Re: Local Vid: Pontiac G8 V6

The V6 doesn't look bad either...I love the clear taillights of the GT though.
21 MPG is pretty sweet as well.

No it really doesn't. I put a CTS-V exhaust on my CTS, it sounds a little meatier than this one, but this sounds pretty rhaspy, I LIKE

Meh, still sounds pretty generic like many v6's imo. But I understand the benefits in price/mpg and whatnot.

Re: Local Vid: Pontiac G8 V6

A manual would help the performance a bit...and mpg.

I'd go for this car, and it's the only Pontiac that I can say that about. I just wish it was a Chevrolet.

You can get the leather with the V6, correct?
