that is such a phenominal color. those are great cars, i wish i was in a position to get another car, i'd be in one of those in a heartbeat! the Holden Commodore is one of my alltime favorite cars, and i've wanted one for a very long time (why am i so drawn to cars not sold here? who knows haha), and this is as close as i can get. i'd love to import an older Commodore, but that would be such a hassle, so i want one of these!

Looking at all the specs on the LS-3/6 Speed combination in the various applications, it appears that the exhaust system may be the only difference between a 402 hp G8, 426 hp Camaro, and the 438? hp Corvette. Are you going to eventually explore some possibilities in that regard?

Damn that's bad-ass, and I have heard that there are some serious mods for it out now! I wanted one when I got my SS, but the GTs starting price was more than my final price, I didn't want to even try to go over $30k!

Fantastic! That is one sharp car, especially in that ice-cold blue! 
Nice deal as well!
I have always been partial to Pontiacs of course... I've owned about 12 of them already! How is the acceleration in the G8 compared to the SS?
