i wouldnt say that, yout GXP runs about 15.5 stock and there are 97 and 98 black SSEi'* runnin 15.0 and 14.9.....bone stock as you can get, and i witnessed one of the runs personally

We're not dissing your car or your choice. We're just stating the facts, try not to take it personally.

you sure about that?

gothca ya covered bro

The stock numbers here have been verified. And I've personally driven one of those cars, as well as a Black '05 GXP. I like the looks of the GXP, but not impressed with the performance.

Even my '93 runs better than a 15.5 stock GXP time, and with relatively few mods. I gaurantee Ryan'* 98 (which I personally verified as bone stock and drove) would kill a bone stock GXP.

My personal opinion is the 'look' of the GXP went in the right direction, but not the powertrain.

if you take the 97+ SSEi against the 2000+ SSEi and they are both bone stock....the 97+ SSEi will spank the 2000+ over and over. The 2000+ gives up about 400+ pounds to the 97+
and your GXP prolly is the same as the SSEI myabe even a little heavier

No doubt that the stock GXP is faster than a comparative SSEi.......6.5 versus 7.3 second 0-60. The road feel of the two, however, is far different. The SSEi had a faster-off the line power to it, since the torque of the 3.8 is at a low RPM. The GXP, since it uses a N* , has a more patient acceleration feel . It feels slower, but really isin't .
It'* not much heavier than a SSEi , and there really isn't anything to add. New engine and tranny, maybe. And the rims might be lighter than the SSEi'* stock chrome-plated rims.

wow, a fountain of false information right there. trust us, it'* slower
