Nice cars! I still think that grille is ugly as hell though.

G8 GXP is pretty sweet.

I know it's not in the clip but in all honestly - I don't find the new vibe that bad

Love the copper G8.
HATE the resurrected El Camino.
Luke-warm on the Solstice coupe. I think more thought could've gone into the looks of the roof and rear window. It looks very last-minute tacked-on.

I'll be happy with the G8 GT coupe comes to market.

I've never been impressed with Pontiac. The interiors always felt cheap and I don't trust anything GM sells.

I guess you have not been in a GTO or seen a G8. Its light years ahead of their other offerings. The interior in the Holden based cars are VW and Honda worthy.

I'm anxious to see if Pontiac inflicted their hard, grainy plastics upon this car. If I can EVER catch an interior glimpse. The one at the car show was up on a pedestal with the doors shut.

Maybe there's a reason for that...

LOL that crossed my mind as I walked away from it in disgust.

I hate to say it, but the G8 interior... which I was expecting to be similar in quality to the monaro/gto, falls short in my eyes. I spent 3 mins in one at a pontiac booth at the gator nationals a few weeks back, and left with a frown on my face. I simply don't remember this when driving the commodore counterpart last year :( Only thing I can say is that since the pontiac was a display car, maybe the center console wiggled freely with only slight pressure because this car had seen so many people giving it a hard once over on the interior? Either way, I'm sort of disappointed. Definitely not a gto interior...
