Went into the local Pontiac dealer today and walked by this car in the show room and finally after some time noticed what it was--a G8. Black with grey leather interior. May just be me, but I am in no way impressed. Didn't grab my attention like the GTP did; sat in it even and was even less impressed. View over the hood is enormous. Dash display was even frumpy but what really turned me off were two things. One, to get a sunroof demanded a preferred option package which included the leather, heated seats etc. for almost $6,000.00! And the price then for just the six was almost $38K Canadian.
At that price it is a definite no go when my lease is up.
Inquired too about the lack of leasing after this month; was told buying rates and low interest would make payments relatively the same except that they'd be for longer periods of time and you'd own the car not GM. The advantage of a lease was that one could get into a new model every four years.
Will depend on what the other manufacturers are doing and offering when my lease is up.
