Default New GXP

The only GXP I've seen is the one I bought 10 days ago. I had a 2001 SSEi, but I was hit head on by a Cadillac Seville about 3 weeks ago. I walked away without a scratch but the car was totalled. I brought the insurance check into a Pontiac dealership and used as a down payment with the rest financed at 0% for 5 years. I got it fully loaded except for the CD changer with the Crimson Tintcoat paint. It looks and drives great!!

Looks like we have our first GXP owner/member. Congrats. Hope to see pics soon so we lowly SSEi owners can oogle at your prize.

Yeah, I just about got in a HO today on my way to work. Was running a minute behind so I was going a little fast. Came up behind 2 cars doing 45 in a 55 zone. Had to get around, so I looked for oncoming traffic and didn't see any headlights (sun is just coming over the horizon @ 5:45 AM) and just as I'm going by the second vehicle (by this time I was up around 90) some lights flash from a car driving without it'* lights on and it'* still dark. F'n jerks. Why the hell aren't the lights on. Jeez. Well I barely got around as the oncoming car surpised both me and the two cars I passed as we pretty much all swerved to the right. Next thing after I get back in my lane I slow down to about 61-62 and about 1/2 mile later I met two cops with the e-lights on, and both hauling a** just like the two we saw on the 401 in Toronto.

Well, since I ordered my GXP in September, I think that I should be the one with the new GXP first but GM decided that Canada isn't as important as ye ol' 50 states. Anyway, my car is supposed to be built on the 26th of April.....FINALLY!!!!! This car better be good since I'm going to pay 50 grand for it and waited 8 months for it!!!! I'm pissed.

I'll have my camera ready. Livonia isn't too big of a city.

Oops Sorry. I thought about it after I posted and just as I was walking out the door to get some milk I remembered someone else (you) had special ordered one already.
Anyhow, I expect to see pics of yours too.
So in other words we have two 2004 Pontiac Bonneville G-Series here.
Looks like the *-Series (SE, SLE, SSE, SSEi) is on it'* way out the door, SSE first in 99, and now the SSEi in 2003.
