"Now," says the G8 to the SRT8. "about those tenths of a second you beat me by..."

The G8 is replacing both the Bonneville and the Grand Prix, hence the bump in size.

With the recent demise of the brand the Pontiac G8 could go the same way as the ill-fated GTO, but if that means no more GXP we are going to have to ask Obama for our bail out money back. It would be just like an American automaker to kill a $37,610 sedan that makes a BMW M5 seem ridiculously overpriced. GM is offering a $3,500 cash incentive on all variations of the G8 Sedan.
