Meh. Aside from the new goat I don't really care for any of their offerings. Hopefully this won't affect Holden though.
I doubt it seeing as in Australia they only have Ford or Holden... and imports.. and they are as heavily spread out...
Pontiac G8 is Holden production. Holden is apparently in trouble anyhow, so loss of the 6 of these things they sell a month might hurt. I'd really like a G8 GXP, beat an M5 for less than 1/2 the price. The solstice GXP coupe would be a great track rat for midgets.
They're about the same 0-60 because of the V8s torque, but the M5's 500hp V10 is going to give it the edge on the highway. But yes, less than half the cost.
