It is in the US also, that's why you see the price for the convence package for the GXP is $525.00 vs on the Base Solstice it's $690.00. With the GXP your only paying for leather seat's.

If I understand things correctly, the turbo boost readout is a choice on the DIC. So if your watching MPG, no boost gauge. It may not matter since in this engine boost just is...

Does anyone know what the Club Sport Package is for 2007? It appears to be available for both the standard and GXP

You wouldn't put a club sport on the GXP, that would be a down grade for the GXP.

My dealer said up graded suspension which the GXP already has, I think maybe a couple other thing's but not quite sure. I was just repeating what my dealer told me.

Just remember, when boost goes up, mpg goes down. You dont need to switch back and forth at all, just keep it on the boost gauge

What would be cool is if the DIC automatically switched to the boost readout when the turbo really kicks in and then returned to whatever setting it was on after a few seconds or as boost tapers off.

I wish it had a boost gauge separate stock like the Cobalt SS/SC.

For that matter I wish the GXP had a complete compliment of gauges. I expect to see this in future models.

brentil, I wish it had a full complement of guages, including boost. Inexcusable to waste all that dash space on 3 guages. I realize the designer wanted to go with a "motorcycle" theme, but oil pressure, water temp, charging all are necessary guages in my opinion, and boost should be there too. I'm sure someone will come out with aftermarket guages at some point, but Pontiac was just plain stupid not to include a full complement of guages in this sports car. I mean, if it's good enough for my Chevy Silverado...
