  • Introducing Big Bad Orange!!! Pontiac G8 GT!

    Well, we sold my wife's Jeep about a month ago and were waiting to buy a family vehicle since we have a baby due in October. We looked at a Jeep Liberty with the sky slider rag top since she had liked those. It was SLOW but the sky slider was neat. We had talked about G8's as well but wanted to see one in Ignition Orange. Friday when I went by the Pontiac dealer, they had an orange one on the lot. I stopped and looked at it. Then Monday we went and test drove it. It was all over. It's a sweet color, bad ass looking car and with the 361HP L76 and 6 speed auto, it's FAST too. It's got all the options you can get, Premium package, which is leather and power heated front seats. Sport package, which is 19" wheels with summer only 245/40/19 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A's(same brand/model as I put on the 18's on my SS), metallic pedal covers and sport leather wrapped steering wheel. It also has the power sunroof. We're still figuring out all the toys on it. It's got a TON of rear seat legroom even with the seats way back and the trunk is huge as well! Anyways...here's the pics.

            Orange actually! LOL! Her Jeep Wrangler was orange as well, but it wasn't metallic.
