  • damn you GM for killing this car...

  • I want 1 so bad!

  • This guy knows what a real car is!

  • @extremepsychogamer , no actually it is not where do you guys think the 6.2L V8 came from? The Corvette people, where do you think all this technology is from in these cars..................

  • Nice car --- but you should hold off on the comparisons to other cars.Even though we can all see your bias is caused by the person buttering your bread.

    The Mustang with the 5 liter can easily keep up if not beat this car --- and don't even compare the quality of a BMW or a Mercedes AMG . they are both faster .

    This was a great car for the money --- but easily replaced by the new Camaro

    .The upcoming Z-28 should be a good car unless GM over -prices it into Corvette territory .

  • @millwrightman99 i dont see how that works, theyre all barely under 400 hp

  • @millwrightman99 the amg and bmw are not faster than the g8 gxp...0-60 in 4.6 402 hp....and a very light curb weight....you might want to do some research. Quality yes..the mercedes and bmw have it beat...that's german engineering for you...INCREDIBLE...but they're not as fast. this car ..with a few bolt ons is a high low to mid 10s car all day...stage 3 injectors..exhaust and procharger...and about a quarter of the money

  • make this car a coupe and lower the weight and it would be a car that no one would wanna race.

  • Still almost the same as HSV Clubsport R8

  • why does this retard say AMG needs more money under the hood when the amg 6.2 engines make nearly 100 more hp? both are the same size but the mercedes engines have way more power. also the e63 will take a shit on this car, as well as the m5, the rs6, the c63, or even the lexus isf. i could go out and buy a used e55 amg for the same cost with 497hp and it would rape this car. im not saying i dont like the g8, im just saying dont pick fights you cant win

  • @jcv0606 b/c you fvking idiot....AMGs cost nearly twice as much as the GXP did....and only was a bit faster. Sames goes for the M5, e63, and all the other foreign cars you love to jerk off to.....I will pick fights with you right now, because I own a G8 GT...you can link to my profile and see it. Just installed a Magnacharger and am now running 500+ to the rear wheel, not including other mods....fvck AMGs or any other foreign car...

  • @cmgww MY MAN!!! THAT IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT!!!

  • @cmgww Any other foreign car eh? Do you have any idea what you're really driving? I wouldnt be so quick to bash " foreign cars" if i were you. You're driving one, mate :) Yes i know holden is GM and the various parts come from all over the place but brass tacks here, bud. If it wasnt for a few " foreigners" At the Melbourne HQ , this car would not exist.

    Built and designed by " foreigners" in a " foreign" country. Fyi, the Zeta platform, also designed and built in Australia. Look it up.

  • pontiac went out of business.. why would u want this?!/1

  • @kurtnesass because they stopped production! thats exactly why i want it, and they didnt go out of business fucktard. they were disconinued by that shit box called gm that you just spent half your pay check bailing out, and right after they laid off everyone who was making more than minimum wage to save even more money.

  • @kurtnesass Its going to come back as a Chevy Caprice. That is sold in the Middle East. Same car

  • God bless america:)

  • one of the next best parts of the gxp...... FUCK NO!! THEY KILLED stick shift is WAY!! better

  • This car is cheap for the money, but don't say that it can compete with a Mercedes, mabe a V6 Mercedes. The new M45 Infiniti can beat this car easy.

  • @peter21d you are a true idiot if you really think that....402 hp with no bolt ons.....this 6.2 ls3 is incredible....

  • This guy sells cars, and he said that the G8 GXP could beat an AMG....

    I don't even know how to respond to that

  • Damn thanx Aussies for da vauxhall vxr8 obviously da American edition, I still like da vauxhall alot more just the way tha supercharger sounds when ur gunning it down the road....

  • Im from Australia and as everyone should now know this is an Australian commodore rebadged... Its a good simple car but definetly not a great car !

  • Best Pontiac ever...and I don't care it was an Australian car. Won't see any more Aussie cars now the US dollar isn't worth crap.

  • Yea the gxp will surely get @ an srt8, especially the charger. That charger is heavier and has less hp! But when u matching cars up like that, especially with so much power then it depends on the driver. And like dude said in the video, u can compare it to these other cars like the benz and bmw because of the power and performance for the PRICE!!

  • Hey guys, it's NOT really a Pontiac, It's a rebadged Holden VE Commodore with Corvette engine.

