Grand Prix GXP V8

Hi. Awhile back we saw pics of the "new" Grand Prix GXP V8 in the making. But now I never hear any more about it. I thought it was coming out first quarter 2005, but that is almost over and haven't heard a word! The Auto Show is in town, and in all the reviews I haven't seen anything about this new car. Anyone know more about it?

Re: Grand Prix GXP V8

Everything I find says, "2005-2006" GXP. So take it from there. Numbers don't show me much.

Re: Grand Prix GXP V8

darn Pontiac sales ppl, there is a bonny GXP but they are coming out with a grand prix version too. When I went to the local Pontiac dealer to check out gtos and G6s I knew more about them. But ill just say that was the local dealer.

Dark GP,
This one's for you. We don't like posting large pictures cause they take up a lot of room, and they load slow for guys on dail up, BUT

I went to the Chicago Auto Show this year and I seen them there. There pretty sweet looking. The only bad part is that its FWD. Theres is going to be some mechanical problems with that I think. At least that what I heard.
