    Thank you so much....my brother keeps saying to me that I don't even know what my car can do and telling me all these different cars I could beat in a race...is he exaggerating or is that true?

    Nope its true. A base gp gxp with the 5.3 ls4 motor has 305 horsepower. I've seen consistent quarter mile times of 14.3-14.2 all day. My gtp has got a basic 3.4 setup and I'm only runnin 14.1. Ur car could hold its own against a lot of cars. Any ricer, pretty much any mustang v6 OR v8 except for the 05 and newer. U get the picture. Plus uve got a v8. I betcha a lot of us s/c v6 guys would love to have a v8 under the hood

    TRUST ME...you will be happy with the GXP. Good gas mileage, great for a family car/ mad max grocery getter. This is the one car i plan on keeping as long as she runs. Later ill step up and get something with more aftermarket support that i can go insane with. You have any plans for ur car at all Tamara? ur brother suggest anything to you haha??
    2006 GXP, stock for now
