Pontiac G8
Here’s a controversial endorsement: Recommending a car from a soon-to-be-defunct manufacturer — in this case Pontiac, which General Motors will discontinue at the end of the year. The fact that most people won’t give the G8 sedan a second look simply because it’s a Pontiac makes it all the more qualified for this list. Based purely on its inherent value, the Pontiac G8 offers a lot of car for the money, particularly for those who appreciate the fine driving dynamics of rear-wheel-drive vehicles. Of the three engines offered — a V6 and two V8s — the less-powerful of the two V8s is the best value: It delivers the iconic sound and acceleration of an American muscle car without going overboard.

How sad is it, that all the over looked cars are foreign made?

I saw that this morning, and was just about to post a link to it. That article was a good way to start my morning!

I saw the article as well. It is sad that the G8 never got a decent chance.

Yes, it is sad. The G8 died before it had a chance to prove itself and become popular. In a way it works on our behalf since not as many will be around, but on the other hand, we have no replacement in a few years.
