No motor or inside shots?
Looks good.

I'll get some underhood and interior pics tonight. I realize that everyone won't love the wheels, but I've just always liked dark wheels on a white car. My Lightning had powder coated black stockers.

Manual, I drove a GT with the auto w/ sport mode and wasn't really a fan, I'd rather have a third pedal and a true manual trans.

thats really the only reason i would get a GXP (for the 6 speed) I was pretty disappointed when they didnt have the manual in the GT's. I probably would have picked up a GT right a way. Good looking car, love the white!

Very nice bro, I like a person who keeps their whip simple and pays attention to the picky details. The little finishing touches go along way

ive really been thinking of dumping the lightning for one

I have missed my Lighting since I got rid of it, the Speed6 was ok, but lacked the power and a lot of the straight line fun the Lightning provided. The GXP gives me the straight line performance along with good handling and slightly better MPG's than the L. I do plan on getting another Lightning, probably wait a few years and pick up one for a decent price.

Looks great. I would get some VHT and tint those red markers at the bottom of the rear bumper though. They stick out too much right now.

Nice car dude, I've seen you over on g8board.com. I guess I should post a thread here about my conversion from a Mustang to a G8. ;-)

Wheels were powdercoated, I wasn't a huge fan of the shiny polished look.
