I'm in my second Solstice
« on: May 07, 2009, 05:48:35 PM »
I got my first one in Oct 05. Only options it had was AC (a must have in AZ) and the computer info center.
Eventually I installed the Fujita intake, Magnaflow catback and a reflashed ECM. This past winter I got a custom trailer from Adventure Sports Products. I loved that car but I had close to 70K on it and the dealer was making screaming deals on the 08s. So 2 weeks ago I traded it in on a GXP with all the bells and whistles. Immediately I installed the GM intake and exhaust and this past weekend the GM turbo upgrade. Nice!

I too went with an 06' N/A with just a few whistles, and no bells. Loved it. However, a year later, I went in to the the dealer on my birthday, just "test drive" the GXP. I test drove that puppy all the way home..... :brnout:
