engine/drive line - nothing

brakes - GT-P gets 6/4 F/R pot Brembos stock (optional on GT, 4/2 Brembos stock)

interior - better seats (that's a matter of opinion, if your a fatty the GT seats will probable be more comfy, the GT-P seats are heavily bolstered)

exterior - shadow chrome highlights (GT gets plain black).

Since you're going second hand, a GT-P is more likely to be optioned up (because most were freebies, except satnav and sunroof), and more likely to be an auto. GT's were more often manual. Having said that, there's no shame in the 6spd auto, it's easily the match to a good driver in a manual.

thanks data_mine.

i was thinking the GTP primarily because of the seats, they are sooooooo good. the car wont be standard for very long though cause i can see a supercharger or TT conversion going onto it mmmmm. im not in the city very often due to work so i like to have something nice to play with when i come back to the city.

<$300

More or less depending on the oil you use. Many dealers will put in a semi-synth, and you have to ask for full synth. In the F6 it isn't going to matter much, and it won't matter at all if you change on the 1/2 services too (7500km).

For a BOSS engine, 15k should be the first time it gets synthetic oil.

F**k that when most tranny shops will do an oil change, filter and pan gasket for 90 bucks.


the oil and filter kit is roughly $90 on its own not including labour :?

I figure it can't be more than a service on a GT.

Get them to check the tightness of the exhaust manifold bolts. Apparently they can work loose on the T's
