Just had my GTP delivered this morning! Haven't had the chance to really open her up yet since I'm waiting for the break-in period. It's a bit of a cloudy day, so I'll take some better pics as soon as I have a chance. I love it already!

Very nice. Looks like I'll be the first to have the 6-speed :D

Hadden- congrats on the 6spd. I had the chance to go with a black on black 6spd, but I do way too much rush-hour traffic for a manual. Don't want to end up with an over-developed left calf. Haha. :D I see you're getting a coupe? One thing I don't like about mine is that it doesn't come with the 3-spoke steering wheel...I guess it only comes on the coupe. That thing is SHARP!
SBM- sorry to leave you hanging on the rear shot. Here you go. These photos aren't all that exciting, but I'll def post some better ones once the weather clears.

Thanks for the info- I wasn't aware of that. It looks so much classier than the 4 spoke- I'd love to retrofit one but I can't imagine how much $$ that would be??

Yes, I wasn't sure I wanted to tell you that :(
Would involved new steering wheel and airbag so pretty pricey I think.

Exactly- I would guess the airbag alone would could be $600-900, not including the wheel itself. Rather put the money into tinting, drop, or other mods. Only thing I can think of is if the dealer might give a credit for the wheel I've got since it's brand new. Doubt it though...probably has a snowball's chance!

CincyG6~ The Granite Metallic is quite the stunning color. The interior patterns are also very appealing. :agree2: Since I elected to get all black on black leather, I of course don't have as interesting an interior. Having not looked at the GTP models, yours is my first real close look. I am pleased to see that someone else got the panoramic sunroof - congrats! The mileage for city/hwy appeared to be very similar to the '05 GTs... have you found that your driving is beyond what average was indicated on the sticker (yet)? Just curious. I will have to look into this 3-spoke steering wheel that y'all are talking about - haven't see that yet. Again..., sharp lookin' ride! :D

great car--how come you got the 4 spoke wheel?

^ The 4 spoke wheel came on very early build GTP's.

My sedan has the 3. Hate the 4 spoke. I bought mine in nov.
