It might... at almost half the price

At half the price who cares if it beats an M5, how many G8 buyers are roaming the streets looking for high $$$$ performance cars to race. Sorry.... your looking at the wrong market segment.

I am a GM fan but they just can't come out with that Grand Prix in enough models can they?
How many differant names and engines are they going to put into that body style?
They keep comming out with new models but they are the same body style with a little change here and there, the Impala, GTO, G6, G8, and Grand Prix are the same body style, to me it is getting old.
While Ford Dodge have come out with some cool cars GM just keeps introducing the Grand Prix.

The Grand Prix is done at the end of this year.

I haven't cared for Dodges recent trend in regards to design (wich exception of the challenger).

I'll take one please.

Slick, you can keep your Mustang. I liked them when they first came out but after seeing them on the road for two weeks, I got bored with them. They just don't have that pop to em.

Yeah, looks like a grand am/grandprix. Not much different. Dont care for pontiacs either, BUT if they came out with a retro Bandit edition trans am i might be interested. I had a couple of camaros in the 80's and 90's. But the new Camaro isnt working for me. I think the Mustang and the Challenger are probably the coolest "muscle" cars out right now.

Ford has nice stuff? Have you looked at the fusion and five hundred? Those things are hideous, identical to each other, and cheap looking. A pontiac should look like a pontiac. The g6 is kind of ugly, but the g8 looks awesome. I prefer that to the 300 any day.
