Re: Drivers Side Mirror

Can't you turn that function off thru the operator options panel?
I know I could on the Escalade, but I don't remember it on the GXP.

There was a dark blue one for sale at a dealer in the Chicago area sometime within the last couple of years.
Awesome color, ...

Re: Looking at buying a GXP

I've got brand new Dunlop SP Sport Signatures on mine this week.
They are really quiet & smooth so far, after about 400miles this week.
So I'd be swapping wheels & tires if I brought another one home.

But with new tires on mine now, ..., I'd better drive it another 40k or so, ...

Re: Sirius/XM Radio in GXP

Yes, the car that I have considered buying does not have the Sirius/XM option.
I don't know what is all involved in the radio package, if a car was to have that added option up front, which I imagine it has to, so it has the antenna.

Just to clarify, the antenna on the rear roof area of my current ...
