The Ute is being launced for 2010 with the 6.0Liter and a DSI 3.6Liter V6.....same as the new Caddy CTS here in the US. So far it has sold as expected with the limited availability.........people that gets to see it is just stunned that it is a GM product. They 1st think it is some "weird" BMW 5 series.....but then they say wait........."Pontiac Emblem???WTF..........Americans don't make something THIS good?" I tell them spot on.....it is made in Australia.:yeah:
The G8 wagon is not being introduced.......Americans and wagons is like son and mother in laws....usually don't talk much. But SUV.........heeeeeeeeeey wagon on steroids.....lets talk.......weird.
It has been well received amongst motor journalists too, it has been described from everything "The best from Pontiac yet, maybe too late" to "This will rewamp Pontiac's hard needed self esteem" and "The best performance dollar can buy". It is especially cool to see true F-Body enthusiasts that want a car with 4 doors, and younger kids that has only read about it in car magazines. It is building a following here in the US.......if the economy and gas prices (worst timing for the G8's intro really) I think it will do even better........enthusiasts are tired of the FWD craze from the last 20 years.
I'm extremely pleased with the car so far, I've had 24 cars before this....and nothing beats this in value for handeling, performance and comfort all in one package.....something that is hard to blend in to a package.
The orange deflector yeah........IF there is a white aftermarket I will might replace it with that? Else
