What do you guys think about it. I have a serious love for this car.

It comes in at about 32grand the way I want it.
Pretty good numbers from the 6liter vette engine
361 hp and 385 lb-ft of torque, mated to a six-speed automatic.
and top it off GM finally came back to rear wheel drive v8 muscle

60 mph in an impressive 5.3 seconds
13.7-second quarter-mile.
cylinder deactivation feature, the V8's fuel economy is 15/24 mpg rating

good handling and amazing braking 60-0 in 109ft thats m3 good.
for a car approximately the size of a 5 series.

of course I'd attempt to massage the engine up to 400hp and 400ft/lbs and get some nicer rims ,tints and call it a day.
oh yeah a passport 9500 detector should be mandatory with it.

here are some photos.

So it's a 06 GTO with 40 less hp. Don't get me wrong i like it but idk why they took a GTO and call it a G8.

Remember the GTO is a 2dr and this is a 4dr

Similar styling but it has the new Zeta platform that the new Camaro is based on.
 






that looks nice
 


















Hurl! Looks like an Aztek front end.
 












any other opinions on the G8 now that they are out there
