Thumbs up pic of my roomates new solstice gxp (turbo) and my 350z

My roomate just bought a 07 solstice gxp a couple of days ago i must say that it is pretty quick. Hopefully i will be able to get a run with him in my z as soon as he gets his car broken in correctly. I did a little bit of research on the car through car and driver and also the pontiac solstice forums the road and track said that the car runs 14.2 in the 1/4 mile but some of the solstice drivers have gottem that car into the high 13's just like the z have stock. Man i imagine with a tune and a boost controller that car would have a edge on the z for sure if not beat it by car lengths but the top end isnt as strong as the z's i believe. ppl on here were telling me how this car wasnt even compared with a z eventhough it runs very close times to a z and it handles just as good. I had this on another thread but people were telling me how i love ponitacs and that im a z poser and that i don't even have a z it was just crazy so basically im beginning to think the alot of zer's on here arent enthusiast but just *******s so here are pics of my z and my roomates new pontiac solstice gxp along with my house in the back ground which ive had since i was 21. Im pretty sure you wont be seeing to many of these cars around since they are making less cars then the honda s200 by a good amount.

I can't help but feel that you're hinting towards something...

And I can think of MANY places much more boring to live

yeah ill have some i post some pics of the car with the top down in a little bit. Its a pretty sweet ride but i wouldnt trade the z for it i just love the z i like the way it builds instant torque and hp that you dont get from that car the way it drives and gains speed is just so different from the z. I must say this much thought that car is alot lighter than the hardtop z and way lighter than the cov. z . I think the aftermarket for this car will pretty good but im not sure since its a limited production car but if it does this car will be pretty damn fast. A guy over at the solstice forum is already running 350whp with a stock turbo and a tune and a little other things done.

It might be as fast as a Z, but (IMO) still an ugly car with a sh!tty designed top.

whats up phil you would burn the doors off his car plus he isnt that good of a driver yet. Im still trying to teach him how to drive at least a little better than the average person but he has a far way to go plus you have like triple his power lol maybe if he decided to up the boost and get a tune and some other stuff then it would be a good run maybe ha.
