Yep, if I don't buy a G8 (so far so good), I'm getting the mid-level Camaro too. Ordering the first day possible.

I'm not trying to hi jack this thread or anything, but while we are on the topic of the G8 GT - how does it compare to the 2005-2008 Mustang GT?

And cue the spanking of the Charger:

http://www.edmunds.com/apps/vdpconta...3/pageNumber=1

The G8 GT completely annihilates the Charger RT in virtually every way, and here you can see how the G8 GT almost keeps pace with the Charger STR8 Super Bee. Now close your eyes, and imagine 40 more hp in the form of GXP....

So is this like car insurance but for you as a driver? If you get a ticket they will pay it for you AND pay your increased premiums for auto insurance?

I don't speed*, but I don't understand what service they are selling at a monthly charge.

























*yet...

The Charger looks just like a truck if you see that gigantic plus sign grille in your rearview mirror.

But with the Pontiac you see two classic nostrils on the monster that is about to overtake you.
