I noticed on the Pontiac site today, XM is going to be offered in 2004! WOOHOO!!!! Seems like they ARE listening to our feedback (or it's a wicked cool coincidence)...it's just a shame the GTO is prolly gonna be my next purchase....

Dude, that puppy is SCHWEET! 5.7 L alum-block, w/ 340-hp @ 5200, and 360 lb ft @ 4000. Hydra-matic 4L60E 4-speed auto or 6-speed close ratio manual tranny. 0-60 in under 6, top speed of 160 (not that I'd ever get the chance to go that), 18" alloys, 10 speaker sound system...this car is BEAUTIFUL!!! I'm gonna go to the NY Auto Show just to see it (and the other concepts...maybe the Vibe GXP even!)...it's a beautiful car...Just afraid to see the sticker price...

Yeah, I can understand that...not sure if you ever saw the G6 concept, that's a beautiful car...the solstice too...though it's unclear if the latter 2 will ever make it to production...But it's the power and luxury of the car that excites me...never had a car with so much power, much less a legendary history, behind it...Saw on 60 minutes tonight there is a Caddy concept that has 1000 hp. Nope, no typo. That's one thousand horsepower. Scary shtuff!

I got my Pontiac mag in the mail Fri. and they have a nice article on the GXP and the GTO. I think I'll wait for that body kit. And, I have to say that I do not like what they did with the new GTO. It doesn't have any of the original lines to it like what Ford did with the new Thunderbird. Yeah, the engine sounds impressive, but it looks like any other Pontiac out there and nothing like the original GTO.

Since I wasn't around for the original GTO in any of it's various looks, the new one looks schweet to me!!!But the concept G6 has much nicer lines and a smoother flow to it...

http://pioneerelectronics.com/Pioneer/C ... x-p9-kinda high end head unit but pioneer sells xm ready head units with a tuner for like 399.00.If you haven't experienced XM and you spend alot of time in your car then you got to have it.I take alot of trips and its awesome.
