I know what I'm buying when they are retired...

.. the Chevrolet Caprice PPV... Australian-built RWD Caprice.. so basically a beefed up and stretched Holden.
It's as big as a Crown Vic and faster than a Camaro with it's V8 Pursuit package.

I'm sure Gwinnett Co is getting it... now I have to memorize a new set of headlights.

That thing is pretty boss looking!

[HATERDAN]

so its a G8 with mini van headlights?

I like it. a used undercover model would make a great highway car. nearly same wheelbase as a JZX100 Mark II.

I think it's a lot bigger.. the wheelbase alone is nearly 5" longer than the G8.

you are correct sir. They're thinking of bringing the G8 back with the Holden bumpers, just rebadging it and possibly calling it a Chevelle.

LAWD I want a G8 GXP, but they are still expensive.

the g8 gxp should never have been taken out of production...yea i know pontiac went under......but somebody should have picked it up and
rebadged it........i seriously hope it does come back as a chevelle or something (as long as they dont go changing its awesomeness under the hood
and the suspension). that car is the perfect starting point for a competitive drift car. nice and burly!

Was looking at the G8 GXP and the 04-05 Cadillac CTS-V before I got the BMW...

The G8 was next to impossible to find in manual and people wanted crack money for it..
The caddy was still hard to find.. I couldn't find one to test drive.. and the interior is the sucks.
Affordable though. $14-20k if you could find one nearby.

Then I thought about an E39 M5.. and then I looked at maintenance and thought again.

You already have a dream car... You're not allowed to want anything else!
