What is different about this G8?

[mtolivecracker]

Ive been looking at this picture i found online and cant figure out why its soo different than other pictures of the G8. Its not color, I love how it looks, i think its got something to do with the height and lower grill.

Main thing is: IT"S NOT RED!!!!! :rofl:

Other thing is, I 'tink it's a GXP. Also, Pontiac's ad agency prolly photoshopped the crap out of it.

Actual answer: I dunno.....:uhm:........:hmm:..... :huh:

It DOES look great tho'.

Look at the front airdam. It's taller visually than it should be. Whoever modified this picture basically just stretched and enlarged a center stripe of it to give the G8 the appearance of a more pronounced ground effects kit. The shapes involved haven't otherwise changed from a stock G8 GT.

EDIT: For reference, compare with the picture of the GT in the image in this Automobile Mag article (http://www.automobilemag.com/reviews/editors_notebook/0812_2009_pontiac_g8_gt/blaupunkt_stereo.html), which image actually appears to be the original. While there, enjoy the amusing article.

The picture is definitely a GT. Just photo-manipulated.

Actually, the amusing thing is noting that he prefaces his little list of complaints by noting that he wrote them down before realizing that the fader was set all the way to the front speakers. No wonder he wasn't getting any bass!

BWAHAHAHAHAAA! I missed that. What a dork! :p Probably drives a 3 1/2 cylinder Sentra with a transistor radio hanging from the mirror. :rofl:

Deff a chop.
Look how low the rear is.

Lol. I was thinking the same thing! Those are huge.

I like it, looks mean, like it wants to eat your dog or something.

I'm personally not a fan. I didn't think it was possible to make a ricer out of the G8, but I was wrong!
