The Pontiac G8, produced from 2008 to 2009, was a rear-wheel drive full-size sedan that marked a return to performance and sportiness for the Pontiac brand. The G8 was built on the GM Zeta platform, which was also used for the Chevrolet Caprice and Holden Commodore, showcasing its strong foundation. The G8 was available in three trim levels: GT, GXP, and a limited-edition GXP with a six-speed manual transmission. The GT trim featured a 3.6-liter V6 engine, producing 256 horsepower, while the GXP and the manual GXP were equipped with a powerful 6.0-liter LS3 V8 engine, generating 402 horsepower. The G8 GXP boasted a 0-60 mph time of under 5 seconds, making it a serious contender in the performance sedan market. The G8 was praised for its handling, thanks to the rear-wheel drive layout and independent suspension. Its sharp steering and balanced chassis provided a rewarding driving experience. The interior was spacious and comfortable, with premium materials and a well-appointed dashboard. Notable features included a six-speed automatic transmission, a Bose sound system, and a navigation system. However, its sporty performance came at a cost, as the G8's fuel economy was less impressive than its competitors. Despite its limited production run, the Pontiac G8 has earned a cult following for its blend of performance, luxury, and affordability, solidifying its place as a desirable and sought-after vehicle for enthusiasts.
