Nice, the complete package. Comfortable, practical, and fast.

I was really excited about the G8

then i saw it in real life and i thought it was still cool, but that car is wayyyyyyyyyyyy bigger then i thought it would be. its full size 4 door with a truck!! no wonder they compare it to a BWM.

When did 14psi on a stock 6.2l V8 become "just" 14psi? haha

I think g8's took over the Grand Prix crowd, i see them EVERYWHERE.

Yeah sorry about that...I have been talking with my friend alot about his diesel truck for a while now and I guess 14psi just seem so small now. Hes running 42psi. But still HUGE gains with a few mods.

The car looks really good, but I'm not a fan of the front end, mainly the headlights or grill

Seems to be a recurring looks issue with Pontiacs.

I like the G8, I think it looks good all around.

Actually, the top one is the GXP, the bottom one is the regular G8
