Just a few i thought of. Any ideas

GXP in my view stands for slow vers my modded 2007 SC GP GT

Dude...cmon. Quit bashing. If you don't have any decent constructive responses, then race me and see how it goes and how much I call your car slow everytime you post.

And you aren't bashing? That modded SeriesIII S/C will walk your car if it is stock. I've driven a few GXP's. There is nothing special about them IMO. And get off your EBay kick, no one buys hardly anything off of there that knows anything about modding. Lemme guess...under 25? First nice car...think your hot sh*t? You've got some learning and growing up to do chief.

G-series X-tra Performance.

Here's another one. What's GTP stand for =D

Grand Touring Prototype. GM stole the name from the racing series. Prototypes: The History of the IMSA GTP Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Exactly right. Gran Turismo Prototipo is how i learned it. same thing.

Not bad for a noob huh? LMAO.

Okay but really, this isn't a place to be arguing over the internet. People have their own opinions so just leave it alone.

I wanted to be a Marine








































but I passed the test.

Nick is right - a stock GTP walk a stock GXP w/5.3 liter. They're just too big and that motor isn't terribly strong. As for the "not fortunate enough to be able to afford one" comment - depends on what you value, doesn't it?

Hm I'd have to agree on that last part.

I would have to strongly disagree with that statement. Lets look at some specs shall we.....

97-03 GTP
Horsepower: 240 hp
Torque: 280 ft-lbs
Max Horsepower: 5200 rpm
Max Torque: 3600 rpm
Curb Weight: 3559 lbs

04-05 GTP/06-07 GT
Horsepower: 260 hp
Torque: 280 ft-lbs
Max Horsepower: 5600 rpm
Max Torque: 3600 rpm
Curb Weight: 3583 lbs

05-08 GXP
Horsepower: 303 hp
Torque: 323 ft-lbs
Max Horsepower: 5600 rpm
Max Torque: 4400 rpm
Curb Weight: 3600 lbs

GXP is only 40 pounds heavier, and has 40+ hp and 40+ ft-lbs tq over the GTP/GT, giving it a better hp/tq to weight ratio. A decently modded supercharged 3.8 will walk a 5.3; but stock vs stock, 5.3 will win all day long.
