Bah, they made that body style for two years and the other one for way longer, why not just buy an 05-08?? Irks me. That said, It IS a gorgeous car, and the tails are well done, I would be interested to know how they did that. It appears that the amber lens is gone too, they're all red with a little tint to them.

For some odd reason it kind of reminds me of an '09-'10 GT .

I think the GXP taillights were not modifications of the 'stock' lights, but early prototypes, because of 1) the round reflectors, much smaller than stock, and 2) the clear covers. Probably just too expensive to mass-produce.Also notice that the GXP-2.jpg photo with the Michigan license plate has 'stock' taillights with the ridges, while all the other photos show the 'smooth' tails.When I first saw the GXP in person at the 2004 GenVibe Michigan Supermeet, it already had the '2005' front end (introduced in about May 2004). (The blue one is the Vibe Autocross).
