CTS-V is one of the best cars out there period mixing luxury and performance. The price is low compared to competition but it is over 20 grand more than a G8 GXP.

I ALMOST bought a G8 GXP before I got my GS 450h in April. To make a long story short I could get a new G8 GXP for 37k out the damn door! The car IMO is sensational, I love how it looks, handles fine, nice Brembos and the interior is very well done though not luxurious. It was hard buying one though knowing Pontiac might not be around.

Well it isnt' around. Will it be a collector item? I don't know. I do know with what it offers for the price its really hard to beat.

Even the G8 GT with the 362hp V-8 is a great car. Mind you the Pontiac will be cheaper to modify and maintain.

Good luck!
