Another Holden Piece of Rubbish: I was the unfortunate owner of a VXR8 and from the day of purchase from Holden as a custom order, 80k AUD purchase price, 4 years of amazing design defects, 4 motors, and traveled 40K in 4 years. nearly 2 years of hire cars from holden and AVIS. Problems from Paint, trim, engine, brakes, camber rear, shifter hitting dashboard, gearbox, diff seals, squeeky dash, front and rear bars not aligned bla. Good Looking car, mechanically SHi&. Never Never again. BEWARE!
Was watching these race (The Holden Conmmodore ute/Pontiac G8 sports truck) in the V8 Aussie Utes series as support for the V8 Supercars just before. One of these won the race.
@wellshii Ever driven something that's about 500 pounds lighter in the rear than a sedan? Suspension-wise, the concede little to the sedan, but if you got enthusiastic with the throttle, you'd soon find out what that that difference is. This car's ancestor currently holds the Guinness world record for "World's fastest ute," of pickup as Americans call them.

The dumbest thing GM ever did was killing Pontiac!
Pontiac outsold Buick in the US 2008-2009 that’s a fact.

Calm down pal, GM didn't even know the specs of the GXP in April of 2008.

The "G8-ST" should be slightly lighter than the sedan.
Great for drifting.
