I just can't help but notice a lot more of them on the roads than ever, are they on some super bargain sale right now? I see at least 2 a day in Richmond alone....All in different colors too.:confused:

[3seriesBeeM]

you do know pontiac is dead now right there is no more pontiac. So I imagine they are a good deal but i dont know how the warranty would work out if pontiac is no more. Thats probably the reason there are alot pontiac is probably trying to clear out there lots

[03aspec]

im pretty sure that gm will still honor the warranty.

[hal0g0dv2]

they blow up once u turn them on

The warranty is honored by any GM dealer once Pontiac closes shop.

[Eff-1]

There are more now because supply is now arriving and and meeting demand. BC is always last on the list for new GM product to arrive on our roads.

But yes, if you were interested in buying one, now probably isn't a bad time to visit a dealer.

[ilvtofu]

wow seems like 3seriesBeeM hasn't been on rs for a while...

i lol'd:haha:

[thumper]

pontiac is still running 1/2 and full page ads in the newspapers for the G8s...

[Volvo-brickster]

i see lots of G8's, but none of the ones i have seen are the 6.0L V8

such a dissapointment

on the other hand, i have seen TONS of Caddilac V series rollin around out there

[JSALES]

haha pulp fiction

[Harvey Specter]

The V8's are actually nice. I seen a few on the road in Toronto.

A little premature there buddy... Pontiac will be phased out by the end of 2010. They are still being built, at the moment...

[XplodeTheBass]

hmmm seems pretty..... stalkerish?

[124Y]

I've been noticing a lot more G8s recently on the road as well.

[Chopstick]

but when gm goes bankrupt, who will honor that? (o__o)?? george bushie and his oil buddies? obama?

is the real question, that is.

in memoriam?

[q0192837465]

The G8 is a nice car. It's kinda sad that just as GM is finally making decent cars, they'r going under. If only they have another 5 or so years, they could turn things around, given that they kill the union.

[thumper]

getting confused... just read this and it says they will keep the G8 for another 5 more years, but after that it's over... so does that mean pontiac will still be around for that long, or just the car itself, but under another division (eg. chevrolet g8)?

[hk20000]

maybe it's because GM has to fulfill its OEM agreement with Holden for another 5 years?

[dark0821]

how fast are the V8s? mm.. i know.. always seem a good time to pick up some actual torque hehehheeh

[billboa]

i see so many of these everyday.

[fsy82]

the g8's are nice looking cars

[thumper]

maybe it's because GM has to fulfill its OEM agreement with Holden for another 5 years?

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.

[orange7]

they blow up once u turn them on

just like the gtr's warranty

[shenmecar]

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. =)

[Eff-1]

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

[JV6]

parking lot at work is full of these

[orange7]

i see a lot of black G6 and black G8.

[ilvtofu]

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

[m!chael]

Dumbest thing I've heard all week

[keifun]

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

they actually looks pretty decent to me.

[Timpo]

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

[Roach]

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

[CorneringArtist]

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

[Timpo]

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

those V8s won't sell

[Roach]

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

Kev

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.

[Leopold Stotch]

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

Well what do you think?

i honestly want to know.


do you think they're more popular because there's more on the street? well yea it's been selling for the past 4 years.

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]

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]

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

[thumper]

yeah there are tons of chevrolets out there... if it isn't an exotic, it's usually a chevy.i don't know why.

depends on which one has the body kit.
