This is HUGELY exciting folks! This all but guarantees our production Camaro will be a nearly dead-ringer to the concept! All they changed was the wild concept wheels (duh) and some minor practicality changes!

Oh man, this is great news. As for the G8, I really am excited about the possibilities of the car, but I gotta hope that Holden builds a better car than Pontiac, and that the car is more holden than Pontiac in the end. like I've said in other G8 discussions, I am beyond disappointed with Pontiac quality...the cars they are pumping out right now are complete trash (as far as quality)...loud, cheap plastic everywhere, electronics that just don't do anything right, etc.

I'll be watching them closely for sure.

I seen that same car saturday and snapped a few pics of it. It was nice i guess, but didn't do much for me.

Wonder how long before a GXP to kick the BMW M3's ass will be out

the rumor that the to be announced GXP model will have the same supercharged 6.3 V8 with almost 600 or so HP that will be in the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V

Never doubted GM's potential for this kind of thing.

But good News non the less.

That's a nice looking car, if I weren't hooked on getting this Camaro, I'd seriously think about getting tha G8.

BumbleBee · 08-23-2007, 01:56 PM

This is just what Pontiac needs

*DGthe3* · 08-23-2007, 07:50 PM

The changes that have been made sound exactly like the type of changes that GM has promised for the camaro

i read here its the g8 gt will have 361 hp and 385 torque

not bad for a base price of 29k.
