Went to a dealership and checked out the G8!!
Seems like a nice car. Saw one at the auto show the other day, but they wouldn't let anybody get too close to it.
They say it'* coming to Canada, but right now it'* on the Transport Canada prohibited vehicle list and can't be imported into the country. Waiting to see how this plays out.

Dealer just got them in and is taking orders...
Well after a quick drive of a GT............Dealer wouldn't let me drive it alone and would only allow a around the block test drive.
My BMW 745i is safe.....but why? Why is a 2002 bmw car safe from a 2009 GM? This car should have blown mine away :
Guess my standards are too high? And guess what it didn't even have HUD as an option? isn't that like a Pontiac trademark?

I'd go for the warranty.

No offense, Shadow, but not only is the G8 cheaper and faster, it'* also MUCH better looking (I realize it'* opinion, but a popular opinion with most people. Bangle sucks
), not every command is controlled by an annoying joystick and it'* got that "awesome" factor.

If you don't count the warranty on my new engine.
