you'll probably regret it later on, when your neighbor gets a Camaro...

Just depends on what you want.

I hear ya on the space..my two biggest gripes on the Camaro--no head room and I am only 6', and no usable back seat. The G8 fixes both.

Looks are either way, the G8 isn't gonna get the attention though.

Performance..well its a toss up between the V8s. My G8 GT went 13.1 with CAI and Tune. GXP is a nice choice if you want an LS3 and an auto.

I have a GXP and absolutely love it. A friend at work has a GT and there is a very big difference in performance and handling/ride between the two. The GXP is really an exceptional car.

I drive mine daily and while I usually change cars every year or so, I am still very happy with the GXP.

My sister got a 2SS RS Camaro last fall and it is very nice. I like the styling but it is a very tight fit for me, and the lack of room makes it difficult to have as an only car. I wish I could afford both, but unfortunately life is full of compromises.

I am still mulling over getting a 2SS next fall, but it will be very difficult to part with the GXP.

I'm 6'4, I just tooled around until I found the perfect settings for the seat, mirror, etc and have NO trouble at all..Of course, I DO duck a little while getting out, like I've done with every OTHER car/truck I had...

G8 will definitely satisfy any need for speed you might have also... Gonna be alot quicker than your LS, and much better equipped.

If this seems like the better way to go, then POST PICS

Does your camaro have a sunroof? I know from talking to a few dealer the sunroof loses you a good 3" . I know I am 6' and have no headroom problems in mine.

Everyone keeps acting like the the G8 GT would be a step down in performance.

The G8 GT is a step up in performance (straight line performance) compared to the V6 Camaro.

As much as I love the 2010 Camaro, if I had a couple small kids I'd most likely have a G8 GT or G8 GXP right now.
