or maybe they are trying to break even on development and production costs? is the g8 one of the better sellers, when compared their other products in the GM lineup? i'm just guessing...

i still wish somehow saturn could be reorganized some more and be the GM division that sells all of their overseas models, like the commodore/g8, the insignia, astra (with the turbo engine!), etc.

i gotta agree with you too. I see a LOT of G8s lately. Someone should walk into a dealer and see if its actually on sale. it is one nice looking car. =)

TSN's Motoring just named the Pontiac G8 best family car over $30k for 2009

JV6 06-08-2009 02:48 PM

parking lot at work is full of these

orange7 06-08-2009 02:52 PM

i see a lot of black G6 and black G8.

ilvtofu 06-08-2009 04:18 PM

yup Black G8s seem to be quite popular,
the styling of that car is a little too anonymous for my liking,

Dumbest thing I've heard all week

keifun 06-08-2009 05:36 PM

Yeah, same here. I've been noticing a lot of G8's on the road too.

they actually looks pretty decent to me.

Timpo 06-08-2009 07:19 PM

yeah pontiac doesn't exist anymore so it should be cheap to buy

Roach 06-08-2009 07:23 PM

It's a shame this car came so late. So easy to extract power, tasteful looking and nice with a drop and rims...

That's actually pretty nice. Maybe the price on G8's will lower more as time goes on.

Timpo 06-08-2009 08:13 PM

the market needs more hybrids...and fuel efficient cars.

those V8s won't sell

Roach 06-08-2009 08:38 PM

So you'll be driving a Prius over an F430, right?

You know people will still buy V8's right.

also, they have a V6 version.


G8 > 300c/Magnum

by a long shot!

I think 300C is better...or more popular.

Well what do you think?

not just that, pontiac is not even available other than US and Canada from what I know.

also I dont think people are talking about it as much as when 300C debut.

300C gives kinda like badass look, whereas the G8 is sort of like a Camry...but a bit beefy. not saying camry isnt beefy

spenny 06-08-2009 11:53 PM

Pontiac isnt... havent you heard of Holden? How about Chevrolet?

As Pontiac is supposedly being scrapped, the G8 will be rebadged as a Chevrolet Lumina. (Which they already have in Dubai?)

How can you compare a piece of garbage appliance Camry to a G8?:rolleyes:

RE-Jo 06-09-2009 08:06 AM

People in Dubai drives Chevy?? I thought they only have Porsche/Ferrari/Lamborghini

thumper 06-09-2009 08:21 AM
