GP 434 Up for SALE! Washington D.C.

I’m selling GP434 because I’ve decided on doing some long-term world travel and need the money (I may not come back). It’s been driven less than 9,000 miles per year, having a total of 24k miles. It’s in tip-top shape as I’ve done my best to take care of it. No accidents and flawless Carfax report. I am asking $26,500 OBO. The price is a bit higher than stock GP, as I’ve made some very tasteful and useful additions listed below that are not included in the stock GP:

• $3,000 Pioneer stereo system with tweeters, amp and 10” subwoofer in the trunk. I used to DJ a few years back and needed stellar sound when driving. The GP's small size is optimal for this setup and it can literally sound like a nightclub. Music lovers will really appreciate this.
• Automatic, retractable, Pioneer Audio/Visual entertainment touch-screen with built-in GPS and IPod connector (plays DVDs too). You control the IPod, GPS system, Sirius radio, Bluetooth, AM/FM radio, DVD playback, from one impressive touchscreen. This little gadget really has "WOW" factor, as the touch-screen automatically comes out from the dash in a sleek and sexy manner from the push of a button a la James Bond.
• Changed the stock front grill to a more appealing and sporty cross-hatch grill that matches the lower grill (see photos below). This setup looks much nicer as the two grills now match.
• New front GP summer tires (~$900 with labor). Installed Fall '09. These things have amazing grip and traction.

In all honesty, the GP has provided me with the most enjoyable driving experience I've ever had... it's a head-turner, I receive a lot of looks and compliments, it's a FAST ride, EXCELLENT on cornering and turns, and to hear the supercharger kick-in with its high-pitched whine is literally a joy to behold...

It'll be a sad day when I do let the GP go, as it's easy to fall in love with, but I've come to point where I have to put my life on the scale balance and make some sacrifices. PM me if interested or if you'd like to see more pictures. As painful as may be, I would like to sell this ASAP.
