I'll tell you what, I never gave much thought to the GXP when it was out. Really didn't want another FWD car with decent power. The wife found this one at a dealer and we went to look at it. She drove it and I was in the passenger seat, it really drove pretty well. All in all, I'm glad we ended up getting it. It's a nice car that stays under the radar and still have fun in it.

Still have to do some mods so I can say its the fastest 4 door we've owned. Had a '92 Dodge Spirit R/T that was definitely quicker, but it wasn't as fast stock vs stock. When I had it to the track in '93, it went 14.4@100 bone stock. The GXP is quicker than that.

Anyway, the GXP is a nice car and glad we own it

You're right, Brian. I've had very little contact with LT1 drivers, aside from the junkers I see on the road that are stupid enough pick a race with the Camaro. But my experience with the recent LT1 trolls in this section makes me think that they fit in the same "********" category populated by most C6 owners

It's a lot like the Mustang thing: LT1s and Mustangs are like hemorrhoids: Every ******* has one. (No offense to Levi or anyone else here that owns an LT1 and doesn't act like an ***.)

Like I said, no offense meant to those who are non-trolls.
