Topic: New Coupe GXP arrives at Wester's Garage

[Wester's Garage]

You guys are tooooo funny ! Had to let you fellas know that my wife won't give the car back. Sorry ! Local dealership phoned me about 5 months ago about my new Solstice that was being built, and it arrived last week. Nice 2009 HT in Black...looks VERY good. Been so nuts here, it's sat in the shop for a week. Haven't had time to drive it yet...anyone have access to production numbers on these ? Wonder how many made it to Canada ?

[Filipp]

I am going to assume not many made it to Canada. I believe total built was 1200-1600. Forgot the exact number. Hope its a GXP though =)

[DeepBlueGXP]

1152 Coupes were built to be exact!!!!  I have one also.  Congrats on the new ride.

Lyndon , congrats on getting the new Coupe .   Black is Beautiful and I know you'll trick it out first chance you get.  I'll be coming to canada on August 5t,09. Will be staying in Montreal 6-8 days. I would like to know if you can tune a PT Turbo Cruiser its got a stage 1 PCM and direct port NOS system + other stuff. I'll be driving that up not the ( GXP has no room for wife and cloths) Attending a Si/FI Convention. I may try to find my way to your place .

Um, Montreal and Calgary are 2250 miles apart... That's like Lyndon saying "Hey, i'm gonna be in Seattle, maybe I'll try to stop by Chicago while I'm down there."

Lyndon, I'm thinking of driving up to see you NEXT summer... I have a coupe that matches yours and just got the GMPP tune installed, so I'm sure by then you'll have lots you can do to help me out...

WOW!  That may be one of one in Canada!  I've been searching for someone selling a coupe for months, not one dealership ever listed one for sale.  Although, if they were ordered directly for customers, they would not show up in my searches.  So maybe not one of one, but that car is going to be VERY rare in Canada.

Now slap some Alberta plates on there and it's worth 5 grand more!

Wow, Lyndon Wester, all I can say is   a toast is in order, now like our beloved Joe, (DeepBlueGXP) who has three Solstices in the family counting his son's, now you have two, a 2008 GXP and a newly ordered and received 2009 HT Coupe in Black of which only 1152 were produced by GM.  As others have inferred, you may be the only Coupe owner in all of Canada and surely in Alberta!

We are all happy for you and your wife and what you do for the community of Kappa owners here in the states and in Canada.  Again, thanks!

Naw, there's a couple of em... one over in Duncan, BC for sure... Someone around Vancouver was looking at one and didn't buy it.

I'm sure Toronto got the rest...

Lyndon,
Good luck on the new coupe, hope the wife doesn't try and take it as well.  Hope you get some time soon to take your new baby out for a ride. Enjoy!

Congratulations on your new hardtop Lyndon! Rare in Canada indeed.

According to the GM Canada site there are 2 in Toronto.

[DragonSolGXP]

Here's one in Toronto. It's kind of pricey? Or am I wrong? Not sure what they go for from a dealer.
