GXP for '05?

Post by badmojo »

Check out this chart. I know it has a disclaimer, but has anyone heard anything about the GXP package being available in '05?http://www.gminsidenews.com/factsheet.htm

Alot of the information in that chart is pretty old and outdated already. Some actions that are in the 'future' in the chart have already been done or have been axed.We haven't heard anything new pertaining to the Vibe GXP other than its concept form. I'd love to see the GXP become publically available soon! This older thread here, states just that.. still undecided. Appears they want to make sure the vehicles they release as "GXP" are worthy of such name.

And also, they did not make the S/C for the ecotec either for our cars at least they did not. I'm pretty sure they're using the base with a S/C.Inder

the problem as I see it is that they would have to do a major overhaul with the vehicle.The ecotech is a bigger engine then the vvti and they would need a new trans to match up to the car the one in the vibe now would never hold up to the 205 HP that the ecotech with the supercharger will put out.
