I think the G8 is a friggin sweet car. If I didn't get my preorder, my backup plan was a G8 GT. Let some guy pay double the money for a car that is less powerful and gets worse milage just because it has leather seats made from baby seal butts and the guys at the country club all have one.
Its all about what you want though, I guess. I mean a $100,000 ZR1 is faster than a $300,000 dollar Ferrari; but if you want to be able to pick what color of leather your shift knob is gonna have while you listen to the opera on your 25 speaker audio system and little midgets rub your back and pour you champagne, get the Ferrari. Personally, I would put up with a normal interior and save the 200 K.
Back in the day, BMWs were a lot like the G8. Solid performance cars with a good build quality and a not obscene price. Now they have gone way upscale.
More cars like the G8 please.
