GXP Colors for 07' ?

	bitznpcs Member Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: near Edmonton, Alberta, Canada	Does anyone know what colors the GXP may be offered in 07' ? I've seen yellow on this site and understand that Serene Blue isn't an option (pitty). How about Envious ?

	Sol Cruisin Member Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: City of Fun, State of Bliss	Spoiler is an OPTION. But NOT Sky version from GM. Maybe buy Sol w/o spoiler & get Sky spoiler from parts and add it. Colors are the same as 2006 EXCEPT added Mean __________________ Ernie Guzman Pontiac in Houston are liars and profiteers!! Power Train Mods Are Done!!!

	Troy S Member Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: Hudson, FL	Wonder what the 2 black spots are at the top of the rear deck lid in the first series of yellow pics. Possibly pop them out and drop hard top in place. Could also be so you know where to close the lid at. __________________ Mysterious Sand and Steel Chrome wheels GM CAI Alpine with Monsoon Sound Illuminated Windrestrictor Last edited by Troy S : 07-06-2006 at 06:34 PM.

All of the cars I've bought new have been a little more than base; a 1988 Dodge Daytona turbo, 1991 Z24, 1998 Grand Prix GTX Pace Car and 2000 Grand Prix GTP Pace Car and eventually a GXP. I had an '88 Daytona... cool little cars.

Chrome around fog lights looks sharp but ventilation for Turbo would decrease!

	GXPinKC Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Kansas City	Quote: Originally Posted by bradsol Just adding my 2cents worth... I'd Love to see a Chrome option for the front! It certainly looks great, but the square inches of space allowed to ventilate the turbo would be greatly decreased. Therefore, I would assume that performance would be compromised. I'm not an engineer but I would assume that the amount of ventilation necessary for the turbo, is what you see. Loads of engineering went into this vehicle and this was the final design. I wouldn't fool with it, or you might void your warranty. I personally prefer the original design. A little to much chrome for me. Just a thought.

	DCLocal Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Washington, DC	The vents around the turn signal/fog lamps are for the front brakes, not the turbo, so I don’t think restricted airflow is an issue. While I love looking at photochopped images to see “what could be” the chrome surrounds don’t do it for me. __________________ "Mac Daddy" DELIVERED! Sly/Ebony with the works... My GXP Photo Gallery

	Solsticer Member Join Date: Aug 2006	i personally prefer the look of the original solstice.. the spoiler took out the simple look and the beautiful curves.. also i like the simple facial on the original model.. the air intake? they added on in the gxp model took away the softiness of the front... but overall.. just love it.. ready to order mine.. the horsepw extra is the reason i go for the gxp my two cents

Look closely.....you'll notice that the vents are larger due to designers not engineers. The actual opening is about the size of a baseball or so...actually round. __________________ _ Team Solstice 2008 HOT SHOT Aggressive 2007 GXP Auto-minus OnStar, spoiler, and smokers pkg.
