Hi. I am also new here. I just bought a black grand prix gxp 3 weeks ago, and so far it has been awesome. I have nothing bad to say about it so far. I love the great looks. I love the way it looks, sounds, and rides. It is all around a great car. My old car was a red '97 grand prix gt, and was amazingly slow compared to the new V8. It gave me a rush when I topped my new one out.
