What sort of alternative universe have we entered into?

[Camino LS6 880]

Automatic?

Boo!

That won't help at B-J time!

[GMTruckGuy74 228]

Congratulations on buying such a wonderful car. Glad to see you saw the 'light'!!

I still don't know what this is - * MODEL CONVERSION PONTIAC GRAND PRIX '367P'

This is a strange thing to see listed, and if it puzzles you then I wonder how we'll ever find out what it means??

That won't help at B-J time!

B-J time??? Sounds like someone is having more fun than others!

[A Horse With No Name 2,142]

GT GXP!

Sounds like an awesome car...

Although I'd almost rather have a Solstice Targa.

...and I know I'd want three pedals instead of two.

But...congradulations.

WHAT? PCS--a G8? Weren't you the #1 critic of this car (and Holden) and defender of the W-body GP ?????

Shocking...

Maybe his purchase has something to do with that B-J thing.

[Blake Noble 151]

<--- Dumbfounded.

[A Horse With No Name 2,142]

...you and me both, bro.

Exactly, you cannot go wrong with a G8 and a B-J! :AH-HA_wink:

[A Horse With No Name 2,142]

...it sure beats taking it somewhere else and buying a Toyota...

Chris

[gm4life 5]

So PCS got a Solstice GXP Targa and a G8 GXP! You are one lucky man three GXP's! I thought you hated Holden and the G8? I am totally shocked and suprised, can we have photographs so I can drool over it? Please.

[gm4life 5]

...you and me both, bro.

Chris

As am I... But proud of PCS for seeing the light. He will have TWO uber rare GXP's and one rare GP GXP. So PCS I wanna here about the Solstice Targa, what color and features etc?

[Justin Bimmer 138]

OMGWTFBBQ!?

[GMTruckGuy74 228]

Not only did you get the G8 GXP, but you also got a Solstice Targa GXP too??? Where was this posted? Or is that the point - it wasn't posted (at least pictures)?

BTW PCS - :useless:

[Z-06 493]

Congrats Mr. I guess you loved the kidney grills with arrows more than the kidney grills with rondels.

Great vehicle.

Boo!

Who knows what standards or taste will be like in 20 or 30 years? I'll take my chances, however this car is Mrs. PCS's not mine, so the automatic was her doing ...

I recently came into a bit of money with my father's estate being settled, and some other monies I got from my retirement at GME and a signing bonus @ BMW, not to mention the house in St. Croix that my father left me ... So life is good, at least from my standpoint ...

The Solstice was a gift to my daughter, who got accepted to the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame, a year early and with a scholarship. Besides, she is half Irish after all ...

Seen the light no, seen the dollar signs as a future investment, yes .... I may be crazy, but I'm not dumb ...

So now there are 3 GXP's sitting in my garage in Delaware, don't challenge the gate ...

I spent a good portion of this week and last crossing the Franco/Italian border, pics of the cars will come eventually when I return to the USA ...

I've decided to have the Pontiac Custom-S completely restored in Texas next month, work will begin on that in about 30 days.

The Nox will sit in my driveway, as I like to have a CUV on hand just in case the villagers should storm the gate and attack my castle, but I'm thinking the new Cadillac SRX should take its place ... :AH-HA_wink:

That's about all I have to say on my new car purchases for now ...

[A Horse With No Name 2,142]

Congrats on your daughter and Notre Dame...the school is a good school...and it is almost 70% male...I'm sure your daughter will enjoy "both" of these facts.

Chris

[Blake Noble 151]

Buy a Trans Am and then I will consider your driveway complete.

Congrats on a highly enviable driveway PCS.

PCS laughed at us for defending Pontiac and hoping for a positive outcome to the turmoil. Made us think he was doing everything in his capacity at GM to undermine Pontiac. Railed against the G8 from day one. Tick-tock and all that bull&#036;h&#33; throughout his membership here. Then, when it is time to pick the carcass clean, what does he do? He purchases the very car so many of us aspired to, purely as "an investment", nothing more, then makes sure we know it is his "wife's" car, purchased with his money, not hers. This is his ultimate achievement. My hat is off to you, PCS.

[daves87rs 679]

Congrats PCS!

Things sound like they are much better now......

Ocn, he knew what was going to happen (I did too, sadly), but what was he going to say? I don't think he wanted to mess up his future at GM...as he has a family to take care of.

Regardless, he bought the last, best pontiacs that they make....I would assume you noticed he has owned a few pontiacs?

Come on man.......

[gm4life 5]

So PCS what are the details on the Solstice? I am dying to know. Congrats on all your new toys, I wish I could take the G8 GXP tho.
