You are in the Pontiac Torrent Forum. Your Hosts are steve_ & tidester
Does anyone know specifically when the 2008 torrents will be going on sale? I need to purchase by the end of August. Any chance of getting a GXP by the end of Aug, or should I just grab a great deal on a 2007? I would love the increased performance, but I don't think I can wait, and is it even worth the extra $?

Vehicles generally begin arriving at dealerships about six to eight weeks after the start of production. We anticipate the arrival of the new 2008 Torrent GXP by mid to late August. For more information, please visit http://www.pontiac.com periodically. Our website is scheduled to be updated with 2008 product information in mid August. Your preferred Pontiac dealer will also have more information closer to the time of availability. You can find nearby dealers by using the dealer locator web tool on our website." If you can't wait, you might start drifting by the dealers now and act like you really aren't in a hurry. There should be some incentives coming to clear the 07's once the 08's start arriving. I'm in the NW where there is like a $3000 rebate on the Torrents and no reason to expect not to buy one close to invoice. (before the rebate) |

| I am looking at buying a 2007 fully loaded Torrent, about 30k. I see that the trany is made in Japan, but the engine in China. Is that so on the 2008? and thoughts on this? | |

Replying to: joey2brix (Aug 23, 2007 12:19 pm) If the Torrent GXP gets the Suzuki-built version, I could understand that, since they are shipping them to the plant at CAMI for the Suzuki XL7. However, the same engine (more or less) in the Aura, Vue, Outlook et all, G6, etc, is not built in a Suzuki plant. I'm going out on a limb in thinking that I saw Mexico on the window stickers of some of these cars with this engine. |

| GM makes the 3.6L DOHC VVT engines in Canada, but shipe those to the US. Mexico makes the 3.5 and 3.9L engines. | |
| Does anyone know the actual production numbers for the 2008 Torrent GXP? | |