    Those aussies really know how to create a good car.

    Thought you guys knew that?

    And not to forget Ford Australia

    @nsspartan77 Ford also have this Falcon XR6 and 8 RWD, which is a really sweet car, these are also supposed to come out with a boss verison of the engine, but these cars won't be launched outside of Australia, too expensive one said...

    My opinion is RWD or 4WD which = More fun

  • @spectrospirit Um...you are correct that it is a re-badged Holden, but you fail to include the fact that Holden is a GM subsidiary and has been owned by GM since the 1930s...The platform the car is based on is the same as the Camaro (Zeta), and the engine is ALL GM...It's no different than a GMC Terrain/Chevy Equinox, same underpinnings, just different exteriors.

  • @cmgww every car company with any mass shares platforms

  • I wish they made a factory supercharged 6.2L version just like the CTS-V... too bad it never made it that far : [

  • Lame. Subaru is haf the price just as fast and all wheel drive.

  • damn i want

  • hey what is this in holden? the maloo?

  • this guy is on crack

    compare it to an E60  ///M5

    The ///M5 will kick this cars ass

  • i think i just jizzed in my pants

  • 13 miles to the gallon :(

  • a six speed mannal is avabile

  • Definitely so!

  • @macktenful I heard that it only came with a automatic

  • ha ha v6 can beat mustang haha true.

  • I love this car but the MPG is a killer. Only buy this car for the weekends, not for everyday use. For everyday use buy a Honda. I would certainly buy this car for cruising reasons only due to being so good looking and fast. The camaro is cool too, but I have kids and somtimes i would need to transport them.

  • @ehcivicracer This is why I went for the GT instead of the GXP. The GT gets damn good mileage for a 6 liter V8.

  • Lol i like this guy..keep it real man put ur money under the hood then come fuck wit a g8 lol

  • My brother has G8 model of this with a Roda Flow cold air intake which makes up to 415 hp

  • this guys a hell of a salesman there never gettin rid of this guy

  • this is a piece of shit...?

    my budd jarret and i raced and tugg aopped with a 3 1/2 inch rope and he was using ur shitty g8 gxp and i had my cold air intake, supercharged ford gt 500 cobra and i smoked him hard.... i pulled him13 meres.... this is a faggot of a car

  • I think i just jizzed myself. 0__0

  • Im looking into a new car, cant decide between this or a charger.

  • i'm huge ford guy and own a mustang bullitt so you know i'm not a fan of GM, but damn they make some sick ass engines, other than the new 5.0, ford needs to take some notes. I love my 4.6 but these bad boys are sick

  • What people fail to realize when they compare this car to german cars is that G8 is based on a BMW 5-series. It's a poor man's M5. But don't get me wrong, I like the car and I wouldn't mind owning one, even a GT version.

  • im planing to get g8 when im 99 gp gt starts falling apart

  • aussie muscle!

  • @robertsautoplaza Unfortunately that new caprice is ass over face ugly. Shouldn't have dumped the G8's style and just tossed a chevy badge on there.

  • wow, this guy is a douche... it's a good car, but come on...

  • Not really. The ford Taurus, dodge charger, and the chevy impala are too, along with the tahoe

  • @Danboy5050 no prolly not guy my SS silverado 6.0 ate up that jeep srt8 so i doubt very much it would even compare to this car!!!!

  • this car is hard i LOVE the part where he goes ya mustang gt our V6 will beat you hahahahahahaha priceless GXP all day!!!

  • An srt8 will lose in corners when its compared to this car and the srt8s 0-60 time isnt that much better

  • the lets go for the G8 50 edition with the LS7 and 500 HP stiil much cheaper than an AMG or BMW.... think about it.

  • omfg 6.2 L??!!?

  • Pontiac was giving the dealers $7000 to take the remaining inventory off their hands.

  • It was $5000 and none of the G8 GXP was sold like that, I seen a used one with 4000 miles last week sell for more than sticker used! This is a cult classic and till you drive it you wouldn't understand.

  • @robertsautoplaza Oh I don't doubt it is but i'd rather own a car I can work on myself. The G8 is actually a Holden Commodore, a real beast of a car. Look up Austrailian V8 supercars. Good luck on the sale.

