Owned it since new
I have owned my 2001 Pontiac GTP 4 door sedan since it was new. It has been a very fun car to drive, and I never grew tired of looking at it. Now one has to step up to a Buick to get the Heads Up display which I use all the time. It had a leaky manifold gasket at 74 K miles which I fixed immediately and so far I have not had the bigger problem with a failed head gasket which some of the GM Dex Cool engines have experienced. I have had to replace some wheel bearings in front, steering gear, and other suspension components. I still drive it to work daily and I have had a mechanic offer to buy it. We drove it in the Woodward Avenue Dream Cruise this summer. It gots lots of smiles.
Tough Black 01 GTP!!!
I got this black GTP for free when it was donated to me from a church organization because of my low income and o badly needed a car! It has been one of the greatest gifts of my life and am very grateful and thankful to GOD! It currently has 170500 miles on it and is black with reasonable amounts of rust for a Michigan car. Since I got the car in August 2015 it had had the front brakes, rotors, left wheel bearing, exhaust resonator, power steering line all replaced. However the supercharger belt needs replacing as well as new headlights, possible new supercharger parts, intake gaskets, air filter, AC compressor, and right passenger outer door panel all needs replacing. Other than repairs when the supercharger is going it's pretty quick and keeps up with newer more powerful cars and gets between 24-28 mpg highway and 16-22 city which could be better. One of the best cars ever had!

Beware of Repairs
List of problems: EGR value replaced at 40k miles ($410), multi-function switch replaced (for faulty wiper blades) at 43k miles ($530), replaced brake rotors at 44k miles ($300), new catalytic converter and transmission at 53k miles ($4,900). Sorry to say, this has just not been a reliable car at all.
GTP is an AWESOME Car!
The performance, comfort, feel, and reliablity of this vehicle is unmatched. Blows the doors off any imports out there in body design and power, and still maintains a reasonable gas mileage to coincide.
Coolest Car I've Ever Driven
I've owned a Jaguar and a BMW and this is still a far better car. It has timeless styling and the dashboard isn't boring at all. I bought it four years old and have only done routine maintenance and replaced the brakes. It is a great car. Mine is a black GTP. The supercharged 3800 is excellent, powerful, and still gets great mileage. Buy one if you have the chance, but I would only go for the GTP.
