Traded my 2008 Sly NA Solstice in today for a 2009 "Wicked GXP. The color is awesome as is the turbo. Bought the 2008 Sly NA on Sept. 04, 2007. Bought the "wicked" GXP on Sept. 04, 2008. Kinda eerie huh ......Didn't know about the employee pricing discount until we picked it up this morning. Here's a coupla pix of our new ride

Tradition = Just because you've always done it that way doesn't mean it's not incredibly stupid.
Looks GREAT! My Wicked GXP is scheduled to be built next week. Your pictures are the first GXP I've seen and actually the first clean Wicked I've seen. I've seen two Solstice NAs and two SKY redlines in Wicked at dealerships but they were all kind of dirty sitting outside. Trading my 07 NA for Wicked GXP and can't wait! Good luck with yours!!

Congratulations, Ron & Dee, the new wicked color is awesome! Where in SE PA do you live?
Hi Bob,
Thanks for the congrats. Yeah, we think it's awesome too. To answer your question, we live in Annville, home of Lebanon Valley College. Annville is located 10 east of Hershey, Chocolatetown USA. By the way, you did a great emcee job in Lexington.
Ron

That is one sharp color on the Sol. The color looks like a perfect match with one of our maroon red windscreen color offerings .
