  1. maybe i will hold on to mine for longer than i thought i would they might as well get rid of Pontiac now great job GM.....i guess its because they might not be around much longer i guess i can throw away my dreams of Ford bringing over the Falcon because i know they were watching how the G8 would do
  2. well it looks like it is going to be an engine with a top mounted intercooler(hood scoop)
  3. half assed..... i fail to see how keeping the 4.0L is a good decision
  4. OMFG they do that down here! its so stupid but i was just up in orlando this weekend and it sure is better but still not as nice as texas and im in Miami a lot as well.....i have been to Peru, and the Miami International Airport reminds me of the Lima airport......its like there are no rules and people just jay walk all around your car oh and buses in Miami are in spanish a lot of the time....same with a lot of billboards im half spanish and ill be the first to say that a lot of spanish people(including some of my family) have that "their shit don't stink" thing that you guys think texans have
  5. yeah i will especially do this behind the rear wheels because they do stick out a little from the wells(which i think looks badass) i just hope it is not very expensive ill probably get it done when i get my windows tinted
  6. ok so i went out to go check if these are really problems... -button works now -chips are from rocks from a trip i just recently took on a construction ridden highway -realized my psi in all my tires are about 15-20 over what is recommended so i lowered them and will see if it continues tomorrow i guess i should have investigated more into my problems before posting them here
  7. i had a focus that was worse... and these things are so minor...im just keeping people updated
  8. Updated first post -there is a paint chip problem...im going to think about getting a 3M clear bra put on -there is wheel shake(steering wheel) at 60-70 mph(think it has to do with my 18 all-seasons) -engine sounds better now -button does not work on stereo -comfortable on long trips(ft. lauderdale to orlando)
  9. go try it.....there are some good october deals on it. the only gripe i think you would have with it would be the transmission but there is a transmission update from the dealer that is supposed to get rid of lag in between gears(i need to go get it) the lag happens when you slow down and go into 2nd and then accelerate again oh and the manual mode is pathetic....but i hear an aftermarket tune makes it very responsive the thing i noticed most is that my friends do not mind getting in the back seat....because it is so huge
  10. i was thinking about a used audi s4 before my G8 GT but....i heard of some reliability problems with shafts and such....and modding the car was expensive, plus the G8 is bigger and cost just a little more new than a used 2004 S4 P.S. i put into consideration virtually all performance sedans(big and small/V8/V6/I4T) before i decided the G8 was the best deal
  11. i hope it is at least 30 hp and 20 tq and get a little better handling out of it i have not heard much on the 5.0L lately actually i have not heard anything power wise on the new mustang lately
  12. im just saying that they are really building up the hype for it
  13. this 2010 mustang better be something great and not just a re-designed body im afraid that Ford is putting out all these teaser photos and then will just release marginally better performance specs
  14. looks great! but there is a little too much happening on the hood but the design is killer!
  15. Autoblog.com i don't know if im a fan of the hood scoop since one of the sweet things about the current MS3 is that it looks like a regular Mazda3 hatch curious as to what is going under the hood though
  16. if its a V8 in a FWD based platform.....then i do not care
  17. if you think people being nice are annoying then sure...Texans are very annoying but if you want "their shit don't stink" annoying....come down here to South Florida, we have about 80% of that shit......seriously its horrible down here i am in texas a lot and people always wave when you do them a favor or such in traffic.....i even had one guy get out of his truck and give me "exact change" when i went into the wrong toll both never in a thousand years would i expect that in this shit hole called South Florida what im saying is their stereotype for being cowboys, sometimes rings true but they sure as hell are not arrogant....maybe the drunk 20 year olds but those are every where
  18. my G8 GT has a remote start from the factory......now i just need to get a nice sounding exhaust to compliment the remote start when im walking to my car the A/C also blows air in the car to try and get it to 71 degrees as soon as possible on hot days....im sure it does the opposite on cold days get the factory one
  19. really? thanks for contributing useful shit back on topic....im not sure which is better: best overall truck or best pickup
  20. its too late man.... we might have to live with it....i think we will be ok though....backlash will come
  21. well before GM got in bed with Chrysler.... i thought GM should look like this... Pontiac/Cadillac = affordable performance/luxury performance Chevy/Buick = affordable appliance/luxury appliance and as far as the GMC problem.....separate chevy into their cars and their trucks and sell their trucks where GMC was(they re the same damn thing) or just kill the Silverado(not a good choice) and sell just the Sierra as GM's truck sell the rest of their brands and do not get into Chrysler
  22. i like where this is going... here in the states it will be a Subaru i believe but everywhere else, a Toyota i just hope they don't sprinkle the Toyobaru crap styling on this very potential little car
  23. chrysler is going to die or they both will this should have never happened
