Default Solstice GXP?

Anyone have any experience with these? Someone wants to trade for my chevelle.

Has 45k miles, auto, black and is a convertible.. It's turbo so can they be quick cars? I figure it be something cool to dick around in for a month. What are they worth?

I have one. They're kick ***. You can gain a quick 40-50rwhp with a tune. Great cars.

07 I think with 45k, I am going to look at it tonight. If I get this new job though I am just gonna keep the chevelle. What would trade in be? I just think it would be easier to sell.

How does it run tuned? As quick as a bolt on Fbody?

I'm driving it right now and wow, it ain't no bitch. Had me glued to the seat and I love the handling. But being 6'5 was putting a hurting on my body after only minutes of being in the car.

I guess the deal breaker is seeing how much it's actually worth.

Those hooker heels give me a few inches.

And I found out the car is boosted to 20psi
