    Bought my wife...an autobot

    Couldn't pass up a deal on this 07 Solstice GXP M5 with "Jazz" transformer front end. She loves it and my nine year old almost had a heart attack when he saw it (big transformers fan). It's pretty peppy and pulls hard after 4000 under full spool

    Looks really nice. We get 15+ of those at the PVGP every year - they're a really nice group of owners - very courteous and organized.

    Do a tune, trust me. The LNF's really wake up with just a flash. The difference in my car with the tune off and on is unreal. PM me for more info if you want, I have a pretty standard 22psi Trifecta tune on my Cobalt (same engine), or you can go with HPT. Guys typically make around 300 whp with a tune only.

    GMMP sells a turbo upgrade kit that doesn't void the warranty if installed at the dealership. Only one stage as far as I know though

    I buy stuff in spite of the business not because of it! I made more as a salesman in 06-08 working for someone than I do now, but I'm hoping for the bigger picture down the road. Or a stroke. One of the two
