and harnesses is a pretty sweet deal. Or I may just keep the GP and lust over other cars. I'm in no hurry to sell the car, but I do need to upgrade.

    Yep, I still have it. Like I said, I'm in no hurry to sell it. But if you want an even more awesome car for MMW this year, she's the one!

    Giving this a bump. I know it's been a while, but I'm serious about selling the car now. It's got 42K miles.
    NEW PRICE!
    $19000.

    If I had the money I'd be on the way there to pick up your GP. Can't believe it hasn't sold yet. Good luck with the sale.

    Yeah, I wasn't supra ready to let her go. But it's time to move on to other motoring adventures. AND I'd love to see it go to someone on the forums!
