Rolling in Second Sol (2009 Wicked Solstice GXP Coupe)
« on: May 07, 2009, 12:06:08 AM »
Moved up today from a 2006 NA Solstice to a 2009 Solstice GXP Coupe.

Only have a few miles on the new baby, but I can already tell a big difference.  Time will tell how great that divide really becomes.  I loved my '06 and it was hard to part with her.  I am sure that will pass with time.  I just hope the new owner wants to be part of the Solstice community.

Looking forward to learning about the GXP model.  Now I will have to apy attention to some of those threads that I have skimmed or skipped in the past.

See you all on the road.

GO_DRVN and the Mrs, I am so happy for you guys.  I know how you loved the 2006 NA Solstice and it was a beaut!  We have had so much fun at the local meets and National Meets.  I cannot wait to see your new Coupe in person.  I have not seen one yet, close up and it would be fun to see yours first in person before any other.  That would be special.  I look forward to getting together to see you guys again and renew are friendship.  It would be great to get all the guys and gals together for another mini-meet.  I remember the last one, the drive in the country where you routed it through my old college town in Marshall.  That was special.  Well, I know you are :woohoo: in the street's and  :drag:   your new :brnout: pride and joy.  I can't wait to see it.

I just absolutely love the new color. Tried to talk my wife into trading ours for a new 09 Sky RL in the same color, just no go. Sure is a beautiful car. Congratulations.  :thumbs:

Before I left for work this morning, I snagged that exact picture from your thread on the BB and e-mailed it to myself at work.  I don't have access to the BB at work, but I dig the car so much that I wanted to use your pic as my wallpaper at work.

I hope you don't mind :) :lol:

Looking good, after your break in period you gotta go pickup the GMPP LNF / Stage 2 Upgrade. If you thought you liked your GXP now wait till after the GM tune.

In the garage, once off their's no place to store it in the car. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Very nice :drool: was looking at one myself, but leaving the top at home was the deal breaker.
