If he really wants to raise the market value he should start buying up all the grand prixes in the US, and then all similar models.

Wow, FastPacedGTP got really sexy looking car. Too bad he doesn't own it anymore. After see my summer car worth for $5100 from kelly blue book. I knew my car value will go down but I'm not worry about that. I always keep it until wrecking. If engine blown.. get other 3.1 I'm pretty much keeping car many years guy. My mom has 1997 Toyota Corolla since 1998. She still have it. My dad has Chevy Caprice for 15 years until engine blown. I want to keep my both cars until who know how long. There are some 1997 model still running around after 13 years. I kind feel better to know my both cars will running more longer.

A clean 40th anniversary w/ 26,325 is impressive. I would argue that 9k for a limited edition is high but not by much. Problem is its not original. Since he customized it, its worth a good amount less. If he super customized it w/ intercooler then 9k makes sense. Yes, if the non-limited editions sell very cheap this may hurt the limited ones. But its not the fault of the sellers. Its the BB value of the car. BTW, I think he got the message. He's probably going to lay off. http://www.clubgp.com/newforum/tm.asp?m=...ode=&s=#5198580

If engine blown.. get other 3.1 Really? Another 3.1? A 3.8 would be sweet. They're just as easy to find as a 3.1.

[/b]Get best shape 3100 engine... remove my polish upper intake manifold & valve covers. Install them. That's it. Pretty simple If I want to get that 3.8 engine. It will cost me 2000 buck from what morad charge for 3800 engine with tranmission. So 3100 engine is pretty cheap to swap. I know my engine won't blown but who know. I thought it was funny that guy won't reply this. I seen him post other thread but not this.

3.8 engine+trans would be very similar price to 3.1; you can easily find them $600-1000 depending on mileage. Just saying.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/3-8l-L67-...Q5fAcc essories That's from Morad price that everyone always suggust this. Not sure where you get idea from 600 to 1000 buck? If it is on local junk yard then that's hard to tell if engine is bad or not. My local you pull and pay junk yard engine complete is for $200 buck but I don't have any pickup truck. Sound like a great deal but I don't own garage, engine tool like rest of you.
