Why I Chose to Buy a Pontiac G8!

[@cesarmanana787]

I had a 13 genesis coupe 2.0T BK2 , once i paid it off at the dealership i worked at the time someone traded a 2016 Chevy SS & i jumped at the opportunity to get a nice rare V8 sedan , no regrets , going LSA on it soon too

[@1bad8]

thats dope man!

[@cgivens967]

What happened to the sound ?

[@jaydubb71]

G8 owner here in Maryland. Trying to scrape up funds for a turbo kit now. TSP cam, ZL1 converter, 3.27 Camaro rear, OBX headers/X-pipe, Magnaflow axlebacks with J-pipes, LS7 MAF, Vararam and self tuned. That parking lot looks like Roses in Ocean City. Lol

[@1bad8]

Sound good! Let me know how it goes. It was at the OC cars and coffee lol. I’m not that far from ocean city.

[@thealladin]

Nice man great seeing u upload love the vids as always. About to cam my g8 for my birthday can’t wait!!!!

[@1bad8]

Helll yeahh good luck 👍

[@thealladin]

@@1bad8 thanks man I’ll post a vid when I finish I’m going with a blp cam

[@gregoryrobinson1004]

The G8 caprice ss platform is great especailly if you want a family friendly full size fun car

[@flagcityparts]

In today's market, you can't touch a g8 under 18k to 25k unless it's got over 130k problems, etc I was lucky to find a 20k mile gxp on let go in 2017 for 19k and my gt at a cadillac dealer when I was shopping for a cts-v later that year I paid 15k with 40k miles do to it being a smoker car I've heavily modified it to a 408 harthrop supercharger and an waiting on a Holden clip to convert it to a hsv I've modified plenty of ppv caprice in different stages of cams, etc the parts are a wide range of vehicles from a camaro to a cts-v chevy ss if you ever need doors for a g8 look at wrecked 11-13 caprice there basically leftovers g8s I part out g8s.. find someone who specializes in fiberglass or carbon fiber and have them build a carbon fiber insert into your frt bumper with a curved piece of aluminum as a support the fiberglass will be molded as support from turn signals

[@Trillramos]

That’s crazy because I just bought a G8 Gt with a stage 1 cam in it already for 10k. 80k miles on it with no problems

[@frankbordonaro4949]

@@Trillramos woah when did u buy that? I dont see any g8 for 10k anywhere near 80k miles. Maybe 180k miles

[@pontiacmadeg8]

I bought my g8 14.5 with 48k miles rebuilt title but who cares

[@MrChickenwayne]

Would you recommend buying a 09 gt with 110k miles for $22k from a used car dealer?

[@flagcityparts]

@MrChickenwayne if you look around, you probably could find one on copart that someone has hit a dog with or light front end damage and rebuild it you could also find a 11-13 caprice ppv for around 8k and build it the way you want

[@christianc9793]

Picking up a 09 g8 6.0 fully loaded for 13k 149k miles

What time are those ?

[@dcr1545]

Funny seeing a Australian car with a American flag hanging out of it. Glad you love the VE SS Commodore mate.

[@1bad8]

well it does have American motor 😎 haha but ik what you mean

[@G8GTJav]

I know one dumb question that annoys me, "Is that a G6?". 😂. Bought mine in '09 and I got that question a lot over the years. No one ever knew what it was. Not so much any more. Now, I get a lot of thumbs up and guys eyeballin' my girl.

[@1bad8]

Facts! Lol

[@ImVloneD]

What are those rims i need them

[@dcr1545]

Your radio isn't working because the VE has problems with the wires coming loose behind it. Remove it and tighten the wiring and it will work again. You can watch videos on KZbin how to remove it and do so.

[@pateeldridge2965]

I got the same color as you. Mine is having issues right now too but couldnt see myself getting rid of it

[@tune1398]

What issues? Cause I’m thinking about buying a g8

Stock steering wheel for sale?

[@tune1398]

Are you swapping another L76 in?

[@joshuanegron3497]

What are the specs on your wheels? I’m in love with yours and I want them on my 2013 Caprice

[@1bad8]

20x10 rears 20x8.5 fronts I think -27 offset i kinda wanna sell them haha

[@donttrip3000]

I fell inlove the same way, tryna save up money

[@alexus2clutch]

What do you think chomps more? BTR or TSP?

[@thealladin]

Chop is altered in the tune. Don’t get a cam just for chop. Your car will drive like shit and you will have wasted your money. Pick according to what you will do with the car. I’m going with a blp shots fired cam.

[@alexus2clutch]

@@thealladin i wasnt aware of that, thank you for the info I appreciate it

[@thealladin]

@@alexus2clutch no prob man that was me literally like a month ago. Chop is life baby. If it ain’t got chop I don’t want it 😂😂😂

[@thealladin]

@@alexus2clutch btw whatever u do don’t get btr 😂 if u wanna sound fast get btr if u wanna be fast get blp or an rcr cam
