    Linky no worky.

    The G8's aren't bad IMO. They just seem like an odd mix. It's like they slammed a V8 into a Chevy Impala then Pontiac'd it. I dunno.

    I've seen one in person but not sat in it. I dunno man, the car just comes off as confused to me. I would have preferred they just renamed the GTO to the G8 since, well, the Monero was obviously no GTO but it still looked decent.

    I might be mistaken, but i was under the impression G8's only come in a 5sp atuo or 6sp auto? It is possible to get a stick??? Honestly the HP and TQ rating are awesome but if it is only available in auto that kills the car for me.

    Completely
