    Pontiac G8 GXP - 6.2L LS3 & 6MT

    New York Auto Show: 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP Revealed, Gets Corvette LS3 Power And A Manual Transmission



    PONTIAC ANNOUNCES THE 2009 G8 GXP

    High-Performance Flagship Combines Progressive Design and Powerful Performance

    NEW YORK - Today Pontiac announced the flagship of its GXP performance series, the G8 GXP high-performance sedan, at the New York Auto Show. This 2009 model will join the Solstice, G6 and Torrent GXP models in Pontiac dealerships in late 2008. The G8 GXP takes the G8's responsive driving experience, refined passenger environment and aggressive good looks to a new level. It also delivers an enjoyable driving experience, thanks to a 6.2L V-8 that produces in excess of 400 horsepower.

    Thats fine, you were quick to fix it.

    I saw just the plain G8 today for the first time in person. I like the looks of car, and it sure beats the grand am and grand prix that came before it...

    Holden is not the owner of GM. It's the other way around. Keep your thoughts about Holden and the Pontiac front clip to yourselves.

    Thank you,

    Might as well own them they cant build shit.



    Yeah that front grill is way to low, What was wrong with the L97 engine? 270kw a couple of small mods and it's 300kw easy enough.

    I thought this was a FORUM?
    If you're liable to get upset about another person's opinion, you're in the wrong place, buddy.

    No, this is Sparta.

    I was only kidding, kind of. I said it as a joke because every time the Australians see the G8 they brag about it's Commodore roots and how the Pontiac grille treatment looks terrible.

    Now you can relax, hopefully.
