August 31, 200718 yr With 0-60 in the low 5s, it's "coming soon," indeed. The Pontiac G8, an all-new RWD performance sedan, arrive in early 2008. The G8 GT rolls with a 355hp+ 6.0L aluminum V8 with Active Fuel Management, a 6-speed automatic with Driver Shift Control, performance-tuned four-wheel independent suspension, Stabilitrak with all-speed traction control, limited-slip differential - and 0-60 in the low 5s*. A 261hp V6 will also be available. For more on G8, see pontiac.com or ask your Pontiac dealer *Pre-production information subject to change. G8 GT shown in Panther Black Metallic; 19-inch wheels included in available Sport Package.
August 31, 200718 yr Author Why does that site not open for me? Thanks for the direct link, BigPontiac. Also...wtf is with the 6.0l V8 discrepency?
August 31, 200718 yr Thats a beautiful shot of the car in that brochure too. I thought the horsepower rating was set at 362? What is this 355+ stuff?
August 31, 200718 yr 2008 Pontiac full-line brochure. Its thick, like 100+ pages.Damn.. If get an extra, send it to me.
August 31, 200718 yr Author I will also say this - the GXPs do not look nearly as bad as those original studio photos GM released made them out to be. Even with the Street Pack gaudiness (scoops and hammerhead spoiler), its not terrible. Without those, I'd say attractive even. The illustration in the brochure is much better.
August 31, 200718 yr Agreed, I was using the 360 feature last night at the site, rotating a G6 GXP coupe (sans stupid wing) in all the colors, and it looks pretty sharp, the sedan too.
September 1, 200718 yr Where is this brochure of which you speak? Its at any Pontiac dealer. Just walk on in and grab one off the rack.
September 1, 200718 yr If they made a 2dr hardtop like the 5th gen. Camaro I might seriously consider buying one new. As it stands maybe used in a few years.
