This is being sold as a "no reserve" High bidder wins, regardless of final bid. The AC system was not working when I purchased the car so I had a completely new AC system installed two weeks ago (A $1,600 value) It works perfect and is under warranty. I moved to Texas in 2008 and decided to get my car dealer license because I love to buy and sell cars and motorcycles. It has always been more of a hobby than a business (thank god, or I would starve) I only buy and sell a couple cars every month and I am very picky about what I get. Read my eBay feedback and you will see that I don’t sell many cars but everyone gets a great deal. I listed this car as a private seller because I do not provide financing options as a large dealer would. I’m a one man operation. You will be very happy with this car. It is solid, drives perfect and would rate in very good shape. I have a clean Texas Title. The paint is original and in good shape for its age. It does have a few scratches near the driver’s door handle and a small ding near the left rear tail light. I took a picture of the ding, it’s very minor. The interior is in very good condition. No cigarette smell, no tears or burns in the seats or carpet. This car will sell to the high bidder regardless if that is $500 or $10,000. Trade ?? I will accept a trade, no junk. If you want to trade you will need to contact me before bidding to establish the value of your trade. I will end the auction early for a good trade of offer but I will never end the auction during the last 24 hours of the auction. I really hope to get what this car is worth but I will trust the auction to bring whatever the market will pay. Whoever wins this bid will be very happy! I will be happy to help you arrange to get the car to your home as long as it has been paid for before it leaves my driveway. I would suggest that you fly into San Antonio or Austin and let me pick you up at the airport. You can drive it home. The winning bidder will need to pay a $500 deposit within 24 hours and the balance within 5 days. You can leave the car here up to 30 days, once it is paid for. This is a true NO RESERVE! High Bidder Wins! I found a few articles on the internet that will help you appreciate what this car is. This was from a Pontiac website: 2000 Grand Prix Daytona 500 Edition Introduced in 1998 the Daytona 500 Grand Prix made an re-appearance again in 2000. This time it carried the NASCAR theme to the next step. Pontiac only produced 2000 Daytonas for the 2000 model year. While it did share its 3.8L 240hp Supercharged engine with the GTP, Pontiac added a host of special features for the Daytona 500 such as: Galaxy Silver paint Unique rear spoiler Special chrome Exhaust tips Chrome 3-spoke 16" wheels Hood heat extractors NASCAR-style roof fences Two-tone Leather seats and door trim Interior door emblems Daytona 500 exterior badging The award-winning 3.8 offers more power yet still delivers about 19 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway, figures that nearly match the base motor. GTP models come equipped with a supercharged version of the 3800 V6 that makes a whopping 240 horsepower. Traction control works in conjunction with four-wheel antilock disc brakes, which include beefy rotors and state-of-the-art calipers for better stopping ability. Power is put through the front wheels via a standard four-speed, electronically controlled automatic transmission. The GTP gets a heavy-duty version that allows drivers to pick "normal" or "performance" shift modes. All Grand Prix models benefit from new hydraulic engine mounts to isolate noise and vibration normally transmitted into the cabin. And all powertrains feature long-life fluids and parts, such as coolant designed to last five years or 50,000 miles, and platinum-tipped spark plugs that last 100,000 miles under optimal conditions. Interiors feature analog instrumentation and large, easy-to-use controls. In the Pontiac tradition, the dashboard is a cockpit-style arrangement with gauges designed to look like those in a jet fighter, all backlit in a soothing red glow at night. This year, Pontiac has dropped the split-bench front seat in SE Sedans, putting the Grand Prix out of contention when considering a six-place four-door. But dual airbags, air conditioning, power windows, door locks and mirrors are all standard fare. And if you like high-tech, you can opt for the EyeCue head-up display, which projects driver data onto the windshield for easy viewing. Should sporty performance be part of your car-buying equation, Grand Prix delivers in the grand American tradition. This Pontiac