Look at this turd. Who does it think it is? It’s like someone drew a car by filling their nose with paint, and just sneezed onto a canvas and boom, there was your design. Look at it. It’s so full of itself. It’s Australian too. Fucking Australians. Also, the name. Pontiac. Pontiac is a city that I think is near Detroit, so it sucks. This car was so terrible that it killed Pontiac.

(Disclaimer: I may be making this post in hopes that you will all start a Pontiac G8 hate bandwagon so maybe the damn things can depreciate and I can actually have one)

Would take a G8 GXP over an SS anyday. And would consider a GT over an SS. Looks way better.

Yeah but $30k for a manual that’s 8 years old is a bit much and well out of my price range.

I appreciated the attempt, but this car is a future classic, no doubt.

The problem here is that you risk allowing some other schlubs being able to afford a G8 as well and they’ll all ruin it, thus driving G8 prices up again.

In seriousness, from what I’ve seen, the comment section is often exactly opposite in tone. People who agree are content and stay quiet, people who don’t agree voice their opinions.

Saw an SS in Austin yesterday with Holden badges, and I immediately yelled, “Liar!” Then I thought about it for a second, and decided that everyone who WASN’T rebadging their G8s and SSs were the real liars.

As a G8 owner for the past 6 years, I’m pretty qualified in saying they are great. One of the best domestic sport sedans to be had. With that said it’s still a GM. I’ve probably spent 3 or so grand in repairs over the lifetime of my ownership.

I’d take the GT over the GXP given the price gulf. You can make up the power differential easily and cheaply.

True an LS is an LS but you could only get a manual in GXP form.

It’d still be cheaper to swap in a manual.

I see this is a troll. But you should retract the statement that this is a troll and get some real facts. Some criticism could be that the battery is in the back or something I like the car, and i am not going to help you with your criticism. Try harder. But this is like a year old so nobody will read this...
