stock 5at 3G vs 3.8 liter 2003 stock at grand prix

hey guys... quick question....

would a stock AT 3.8 liter engine 2003 grandprix (driven by a valley girl LMAO) beat a stock 5at 3g TL? I did a spec report online and it looks like a 3.8L can get anywhere from 200-240 HP....

does the 5AT TL stand a chance? we kinda "raced" last night... lol if you could call it that - from 0 to 45 LOL and i beat her, and shes saying she beat me haha....

idk, shes buggin my gf about it because her x bf used to race his ricer down on HWY and she thinks shes a FnF chick.... so she wants me to race her, but im not worried about doing that right now - cant afford the tickets....

just to satisfy my mind LMAO

I have beaten the GTP on a few occassions. The GT is a JOKE. Just make sure the GTP is not modified. They get fast VERY EASILY.

I will come by and smoke her for you
My dad has a GT and it was easy to beat when he was stock. A GTP can be beaten stock, have yet to lose to one, but modified they can be darn quick

I believe the 04 or 05 and up GTP's are pushing 260HP and 280tq and they are fast, probably a tick faster than a stock tl-s(2G). Like others have said if they're modded they are very fast, well modded and they are mega sleepers that'll pull on a C5.

They weigh more than the previous gen GTP. They run the same times. Magazines see low 15's, real world sees healthy 14's.

High 14's about right which is right in line with a stock tl-s. HPB, chip&tune, I/H/E and they can be made very fast. If I found an awesome deal I'd buy one, mod it and track it and drive it every once in a while. I kind of like the 02-03 body style, flame on!!!!!!!

The supercharged ones make good torque. Unfortunately they're in a FWD platform so you can't put the power down off the start. Put both cars on tire and the GTP would give a very good run if not win. Street tire to street tire or from a roll, the TL should win.
