What do you think of the Pontiac G8? I've been seeing a couple of them floating around now and they are gorgeous. They just look fast compared to other cars. I'm a Pontiac fan(I own an 00 Grand Prix) so perhaps I'm biased. As such I wanna know what you regular people think. Doc, the car is built in Austrailia... And Accords/Camrys are built in the US and they are reliable.
What do you think of the new Pontiac G8? I think the new Pontiac G8 is a hot car. Reviews compared it to one of the BMW series being pretty much the same but half the price.

Pontiac is definitely moving in the right direction, what do you guys think? pic here http://www.pontiac.com/g8/

Important advice on what kind of exaust i should put on my pontiac g8? I love my car more than anything. Its clean and fast but way to quit.

What will happen to the Pontiac G8? It seems that GM would be utterly stupid to kill that car. It's got it all- looks, power, performance, and practicality. Are there plans to preserve it under a new brand? I think it would make a great reincarnation of the Impala or Caprice!
Does the pontiac G8 come in a V4 model? I know it comes in V6 but i'm not sure if it comes in V4 or not.. wikipedia is not a resourceful site, its all info that anyone can write, hence why i asked the question.

Estimated price for the Pontiac G8? I know the new Pontiac G8, scheduled to come out in early 2008, doesn't have a price on it yet. But if you had to take an educated guess, what price range do you think it'll be in?

Pontiac G8 as a daily driven? Love everything about the Pontiac G8, but there's some concerns about the car. It's a heavy car. How well does it handle turns? Seen some videos reviews of the G8 not being quick to responsive. What are the pros/cons of your G8's drive? Gas prices any trouble?
Why is Pontiac offing the Grand Prix for the G8 name? Why is Pontiac (GM) getting rid of the Grand Prix name for the G8. It would have made more sense for them to say the Grand Prix got another make over, instead of cutting it off all together. If poor auto sales are the excuse, it's not the Prix's fault, its been selling just fine for the last 40+ years with the same name. So by mid 2008, Pontiac will be selling the G5, the G6, and the G8 (all very different models with similar names. Didn't Ford and Mercury try this (Naming all their cars with F's or M's) which failed miserably since nobody could remember all of them, or mixed them up? And I know the new G8's are based off of Australian designs (as was the recent GTO), but they won't be imports, right? Any other Grand Prix fans not happy about this. The G8 is a good looking car, though it could have been better with the Grand Prix name on it.
Wat does everybody think of that new pontiac G8? Australian built and made for the rest of the world to love, 361bhp rear wheel drive 6 speed manual that will astound u if u like it try looking at more of our aussie cars like the ford perfomance vehicles ( FPV)and HSV's holden special vehicles

Do I buy a Pontiac G8 GT now? I know Pontiac is done after 2010, but I'm wondering what GM will do to move the G8 GT, what incentives, pricing, etc... I'm not worried about the warranty, it is back by GM and I'm sure soon, the U.S. government. I have test driven the car and what it offers for the price is great. Has anyone heard how far GM is going to go to move the car, what incentives, pricing, etc...?
Help me choose: Audi A3 vs Benz C230 sport vs Pontiac G8 GT? I'm just having a hell of a problem choosing between these cars.

Will the Pontiac G8 feature Heads-Up Display (HUD)? Considering the Grand Prix has been keeping HUD in the cars for twenty years and the Bonneville also featured it, will the new Pontiac G8 that is replacing them feature HUD? It is very useful as I rarely ever look down at the speedometer. BMW even features a more advanced system displaying more info in more colors. So why would they kill it off?

Pontiac G8 to Holden/Vauxhall? I am just wondering if a standard US Pontiac G8 can be easily altered cosmetically to look like the Holden/Vauxhall counterpart.

Two very different cars: Pontiac G8 and Accord Coupe V6. Which one to buy? Simple enough. I want to get one of these two cars: either the Pontiac G8 -BASE EDITION (V6) NOT THE V8- or the new Honda Accord 2008 Coupe EX-L V6. The Honda is faster, has leather standard, a sunroof, better audio (at least it has more watts-270 to 230), etc. But when it comes to looks I'd prefer the G8. But what do you guys, experts and casual consumers, think I should get? It's tough, and I really like both cars and I know that they are both awesome choices. I am going to test drive them both tomorrow.
I want a Pontiac G8 GT with a 6-speed Manual. Who else does?? Stupid Dodge doesn't offer a manual transmission on magnum, 300, or charger. Way to go Pontiac. this might actualy get me into a domestic car. I think the G8 is hot.and I already am married, don't need chicks. Also a real enthusiast wants to be in control of the shifting, not some computer.

Would you pick a Pontiac G8 GT or a BMW 550I? I've been car shopping for the last 2-3 months for my first car & I pretty much love BMW but can't make up my mind on which one I've gone from the X5 to the 335. Now I made up my mind on the 550I but my mom is now trying to get me to go with the new G8 GT, she says its cheaper & the insurance will be cheaper. I don't really know much about the G8 GT but the first one I saw was on Youtube & saw some pictures & it looks great but don't really know much about it plus should I really pick a Pontiac over a BMW?

Anyone Else Want a Pontiac G8? Reviews are coming out and I want one so bad! It's only 1/10th of a second slower in the 1/4 Mile than an SRT-8 Charger. It blows the doors off the RT Charger. It also looks better and costs less. I SOOO want one! I wish I could afford it. According to Edmunds it did the Slalom 1 MPH faster(66 MPH) than the last BMW 535 they tested.
