    Purchased mine 7/04/2009 ..still have it with almost 35k on her. Not my daily

    It was one of 3 G8s that were advertised at the Travelers Championship in 2009. I found numerous golf balls in the trunk. Apparently my G8s trunk was filled with boxes of golf balls and other professional golf items as a marketing tool for both Pontiac and the Tournament.

    I'm an original owner, but I bought a GXP and then sold my GT which I ordered from the factory.

    2009.5 MSM GXP 500ish N/A RWHP. Mods include but aren't limited to: Texas Speed 418 (6.8L) fully forged held together with ARP from top to bottom, PRC 255cc heads, Rick Crawford intake plenum, TB port, polish and tune, Roto-Fab 102mm CAI w/LS7 MAF, Kooks 1-7/8" headers wrapped with DEI, Corsa catless system, Circle D 3200 Stall, 3.45 final drive, BMR's complete street bushing kit and sway bars, Eibach Pro Kit, G-Force Axles, running on staggered VMR 710's with Bridgestone RE11 rubber. HSV triple gauge pack with Calais smokers kit mod, V6 tails, debadge/rebadge, V6 door handles, AU black door trim, Maverick Man under hood strut covers, & washer and bolt kit, fully corrected paint thanks to Adams Polishes and my hard work. Built with reliability in mind with some power for those times when you need to pass or go over a big hill. Just a poser, not a racer!

    May 2009, 34K miles now.

    Obviously not a DD. Doesn't go to malls either. Would love to take it on the numerous 3 hr drives to NYC to visit family but the horrible on street parking precludes that. Besides not fitting into the very few parking spots that we find, a couple other cars we did/do take got bumper damage. The last time I did take the G8 to NYC, ended up parking over night in a garage which cost me $27.
