Well I drove out to Zanesville today to drive one of the only GXP manuals around and I'm no longer interested in the NA motor. The NA was fun but nothing like the turbo GXP. I perfectly agree and think that the 2009 GXP hatchback coupe is the best all around but can't justify the price difference. http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=u&car_id=310316418&dealer_id=104553&car_year=2007&systime=&doors=&model=SOLSTICE&search_lang=en&start_year=1981&keywordsfyc=&keywordsrep=&highlightFirstMakeModel=&search_type=both&distance=75&min_price=&rdm=1321108086487&drive=&marketZipError=false&advanced=y&fuel=&keywords_display=&lastBeginningStartYear=1981&end_year=2012&showZipError=y&make2=&certified=&engine=&dma=COLUMBUS_OH_EA&page_location=findacar%3A%3Aispsearchform&body_code=0&isFlashPlugin=true&transmission=Manual&default_sort=priceDESC&max_mileage=&color=&address=43068&sort_type=priceDESC&max_price=&make=PONT&seller_type=b&num_records=100&cardist=41&standard=false

Yeah I didn't realize the turbo version was almost a 100HP more then the NA. I think I"m going to go test drive a GXP tomorrow.

Care to explain? When I drove it, reminds me a lot of the Fiero which I love, just more modern and better handling.

One of the things I'm looking into is if it would be better to turbo the 2.4 NA motor or get a 2.0 turbo GXP.

I've test driven two Pontiac Solstice's in the past two days and I'm pretty confident that I want to get one. I haven't heard much about these cars and wanted to hear from people that have had them or know about them. What are the pro's and con's? Is there any differences between the years? I haven't driven a GXP model and wondered if it is worth the extra money. Any information would be appreciated.

I could watch Danny MacAskill video's all day.

Nice new car. Sorry to see the SRT go but figured it was going to happen sooner then later.

Thanks again Doc

That's awesome Ray, can't wait to see it.

Ashley and I will be there.

I've been to Mansfield twice and both times were between 2 and 3 hours.

PM sent.

I have a set of 4 - 185/75R14 if you are interested in him.

Sean I have 2 - 225/40 R18 Michelin Pilot Alpine's that look nearly brand new. I also have 2 - 215/45R18 Bridgestone Potenza's that look to be just past half warn.

I also have 4 18's about that size I will have to check exactly what size when I get home if you are still looking for more.

How wide are these from in inches across the rim lip?

Wow Ray, I'm glad that you are alright. I can't wait to see what you have in store next.

Scott I went up there for a few but there weren't to many people up there so we didn't stay long.

Sold. Thanks for the parts

any pics yet?

I don't watch very much TV but I've watched every episode including tonight. Awesome show.

I was denied vacation on that day. Were converting from Lotus Notes to Outlook and Thursday night 70 of the 250 ELT and SLT I support are getting converted.

What brand is the remote bottle opener and do you have any picks. I'm interested if it will fit with my current setup.

I should be on that list since I bought a ticket but work will own me that day and there's no way that I will be able to make it.

+2 been wanting to go down there.
