We purchased this car in Feb 2005; we have had abolutely no troubles with it. It is fun to drive, reminds me somewhat of the muscle car era I grew up in with a touch of class & luxury. Ours is Black with gray/black leather interior. We get the oil changed every 4-5 months as we don't drive a lot of miles, pleasure only, three vacation trips of 1,500-1,600 miles or so included in the 14,700 now on the car. Actually it is my wife's car; her previous car was a 34,000 mile, T-Top 1996 Camaro; she didn't drive that one much either; about 6 vacation trips in that car; it had the 3000 V-6
Pure Fun

I went from a 2001 Yukon to my 2004 Greystone Metallic GXP. The size was the toughest adjustment, but the power and handling made up for the loss of room. It's nothing but muscle and fun to drive. There's nothing better then merging into fast moving interstate traffic and listening to the growl of the Northstar at it's best! I have had it in for warranty work four times since purchase in six months for silly minor things and one major A/C water leak which the dealer kept in the shop for a week! Probably more of a dealer issue. The brake rotors rust as well and the dealer thinks it's acceptable.

Only owned for about a month but so far very impressed. Expert reviewers missed on this one, traded 300C which was a terrible car, nothing worked after 3 months, GXP has great drive train, more than enough power, very good handling for a front driver. MPG so far is about 17/22 which should only improve with time
Good Vibes

The Bonnie Gxp is a blast to drive. With the sweet sound of it's pipes, I feel like it;s 1965 again. It has good power,could use more torque down low, but it's a dohc engine; and really starts to cook @ about 3500-4000 rpm.I love the styling. Looked at the Chrysler 300; but couldn't handle the cheese grader front end. And please; the Toyota Avalon is just plain ugly! The Bonnie has a busy interior, but I love the red dash at night; XM radio is fantastic. Gas mileage is only ok but it is a big heavy car with a v8. But like the man said "I feel good when I get in, and I feel good when I get out" If your looking for a larger car that handles like a BMW;w/good power;nice ride,big trunk; GXP!
Excellent bargain.

Great car. Gas mileage @ 65mph > 31+, in town, 22.5. Super ride, quiet, comfortable. Sunroof is extra-large. Exception bargain, if you're looking for a superior, comfortable, car that gets great mileage. Picked this one up used, 14,000 miles < $19.5K. List for a new one is over $35K. Thanks for earlier reviews, they helped make decision to buy.
