Just bought a 2007 Grand Prix. 77,000 miles, heated leather, auto climate control, moonroof, factory remote start. White with tan and black interior. Has the ugly alloys on it that look like hubcaps... I'm soooooo excited! It's sooooooo new! Will post pics tomorrow!

They were asking $11,900 for it. Wanted to give me $2500 for the Explorer, and wanted $1000 down. I got it for $10,400, $3500 for the Explorer, and $500 down. Not sure what all is optional... heated leather, power driver's seat, auto climate control, has the nicer cd player with xm, radio controls on the wheel, pretty loaded up DIC, leather wrapped wheel, factory remote start, 16" alloys... has all this stuff, but it isn't a GT. Seems wierd to me, but idk... pictures will be up tomorrow, it was dark out by the time I got it home...

What makes it a GT is the suspension and the gear ratio and a few cosmetics. I bet you have a 2.86 ratio and FE1 suspension in that.

5 button DIC or 3? Heated leather is the way to go on these, the cloth seats are like bricks in comparison... Seems somewhat loaded for a base model. Good deal!

This is the 5th car to be registered in my name in the last 2 months. Selling the LeSabre, and will probably be holding onto the GP for a while.

5 button DIC. It was between this one or a 2008 that looked identical from the outside, but had black cloth seats. Had 90K, and it was $1000 less. It was worth the extra money for the lesser miles and leather to me...

$500. I have a guy that might be coming to pick it up tonight, but if he doesn't get it I'll let you know.

I snapped a couple pics with the cell phone today, I'll post them as soon as i get them uploaded. Edit... photobucket isn't working... will upload soon...

Cody, figure it's a car every time you buy new, or repaint your wheels.
