I was hoping that the 5k GXP bump included a lot of other features that the base model Solsitice doenst have (and the sky does), opening up the door for "well, the sky already has this, this and that.. so its should only be a 3k bump on the sky".
No such luck. According to the GXP feature list on the site, it looks like that 5k is almost all turbo.
But.... one last ray of hope. Because Saturn is a non-negotiated price, does that mean its Turbo bump price could be lower? Or they just add more for the money? (classic Saturn argument)
No,the GXP has alot of standard items that you have to pay for in the Base Solstice.
Standard on the GXP but not the Base Solstice are as follow's:
Convenience package standard on GXP / Base 465.00
4 wheel antilock breaks standard on GXP / Base 400.00
Limited slip Standard on GXP / Base 195.00
Sport tuned suspension standard/not available on base
Part of the premium package standard on GXP 525.00 ( Just pay for the leather seat's if you get them) / 690.00 on the base which is 165.00 more
Preferred package standard on the GXP / base 625.00
Dual exhaust standard/Not available on the Base
Polished wheel's standard on GXP / 545.00 on the base
Carpeted floor mats Standard /60.00 on the base Solstice
Performance tire's standard on the GXP / not available on the base
So 2455.00 of the $5,000.00 are standard in the GXP that you would pay for on the Base Solstice. Turbo only would be 2545.00
