My new REAL GXP!

Post by BonnevilleBill »

Hey Everybody. I just wanted to show you all my 2004 Liquid Silver GXP that I bought this past Friday. I had a 2005 SE that had 120k on her and she was a wonderful car. I have always wanted a "real" GXP from the beginning as you can tell with all the GXP parts I put on it. (Thanks to MORADS). This car has just 62k on it and she runs great. I got a 3 year warranty or 36k bumper to bumper and I sometimes I just want to sit in the garage to look at it. Is that strange? She only has a small scratch about one inch that was touched up. She's also a one owner non smoker elderly man owned car. I will stop yapping now so here she is, enjoy.

Very nice! Did you keep the SE or sell / trade it?

Take a drive up to Michigan this weekend for the meet and show it off :)

I approve!
Bravo!

I can't tell, but do you still have the SE?
The condition and miles on your GXP mirror mine, you'll love it.

Thanks guys. Crash, I traded it in. I wanted to sell her but was afraid the GXP would be gone by the time mine sold. Leon, Thanks so much. I have always totally admired yours from the day you got it.

No problem dude, thanks!
Were you able to harvest the GXP parts back off your SE before you let her go?

I managed to get the Carbon's, Sill plates, and gauge cluster. I had no other rims and not enough time to take off the spoiler so they went with the car.

Congrats. Your car looks great. I can't wait to see some pictures with window tint! PM me if you want to know how to ditch the rear glass cell antenna and put in a 2005 shark fin in place of the little box on the roof that will work the cell, Sirius XM (if equipped), and GPS for OnStar

Nice looking and low mileage GXP!! Bonnevilles in this condition are getting fewer by the day! Other than the few Andrew gets his hands on! Ha
