Nice lol. I looked on his site and he doesnt have the front clip for the car on it. I wonder where I'd manage to find those lol. I'm likely getting one around then too, and I wanted to convert the body over to the Commodore parts.

I will be doing a commodore conversion IF I get a GT, if I get a GXP out of the states I prob wont...too rare...

You can source parts on ebay.com.au but then good luck getting them shipped over...

In speaking to a couple of GXP owners north of the border, there are about a dozen here now...

I saw a silver one on kijiji in the fall with Camaro 20's and an M6, the guy wanted big dollars.

There is a guy in Niagara with an A6 black GXP and I spotted a white GXP in my area sporting Alberta plates, so there's 3 right there...LOL

I think the production of the M6 cars didnt even break into the thousands lol. It was something like 800 made I think. I know I wont have the money for one any time soon. I found a V8 GT for under 20, but it had over 100k on it.

I paid $20K for my G8 with 15K miles 3 years ago. I'd say I got the deal of a lifetime since it's still worth more than I paid for it.
