Default Gxp?

I was driving around the other day, and this purple pontiac gxp rolled up next to me and was reving his car. What the hell are these? I have never seen one before.. Looked like a cool car, its something different then the same cars you see everyday.

I would guess it is Stealth Blue only 2008 color


Stryker Blue 2009 color


G8 has a L76 6.0L 365hp
GXP has a LS3 6.2L 415hp
GXP you could get a a/6 or m/6
GXP has upgraded brakes,springs,shocks,20"wheels
but the biggest difference is GEARS!
G8 has 2.92
GXP has 3.45 auto 3.73 manual
The front facia is different also
G8 front

GXP front

The rear diffuser is also different

The GXP doesn't come in Stealth Blue, it must have been a GT with GXP wheels if it looked purple. Or maybe the guy had it painted a different color.
