Very nice cars, indeed. I just can't see giving up an LS4 car for one but that's just me.

i didnt give up my GXP for a comp g...i sold the gxp because our family is expanding and we needed a bigger family car...we couldnt do 2 big car payments and the gxp wasnt my DD so it had to be sold to get the equinox.

And I got rid of mine so that my wife could get a new car and I took her old one. She drives a ton of miles for work so I wanted her to have something with less miles.
I am also posturing for a new Camaro next year so I had to get rid of my fun car and get her a new one. The next one is mine.

That makes sense, sorry for my earlier comment as I realize it came across somewhat snide...
That being said, that looks like a real nice Comp G. Can't wait to see some more mods

I would trade my GXP for a Comp G. Better MPGs and Reliability. I would prefer to trade it for a Bonnie SSEI though.

These cars make great DDs, and the parts are even cheaper than GXP parts. Good pick up!

It's nice knowing if I ever want to mod this car there is aftermarket support
