not really looking do do anything serious just intake/exhaust mods the gxp does 0-60 in like 5.7 seconds which is plenty fast enough for me and it also has staggered tire widths to counteract the torque steer and somewhat neutralize the handling...add in the bilstein shocks cross drilled rotors paddle shift heads up display and a killer sound system...its pretty sweet...ive always loved em just didnt realize i could actually afford one already

did some reseatch apparently PFYC.com has a turbo kit for it that puts out about 450whp....sick ****






*Drool* i think ive made my decision kids....now the question is black or white??
Shooting for about mid to late april to do this...just in time for the season :-)

I always liked that car. But like Memphis said, V8's belong in RWD.... however its an awesome car!

I'd rock it.

MikeyMo84.......... a very good friend of mine had a GXP Grand Prix.... that thing was a monster! he had an intake, custom exhaust & slight tune from TTP.... i forget the numbers it put down but it was very impressive. he works at a dealership down here and he actually just traded it in (he's getting married and actually downgraded in my opinion). but it was running like 14.0 in the 1/4 before the tune....

thats badass...i dont know how crazy im gonna go as far as performance mods are concerned...pretty much def gonna do the intake/exhaust route as well as some appearance mods (tints/lights/the usual) i basically want something bigger and more comfortable while also v8 powered and pretty fast....i also love how the GXP has paddle shift (i know its a 4 speed...that doesnt bother me) and the heads up display is one of my favorite things ever

Oh and the G8 GT or 1SS Camaro i dont think is valid cause the G8 has four doors and the Camaro is two, so it all depends on what you need the car for, just my to cents

Hope to see alot of people on Thursday
I should be there!
