Well, I finally got rid of the Saturn and got something more my style. Because of the twins, something small just wasn't going to cut it any more.

Pontiac G8 GT
Black
Red/Onyx leather
6.0L engine
361hp/380tq

First one goes on tonight! Going to replace the intake hoses with smooth ones and get rid of that "air silencer box". Also going to make sure that only cold air is getting to the engine.

They sell a true CAI for something like $300. After looking at it last night, I can make one for $15.

FYI - there's a cam for this car that retains the Displacement On Demand that makes over 400rwhp and 380rwtq! The whole cam swap package sells for $700. I may actually put a cam into my DD before putting one into my race car. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Nice!

I want one. They have an 09 at the local dealer in the new blue. They call it Striker Blue I think instead of the 08 Stealth Blue. It's a much nicer color than the old blue in my opinion. Kinda reminds me of the 02 Z06 Electron Blue.

Sweet car.

Go get it now! The Employee Pricing can't be beat. They took $3000+ off MSRP. It was even $1300 below my Supplier Pricing that I get through work.

I walked out the door with that car for $29,446.70.

No joke - it'll be a bit more expensive, but it'll have more HP and the manual. That'll be fun!
