The GP has the OBDII interface and doesn't use the CAN-Bus protocol like the later gen 2's. If you want to double check, the CAN protocol would require the following pins to be populated in your OBDII connector.

Pin
5 Ground
6 Data
14 Data
16 Power

Correct - the OBD-II in the GP is NOT CAN compatible.
