    Yea well Billstein struts..you could also add those on a GT but they're pretty pricey and will lift the car a bit. I didn't really want a luxury ride so I was fine with my comp g struts.
    Squirrels are my engine. I need a Ford Regal

    I would look at the deals for the GXP. I would take a steal on a GXP over an average price on a GT any day of the week.

    Meh only thing cool about the gxp is the v8 sound but I'll pass and stick with a boosted six.
    The v8 is pointless when the platform limits it so much.

    First off hope you did not get hurst much in that accident, and secondly i like the GXP and tested one before and really i like it only because of that roar of the V8.

    I would get the GT/GTP than the GXP, plus isnt that you can put on some mods on the GT to make it as fast as the GXP and still keep not put much pressure on that trans? Im pretty sure you can do that with the GT. Ive been lookng for some around here and cant find much of any.

    I know most LSx motors are compatible... so why couldnt you slap in LS1 parts and get racekar status.

    Your right, you can, but the FWD platform does not make it worth going beyond 350hp. You would still get your ass handed to you because it will just sit there spinning lol

    That is where suspension mods come into play for going in a straight line.

    Suspension mods can only do so much. You are still going to unload the front end to an extent.
