Granted it's not a Merc 63 AMG or anything but it's mine, it's got heated leather and a roof as well as a factory screen a decent suspension and a 6.0 V8. As Jeremy Clarkson said it himself "It's performance rivals the BMW M5, and it costs 5 times less, and why you may ask? Because it's 5 times less complicated...and I love it"--Top Gear Vauxhall VXR8

I love these cars... I did a 24 hour test drive with the GXP and almost bought it

GXP is a rare bird, 1829 imported in 09 thats it

Awesome G8 GT man. I love how so many people on the road have no idea the power it has. Yours is tastefully modded as well

Well thank you very much, every time I come through the gate here on Drum or get gas I always get the "What is that?" question. I'm currently working with Carlos over at ADV.1 on selecting a good lightweight wheel that will handle the power level I want to achieve with the car. 600+whp

Very nice. I don't know much about the G8 GT but it's naturally aspirated right?. Do you plan on adding turbos or supercharger to accomplish the added hp?. if so I'm curious to know what kind of turbos or supercharger you pick

Sick ride I love g8 gt's and the new gto's they just make me feel good big 6.0 V8 straight piped sounds amazing!

@ Malibu, in 08 the GT was rated at 361hp and in 09 it was reduced to 355 due to the addition of 2 more cats called "pup cats". I will be supercharging my with a Vortech Centrifugal T-Trim which wasnt released in the US so I am getting on from a company in Australia called Cappa Performance. The G8 is also known as the Holden VE Commodore in Australia and the Vauxhall VXR8 in Europe

@ Stick, in this day and age I couldnt agree more

Cool cars, a friend has one.
