Geez, I took ONE day off from the Forum yesterday, and MSG_McKee sneaks in with his GXP.
A big congratulations, Steve! We have been there next to you since last year when you were still playing in the sand-box. Wow, how time flies!
Couldn't have happened to a nicer more deserving guy, so obviously this is a real Happy Thanksgiving for you. Enjoy tomorrow with your family and your new toy. I don't know what you can do for Christmas to top this, maybe some mods, eh?

Thanks for the kind words and future mods are already in my head. My wife agreed the rear fascia needs to be painted like LVs and maybe some performance parts too (CAI, ECM, etc). The easy stuff is going on this weekend ie Lil' Chromies and stubby antenna. I also have Robert making me a cool WR that I think everyone will like.

I drove from 1pm to 6pm ... showing her off, getting my tag (all within the city) and I thought I drove about 100 (my goal) and I looked down and I only had 50 . (9 at pick up) I am going to drive in the country today and try to add some miles ... if I can sneak out of the Thanksgiving crowd.

It'll be hard to do that MSG. 'cause the "crowd" will be around the car.

Good point ... if you are a paranoid person THEN DO NOT BUY THIS CAR!
I left my 15 YO in the car while I picked up my check from the bank and when I came out she said everyone was checking out the car and she did not want to be left alone again in it .
I took my dad to McDonalds and I ran into of all people Barry.Morton (from the forum and local Sol owner) We did not have much time to talk but he said: Is that the new GXP ... I say yes ... he said I have one too (2006) and my name is ... I said you are on the SF right ... SMALL WORLD!
PS: Next time I head through Fort Benning I will look you up.

Congratulations, Steve! Enjoy your new ride. It's a beauty. What a great way to start off the holiday season. Love, Susan and Chris
So glad you waited and got the car you wanted.
MSG - Take that hill, take that dale, take that twistie. Take all the time you need, you waited a long time. Enjoy that ride.
It is party time @ Fort Stewart.
May all of your days be topless!!

2007 Mysterious GXP - Fully Loaded - 5 Speed Manual - Ebony leather with red stitching - Air - 6 CD - Monsoon - XM - Sport Metallic Pedals - Premium Headliner - Chrome Wheels - Even Onstar - No Smokers or Spoiler. Arrived in Duluth, GA 9/15/2006 at the dealer. Picked her up on 9/19/2006, in the driveway 9/20/2006.
Glad to see pics of a a GXP with the spoiler other than the ones at the auto show. I thought I was doing the right thing and deleted it on my order just to get it moving when the spoiler was on 100% constraint--got too impatient. Either way, my GXP is now built and shipped. Have ordered the spoiler from a dealer and will have it painted, along with the RK Sport side skirts and replacement side cowls with large functioning openings.
Congrats and have fun.
