somewhat of a noob here!

well i made a post awhile ago...but never really did much with my GTP. actually at the time i was driving a 400+whp srt4. then traded it in for my GTO. anyways i co signed on the GTP for my ex, but we split up early this year. well long story short...she cant afford it anymore so i took it back and have been driving/having fun with it as a daily. im not trying to go crazy with this car since i put most of my money in the goat. but i would like to mod it just a little more than i have and break into the 13's.

btw my name is Sean...here are some pics of my rides

Yeah. I just went on Autotrader and the lowest within 200 miles of me I could find was priced at 14844.00. From there I think I only saw two others and they were around the 20K mark. But in my opinion, why regress in your vehicle? Is it eating you up that bad? But with the 05 models (25-29K), forget it. That's what the car should have been priced brand new.
