G8 GXP I Have Pics ;-)

[Code Red]

I took these up at woodward in front of a GM Engineers house when me and a few friends were invited over

I saw one on the road the other day in Noblesville, IN. I didn't know what it was at the time. The hood scoops is what caught my eye.

Oh, Maybe. All I saw was the scoops on the hood & the arrowhead on the front. Is the GXP rear wheel drive or still front?

Looks like a mini version of the Caddy to me.

I'm considering selling my projects and parts for one. I love them. Wonder why we haven't heard more about them as opposed to the Challenger or Camaro. It has all the power and a 6 speed. Maybe because its a four door.

that's a sexy car. wow. the only thing i don't like about it after browsing through the pictures is the e-brake. it just looks weird. other than that i'd buy one of those in a heartbeat............... if i could afford it.

When it's down, it blends with the console simular to the grab handle on the other side.

ah. hadn't thought about that. makes sense now.

just like the GTO of 04-06 the build quality on these cars is fantastic. I love the G8. I'm not sure why GM isn't pushing the car more other than it not being "fuel efficient". If it had heritage like the camaro and challenger it would get pushed more I'm sure. I wonder how long it'll be before people complain about it being a rebadged Holden? I need time to get my pimp hand warmed up for some slapping.

LMAO

I get so pissed when people dis the new GTO's for the lamest reasons. Of course these same people would go on to bash GM quality. Then in the end you find out they had never even sat in a new GTO. I'm just guessing the same thing will happen with this car and the Ute when it get's here.

well, i'm sorry, but from the few pictures i've seen of that Ute, i think it is ugly beyond description. sure, maybe the quality of the build is nice, but that doesn't cut it for me. the only way i'd take one of those is if it was given to me - and then i would immediately turn around and sell it.
those are just my thoughts on the car though. others may like it and more power to them. it's just most definitely not for me.

My problem with the Ute is the lack of visibility out the rear window. Although they do look great from HSV (Holden Special Vehicles).

So which front end do you prefer on the G8? The Pontiac one, the Holden one or the HSV one?

Holden SS one ->


HSV one ->


The reason I ask is that we can now get G8 front end parts (hood, grill and bumper) through Holden Spares and a few guys are looking at changing over to the Pontiac design, and I know that a few GTO owners swapped out your front end for ours as well.

[SaturnVUEguy]

For me its a toss-up between the Pontiac and HSV front ends. The hood with scoops on the GT and GXP looks great and really adds a special touch. Something about those fog light bezels on the HSV that I don't care for, with 2 lights there

[bwhinnen]

Two lights are; Foglights and driving lights (driving lights come on with High beam only).

Perhaps you'll like this modification then:

OOH that does look nice with that hood!
