Re: '09 Pontiac G8 GT Gets Optional 6-speed Manual
Lets see:
8 cylinders - check 6 gears - check 3 pedals - double check 2 doors - check (could deal with four, I guess) 1 fun ride - Camaro Torn between three vehicles, 2 of which aren't even available for sale G8 GT, G8 ST, or Camaro. Come on GM, I am waiting patiently. Keep my Monte running a little while longer, and when I get my own garage. Maybe I should get a big truck, should be able to get one of those pretty cheap now....

Re: '09 Pontiac G8 GT Gets Optional 6-speed Manual
SWEET (both pieces of news - the 6 speed and the goofy gauges). This cements my decision to wait for an '09! Thx!
I don't suppose anyone knows when the manual would be available (or would hit the ground)? |

Re: '09 Pontiac G8 GT Gets Optional 6-speed Manual
Pontiac G8 with the manual really is a 30 grand M5. IMO
Should attract many new people into Pontiac dealerships. Does any body know? Time to advertise People don't know. IMO

Re: '09 Pontiac G8 GT Gets Optional 6-speed Manual
NO MANUAL GT:
...We still intend to offer the six-speed manual transmission as an option on the GXP model released late this year, however we have no current plans to offer the manual tranny on any other G8 model. It's possible there was some confusion over the GT vs. GXP... http://jalopnik.com/396917/2009-pont...-with-slushbox |
