Replying to: rockylee (Feb 11, 2007 6:49 am) my man, i would be the last do deny you your uber fast 4-door sedan with all the latest gizmo goodness, but as a pontiac it just won't happen (they may, over time, with all these nifty cars, be able to increase their cachet but it would take years to do that). right now they are billing themselves as performace, not luxury, and they haven't really been performace for years. first they have to get the performance then they could think about adding the luxury. although, bringing over all the holden models as luxury performance in the next couple of years would be interesting - could pontiac do it? they have a lot of mea culpa-ing to do first. one thing we can probably all agree on is that having this thing coming over is just really neat-o.

Replying to: creamcitian (Feb 11, 2007 8:42 am) CTS-V. I would also be really happy with the 08 CTS.  Rocky

Replying to: rockylee (Feb 11, 2007 9:32 am) CTS-V is a great car, I just can't justify the cost as a street car and don't have deep enough pockets to justify the cost as a road-race car. I'm still running about a $4000 total investment road race car that's 12 years old.  -mike |

in here: G8 production may come here based on demand. "It is highly likely that as we move to higher volumes for the global rear-drive architecture, we will begin to produce" in North America, said GM Vice Chairman Bob Lutz. "Importing from Australia at this point is a transitional phase. It permitted us to get the car quickly and for a minimum of investment." I hope they hit the demand. What I like: The G8 is 2.1 inches shorter than the Grand Prix, but its wheelbase is 4.3 inches longer, and the vehicle is 3.2 inches wider. So, no more ridiculous overhangs and a car that may actually have as much working space as the exterior implies? All good in my book, and a heck of a step forward for the General! Know what I hate? Waiting...
