Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - Trade Camaro V6 for G8 GT (G8 owners step in)

Initially, I wanted a G8 GT but they were snatched up as soon as I went to a dealership. I test drove a G8 GT and I was very disappointed. Drove like a sluggish dog. They Sonata they had me test drive afterwards was waaay more fun and responsive.

So I got the Camaro V6. Problem is more back seat room is needed as the kid is growing very, very fast. So I'm looking at getting a 2009 G8 GT again and mod it as it has enough backseat room is huge.

G8 Owners:
1) Was MPG really bad? 15/24 is kinda frightening.

2) Performance ok for you? Did you use premium to get rid of KR? I guessed this is why the G8 was sluggish.

3) Were you bored with it? What mods you did that helped that out?

I know there is a G8 forum but I prefer to hear from G8 owners here to get more unbiased opinions.