  • i drive a 2000 bonnevile 3.8 and i ould only imagie hopin in the ge gxp love it

  • i understand i drive a 2000 bonneville and i could only imagine hoppin in the g8 gxp. i still rather have my bonneville gxp lol no offence

  • Australian

  • love the car, love the engine, but the G8 GT firehawk is the badest G8 out there

  • in saudi arabia we have it as chevrolet lumina ss with only 6.0 v8

  • Whats the difference between gxp and gt?

  • engines, the 6.0L is the GT and the GXP is the 6.2L

  • @robertsautoplaza can you guys send them to texas

  • NO if u push it to the right its in sport shift mode when u push up then it goes into manual

  • Yo man how come you didn't buy it? Sounds you like you just LOVE it. Great Car.

  • australian made

  • @reecedownie This has been pointed out so many times, its not even funny. I dont give a shit where its from, I'm glad its under GM. (Holden is GM so you know...)

  • @sandmanatlc So... maybe you know why these cars isn't in Europe except from UK?

    Is it because of the EU in itself?

    I want these cars and also the UTE, do i really have to resort to import because GM being selfish?

    This must be a big joke, i need answers...

  • australian made and proud of it.GO HOLDEN

  • australian made

  • @Danboy5050 hey bud there is a review online about the g8 gt 6litre which is very close to the dodge charger 6.1litre. so this would eat it for breakfast

  • i want it !!! lol

  • Is It Sold yet ???

    and is there new price

  • Yes, I wish it wasn't.

  • Thanx Dude

  • This guy is on drugs, an E55/E63 AMG will spit this car on the ground. I like the GXP and it deserves all the credit its getting, but lets be realistic. This car wont make it past a SRT8, M3, C63, ISF or a RS4 without a shit load of trouble and he's talking about M5's and E63's LMFAO!!!!

  • @jcsrt8 Hey man you are stupid; you can mod this G8 with big camshafts, twin turbos or a supercharger and it's goodbye Ferrari and your talking about all this and that about German stuff.

  • @BarneyBenar You are right on the money, barney!!! Very easily modded engine, the 6.2L V8 is the same engine as the C6 Corvette, aftermarket is plentiful with great support of options!

  • 3:57 HAHA burn

  • I thought that was funny too!

  • @combine68 same numbers as the 06 GTO 0-60 just for the family guy with mid-life issues

  • YES!! A dealer Who Knows their Pontiac!

    Bring It!~haha

    Rip Thou :(

  • "my v6 will beat ya lol"

  • Yeah, it's cheaper than the compentition, but does it cost less to maintain and is it going to last as long?

  • Much cheaper than the comp in terms of upkeep, cheaper oil changes and parts as well.

  • @jimini34 It will outlast any car out there, just as reliable as a toyota corolla. The G8 , is a VE Holden Commodore which we call in Australia. They are the most popular car, because they look fuckin awsome, go hard, and parts are cheap and easy to come by. The G8 is like our standard version, Check out our VE Clubsport range. You will cream yourselfs and will want them in america. Better Again!!!

  • damn i love that muscle i use to gave a 05 gtp

  • wow just when pontiacs quality is getting better and finally makes a GOOD car besides the firebird gm shit cans the brand figures

  • my kia can beat a mustang gt

  • Great car.

    In Australia for AU$75,000 we have the evil big twin of this thing with 626 HP.

    youtubeDOTcom/watch?v=yA-11m7Y­Fyg

    See if you can special order one of those!

  • @WilltechOnline

    doesn't Australia get the Chevy ss

  • I would put money on that. I had a saturn Aura that would beat a mustang GT

  • 415HP? Wow, just wow.

  • Pontiac knows how to make a car.

  • i like the dude in this vid

  • I don't lol.

  • wow did that say 13 mpg? if gas was alcohol, it'd have alcohol poisoning. That means... the car is fucking sick!

  • hahahahaha ill put my 550i up agianst this and will shit on this thing in every way possible lol

  • While I like BMWs, that 550 will cost 10 to 15 thousand more than the GXP, which I can use to upgrade it's performance and roast the 550i. Next, you are some 20 yrs old, prove you own one!!!

  • If the GXP can beat an M5 what the hell makes you think you could beat it?

