Trading in their GT for a GXP? When I hear about it and see it, I wish to god i waited then realize, there is no way i could have waited that long but god that is my dream car now lol. Which is funny, cuz most people's dream cars are very exotic and VERY expensive lol. Not me, G8 GXP=my dream car. I'm liking the new ZR1 to ALOT lol. So anybody trading their GT for a GXP?

That's true. I just like the fact that the GXP has a LS3 in it. 6.2 liter V8. It has more potential. GXP is like 6 grand more but for more reason's than just the engine. It has brembo breaks, I think i different tranny and some other stuff that i can't remember but I believe someone did the math and if you add up the cost of putting those things on a G8, your already over the price of a GXP. Not that im trading in my GT. Just was curious if anybody was going to.

With the Gas Guzzler Tax it will be close to 40K.

I'll stick with my GT that was 30.6K, I've got 4.5K into it and it will smoke stock GXPs.

yeah not doubt i intend to be as fast, probably faster than a stock GXP. I used to get much more attention with the car. Now when people see it they go "Oh wow is that the new GXP???" I go "No it's the GT" Then they go "oh, it's crap!" and continue walking. Im like :disgust:

lol that's awsome. I love how people act like it's a night and day difference between the GXP and GT. GT is pretty damn close. I just want brembo's and stiffer suspension on my G8. I feel like the suspension used to be tighter when i bought the car. When the breaks go, im poppin' in brembo's. When the suspension goes, pedders, unless im not that patient and do it before hand. I just need to win the lottery lol.

Not going to trade in for one, but still considering purchasing, and giving Tigger to the wife.
