Not yet, but I'm sure it will be an option in the coming years, that would be SWEET to see 18" 5 star in chrome...wow!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the 2004 run of the GXP only going to be 2500 units? And then 2005 ramps up to 5000 units?

That'* probably the reason we don't see too many GXP'* around.

Yup, shortly after I got my order, the 2005 run started up....and that was after ordering it in september '03!

As for sightings, I've never seen another GXP other than my own and another GXP that my dealer order at the same time as mine. As for GTO'*, I sure wish they'd come to Canada so I could buy one.

I have not seen any GTO'* on the road yet. But I did test drive a GXP tuesday.........
It was Great!. It was a demo with 7k miles on it. They were asking $29.995....
It was black and clean. But didn't have the heads up display or a moonroof.
But when I hit the pedal, it just flew......... as smooth as a baby bottom.
And I could really tell the difference when I got back in my car............

Seen plenty of GTOs on the road. Old and new for that matter. Of course they don't usually travel in packs but when you float around as much as i do you tend to see alot of cars. I'm not sure of what a GXP looks like except maybe from a commercial but my bro told me he was probably going to get one. So maybe I'll get him to join up and mod his ride up for him.