  • smitty, Seeing as this G8 GXP has 55 more horsepower than your car AND 55 lbs more torque your already behind, but that's all before we consider that your running a 4.8 liter V8 and this is running a 6.2 liter V8 which pretty much eliminates those numbers because just 2 v8's with that piston size difference already screw's you. In the end: you talk shit about the GXP and learn that not only the GXP but the GT of the G8 fuck your car up so bad you should be happy the cops took it. happy walking

  • forgot to tell ya. you have 55 hp and tq less then me... and! you have to rev to 6300 to get that power where as i only have to go to 5300... and you car is much more lbs to it.

  • yeh laugh all you want but your only a dumb fuck if you think a 550 can even hang with a standard g8 let along gxp. some fuckers have high hopes.

  • This car is going to be a collects item. AS SOON as I get my new job next year Im saving up to buy one on the used cars market. One of the best cars in the last 10 years. PERIOD.

  • I LOVE AMERICAN CARS But this monster G8 GXP is a special model. i would love to buy this car but shit i live in New York City and Insurence company will just eat me up as a whole. I HATE city guys enjoy your little towns, City Blows

  • i dont want to be a know it all, but its an aussie car imported to america, and we import them to the uk as vauxhall. they are originally Holden Commodore's, the V8's come standard with a 6l chevvy or parformancy 6.2l v8

  • U R RIGHT ABOUT MERCEDES

  • i like this guy

  • what the is wrong with you all man!!! mustang v6 mustang gt" plz get a real car dude!!!

  • this guy is funny

  • lol this dood in this video is hilaious! especially near the end! LMAO, awesome!

  • lol "Mustang GT, my V6 can beat ya guys, no offense" ahahhahahh i like this dude

  • hell no u fucking dum..and gt mustang are slow ass shit.. no offense!

  • no it cant

  • @camaro88iroc ok so your name is camaro88iroc but you drive a mustang, a little contradicting you think

  • No offense taken, lol, but your mustang GT V8 couldn't beat this car with 5 car lead, no offense or anything

  • @robertsautoplaza wtf are u talkin bout' i dont own a shitstang, i was quoting someone dumbass. someone said their v6 could beat the mustang gt

  • This is a beautiful car....the things I would do to it if I ever got my hands on one, 415 hp pure bred horses....my oh my

  • This is a beautiful car, and that engine, damn...the things I would do to that car...415 pure bred horse, my oh my

  • better grab a g8 gxp or gt cuz there all gonna be rare

  • yea my dad just bought a red G8 GT

  • I am not sure but G8 still gonna be around in Australia. G8's are really design in Australia. So we can always buy one for Australia.

  • In Australia we call them hsv (holden special vehicles) and they will be around for a lot longer.

  • man, this guy could sell a pair of track shoes to a paraplegic... lolol

    this guy is cool! haha

  • if only i wasn't a poor 19-year college student, I would buy this car without any doubts, except in 6-speed manual though. Too bad GM is killing Pontiac, RIP. When I can afford this after school is will problably be a collector item, DAMNIT.

  • i feel the same way man

  • This car will be a collector's item 25 years from now... for whoever is smart enough to buy one before GM kills Pontiac. If I was a responsible working about making money instead of a poor 19 year old college student, I would buy one without any doubt. This car is fucking sweet. Except I would problably get it with 6-speed manual.

  • i like the new G8 american muscle mixed with aussi looks, i have one question though, is the GXP only available with manual trans or can you still chose the tapshift? my srt8 is autostick and to behonest i find it more acurate than manual (i used to have a mustang cobra manual) i know the g8 gt is tapshift but id sure like the gxp with a tapshift too.

  • Where you a sleep when he showed the trans in the video?

  • gxp comes in either manual or automatic...so yea you can get exactly what he shows in the video.

  • stock?

  • "ford.... my v6 can beat ya" owned!!!

  • i believe that car is a Commodore. maufactured in AUSTRALIA

  • @djp4nfa

    Yes the G8 is basically the Commodore you see in AUS made by Holden. It uses the same Zeta platform. The only real difference is some body panels are designed different and the G8's uses GM LS series engines. Other then that...its the same car.

  • just bought the gt v8 run soo great !

  • this video is so true

  • Thanks, appreciate it!

  • how much????????

  • $40,960 is sticker but with rebates it can be priced well below $40K

  • So you take sticker of $40,960 minus rebate of ??? to give you a price of.........its really not that hard.
