Before:
After:
I sold my 04 Comp-G and picked up an 08 GXP a few weeks ago and I must say I will never look back. Now before you drill me saying things like "No mods for LS4" or "Too expensive to mod LS4" or "Comp-G can be faster than GXP for a little bit of money", all I have to say is "To each their own"
I had my eye on a GXP for a long time. I got my Comp-G in 08 as an off lease and I could not afford the GXP at the time. My Comp-G had high miles so I was able to score a good deal on it but I always missed out on alot of things that I really wanted for my Grand Prix. I have always been a Pontiac guy and I think my two favorite cars Pontiac made were the G8 and 04+ Grand Prix. Having been with my GXP for a little over two weeks I am able to give my pros and cons between my two cars.
Pros: Power, V8 Sound, Body Style, Dual Zone Climate, Swade, Chrome accents, Monsoon, LED Tails the previous owner installed, the looks I get driving down the road, did I mention the sound?
Cons: Fuel mileage, no whine, not as cheap to mod, little more expensive to insure, small car payment.
Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase. In the end that is really all that matters. I am not looking for a race car. I know that for a few grand I could really wake up my Comp-G but I would be unhappy with the cons too much to enjoy. My Comp-G was just real basic. That is just me. I have the utmost respect for all Grand Prix owners out there and hope some respect goes my way as well.
Cheers.
