So do Aussies think Corvettes are cool (they are not) the same way us Yanks think the Commonwhores are cool?   :rofl:  :rofl:  :rofl:

 

 

 

 

Much better...   B)

See, but that's cool because it's fast as all hell... and moderately practical. Apparently we're not allowed to have those two things in the same car in America.

Pontiac G8, basically a rebadged Holden Commodore from Australia. Monster V8, RWD, 6spd manual, and tons of fun.  B)

 

Those were really cool, for a while, right after GM announced Pontiac was getting the axe, you could have one from a dealer for a killer deal. Now they're a premium anywhere since they didn't really make that many. 

 

Unfortunately I've heard not so great things about the fit and finish of the car, seeing as it was in the midst of one of GM not so great quality control runs. The Holden also looks better IMO... just a little too much scoop madness on the G8. 

 

Then there's the Chevy SS, which falls on the other side of the styling spectrum, with not enough aggression.

AND the Chevy SS is rather expensive (like in the 45-50k range once you get out the door...) At that point you should just go pick up a previous gen Cadillac CTS-V or the new ATS-V (which is also really badass in my opinion).

The American Sportscar Series is like the special olympics of car racing. No doubt the "Cadillac" team has done well at the Pirelli World Challenge Series. They might shit pumpkin pie for all I care, it's still GM, and that I can not abide.

Seriously, not to be rude, but doesn't that sort of invalidate your opinion on the car? You hate it just because it was built by GM, not because of what it is or isn't? 

 

It's like me saying, "I hate that 510 because it was built by Chuck".

 

Then you say "but it's really cool". 

 

Then I say "Yeah, but Chuck built it, so.."

 

 

:rofl:

Have you met Chuck?
