    Re: Official G8 thread

    how do we know that is an official GM ad? I didn't see any of the usual lawyer stuff at the end of it.

    btw, here is the 1st ever g8 0-60 vid on youtube.

        1:12 of the video has the usual lawyer stuff.

        It's posted on youtube by "Pontiaciscar".

        If it isn't a direct pontiac ad, it's certainly a very good mockup.

              360hp in 13.12 being modified?

              There was LS1 Trans Ams and Camaro SS's doing high 12's stock with 300hp.

                But the G8 is almost 4000 lbs.

                  Re: Official G8 thread

                  Trans Ams were nearly 3600lbs, so there's only a few hundred pounds difference.

                    Every extra hundred pounds means 1/10 of a second in the quarter mile so if the G8 does low thirteens then Camaros and Trans Ams with the LS1 would dip into the twelves given the weight difference.

                      Yup, and the G8 has slightly more power. I think we'll see G8 GT's in the lower 13's quite often, and GXP's in mid to high 12s.
