Even the police Caprice won't be a good comparison because its based on a larger car and will have extra weight due to the police gear. The G8 GT might have a 300 lb weight advantage over it.
The G8 isn't the only Pontiac where the GT and GXP have been similar in performance either. The G6 GT has a 219 hp 3.5L while the GXP has a 252 hp 3.6. Same difference in torque too. I don't have a clue what their times are (honestly, who would drag a G6 GT?) but I can't think they'd be too far off from each other.

apples and oranges indeed.
the LT trim on the New 2010 Camaro compared to the G8 GT was more what I guess I was saying in the first place.
But since the Camaro (for now) only has two trim levels it makes it hard for a straight comparison with a car that has 3 trim levels. (G8)