packs plenty of power and a wide array of safety and convenience features in a package that's as easy to drive as it is on the pocketbook. This article was written in a Houston Newspaper: Grand Prix GTP paces Pontiac TIM SPELL HoustonChronicle.com Cars & Trucks IF the mention of "Grand Prix" or "Daytona 500" sends visions of checkered flags and hyper pit crews racing through your head, then a new offering by Pontiac might be in order. The 2000 Grand Prix's top-line GTP coupe, especially in limited-edition Daytona 500 pace-car form, has the charisma to get racing enthusiasts moving on Pontiac's Wide Track. Limited to 2,000 units, the pace-car replica is an invitation to those liking a ride that shouts exclusivity. Pace-car glitz comes at $2,345 tacked to GTP's $24,280 base price. Features setting the pace-car package apart from the standard-issue GTP are cosmetic, and make the capable performer look even more menacing. Compared to graphics typically splashed across pace-car bodies, checkered bodyside artwork adorning the Daytona 500 model's Galaxy Silver Metallic paint looks understated. Even so, there's nothing ordinary about a replica pace car roaming city streets, and the treatment does turn heads. Other special-edition add-ons include heat extractors on the hood, a pair of black NASCAR-style roof fences, distinctive rear decklid spoiler and custom exhaust tips. The brightest pace-car flash is created with aggressively styled, polished three-spoke aluminum wheels. Even in standard form, GTPs generate flair with a rear decklid spoiler, GT-specific front and rear fascias, integrated fog lamps, custom-look twin-post power mirrors and stunning five-spoke aluminum wheels. Standard tires are P225/60R-16 blackwalls. In decades-old Pontiac tradition these tires are spaced wide apart, enhancing Grand Prix's athletic poise. Front tread width spans 61.7 inches and rear tread width 61.1 inches. Pace-car pizzazz also is impressively conveyed on the inside. Seats are upholstered in custom leather, tailored in an eye-grabbing two-tone scheme. Upholstery is charcoal-colored, with headrests and inserts on upper seatbacks a lighter gray. Embossed high on each front seatback is a Daytona 500 logo. Metallic-look trim on the instrument panel and console round out the special interior effect. Documented proof a Grand Prix is one of the official pace-car replicas comes with a credit-card-sized plaque mounted on the center floor console. It's stamped with a Daytona 500 logo and a notation the car is one of 2,000 units produced. Beyond good looks, the cabin's level of comfort and functionality are high. Front seats are firm and supportive, with cushions moderately bolstered and seatbacks offering a bit more hug. GTP's standard six-way power-adjustable driver's seat, coupled with optional four-way power lumbar support, up the odds of a driver finding the optimum seating position. Nestling into the driver seat in a higher seating position, drawing a bead on the optional Eyecue head-up speedometer display is difficult. For some drivers, only the bottom half of the large digital display can be seen projecting on the windshield's lower-left corner. Of course, the speedometer and othe r analog gauges are in clear view, and illuminate a vivid red-orange for enhanced nighttime visibility. A convenient driver information center also provides updates as it monitors average fuel economy, fuel used, oil life, traction control system status and estimated range on the 18-gallon tank. Filling up after achieving a zero range notification, the computer calculates the Grand Prix can be driven 360 miles on premium fuel without a gas stop. Considering there had to be some fuel left in the "empty" tank, the range was in sync with the car's estimated fuel economy of 18 mpg city and 28 mpg highway. Another readout on the information center is a boost meter, but its use may be limited. There's usually no need for a reminder that the supercharger is doing its job of packing extra air into the GTP's standard 3.8-liter V-6 engine. Grand Prix's supercharged V-6 boosts emotions back to the '60s Pontiac Wide-Trackin' muscle-car days. Generating 240 horsepower at 5,200 rpm and 280 foot-pounds of torque at 3,600 rpm, the engine is matched with a four-speed automatic transmission. Off-the-line responsiveness is especially pleasing. While unleashing a velvety roar, the GTP scoots from 0-60 mph in an estimated 6.7 seconds. Whether the Grand Prix GTP is dressed as a pace car or simply running stealth, its supercharged muscle and old-style Pontiac spirit power the senses into the winner's circle.
