The Pontiac G8 is a Very Fun Car to Drive. Is Comfortable and is a great car to take trips in. The car runs effortlessly has no trouble passing or leaving other cars at the lights. Damn shame GM killed it in the states.

After tiring of driving my wife's CR-V to work, I needed something a little more sportier when the weather didn't cooperate with my motorcycling. We needed four doors and we didn't want to break the bank. I stumbled upon this Pontiac, and what luck! The only con I see to this G8 is the cup holders in the front. They sit too far back. There are no cup holders in rear of the cabin which is inconvenient. And a lack of a navigation system is disappointing. However, that all melts away when you smash down the accelerator. All in all, I'm very pleased with our purchase and hope that we spent $25K on a great product.

I've had my G8 for 3 years now and it had to be one of the best decision I've ever made. If you're looking for a car that turns heads in performance and looks then this is the car for you

My GXP is a garage queen. 3000 miles after 15 months. BUT it has been slightly modified. Kooks headers, Vararram cold intake, cat delete, SLP supercharger, engine tune and trans tune. It is simply the greatest sleeper ever. A 4 door sedan that can blow just about anything off the road! If you like 500 HP at the rear wheels, this is the way to go. Keep in mind Fly wheel HP doesn't tell the whole story! All these inflated HP numbers are at the Fly Wheel. They made me rate fuel economy. WHO CARES? At this performance level and low miles driven, it does not matter.

Love my G8 when I first saw one I was like I have to get that car it looked good, I did just that own mine for 4years now. Did have problems when I first got where the engine kept coming on it was do to the gas cap it had to be replace which it was happening to a lot of the G8s. The other thing I have had problems with is the sit on the driver side the shift had come a loose had to have it fix 3 times in 4 years, other than that it's a excellent car it keeps the heads turning all the time.
