RonBuick, I have a 2009 Pontiac G8 GT in Pacific Slate (blue). Typical fuel use 24mpg even in stop-go-crawl DC/Virginia traffic. Managed 32mpg on open highway no traffic going to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia. Also proud owner of a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP....supercharged 3.8L L67 descendent of Grand National GNX.

Small world. My family are all around Idaho.

Love my G8!

I got a grey 09GT with sport, sunroof and premium pkg new in April. I love the car! Ran 13.90 hot off the street at Norwalk, if I would have cooled it off and launched it a little better I'm sure it would've gone 13.70's baby seat and all It crushed my buddies 01 Cobra on the street.

Getting 18.5mpg avg and I obviously don't have a light foot I paid $26,650 with incentives which is freakin CHEAP for a new car of this caliber! I plan to modify this one pretty good just haven't decided which direction to go with it yet. I have 7k mile on it already and have no complaints. Sunroof creaked but went away with the warmer weather.

Wow, that is a great deal. Can you PM me with the details of your car ie; msrp and what those incentives are? If I could get a deal like that I'ld go for it.

MSRP was $34,110 I believe. I don't know what all the deals were at the time but I don't think you can get all the same deal now. I went to my buddy who is a salesman in Feb and told him I wanted one. He told me to wait and he would call when the time was right. He called in April and I went and picked the car up. If I could've found someone with a GMS# to use it would've been another $1000 cheaper. I got supplier pricing though which they will give to just about anyone. There was dealer cash and $5000 in rebates from GM at the time if I recall. I do believe you can still get them for under $30k which I would still buy one if I were in the market.
