You're slighty downgrading the interior in quality, but if you have an SE you're gaining more options. Also you're getting a faster car, that you can modify farther then any Bonneville.

Up in toys, yes. Ride and overall luxury, even trade at most. Most like they GTP will be down a notch considering it'* meant to be sportier. Stiffer ride and such. Not the big car "float" we're used to...

Part of the reason I like full size is the "float". Hit a bump in the road, know about it a quarter mile later....
But them Grand Prix'*, specially the new ones, are slick lookin' little cars. Just don't like the tail lights myself...

My '93 Crown Vic did that, and my '82 Caprice Classic, too. I miss those rides....
But I think her trade-off is practical, personally.

I've owned both and I will say as nice as the GTP was the SSEi is more to my taste. Either can be stupid fast with the right mods but the Bonnie has a much more luxury touring feel. The GTP was fast and you felt it, the Bonnie is a much nicer ride. If your going from the SE to the GTP based on the speed dif, try an SSEi before you decide. My 2 cents.
