So I went ahead and did it...

[terrancew3]

I bought a G8 GXP. Don't regret it either.

[Bumzag]

*dang*... I doubt you ever will regret it. Can you throw in some more info? Mileage, condition, price. Tbh, I've never seen a G8 GXP

[terrancew3]

It has 26,000 miles on it, and is in pretty much almost brand new condition. Carfax said there was 2 owners, and a front end collision with an animal in summer of 2010. Accident free since then though. I bought it for $33,000 after tax, title, license, etc.

[terrancew3]

A person on a group on Facebook asked me for the VIN so he could get me some cool info on the car. This is what he came up with "Your car is #418 of the 1829 GXP's produced & it was built on 11/13/2008. It is also #9 of only 21 built in that configuration (#9 of only 12 built like that with Potenza tires). It was originally invoiced to & delivered by Graff Pontiac Chevrolet in Durand, MI on 6/05/2009 to a GM Employee or their family."

[Bumzag]

That thing is a beaut'. I wish you a long, accident/issue free ownership.

[RJolly87]

Wow, these things are holding their value better than the SS it seems like.

Great work, it looks great, more pics please!

[CMNTMXR57]

I hate you, but congrats...

[terrancew3]

Well its raining here today, so a photoshoot would suck. But tomorrow I am going on a cruise with a bunch of other Pontiac guys. I'll surely be snapping pictures tomorrow of the beauty.

That's how new cars work. The SS is subject to manufacturer's and financing incentives for new cars. The G8 GXP has its own market.

Awesome car, so jealous. I wish I wasn't getting rid of my GT...

[CMNTMXR57]

Also, you can still go buy a NEW SS. You can't buy a NEW G8 GXP or ANY Pontiac. That in and of itself drives up the price.

[terrancew3]

I'll have a bunch of pictures from the meet up sometime soon. I just might post some video of a guys GTO laying some rubber on some back roads, errrr. I mean closed coarse.

[1oldman]

That is one beautiful automobile. Wish I could get one - ha ha ha. Congratulations! Anxiously waiting for your photo shoot of the car. - BC

[nos4blood70]

So *dang* jealous!

[terrancew3]

I will post another thread of the cruise we had. There will be a good chunk of pictures.

[Sirius]

I don't regret buying mine either. Nice work!

...I wish I wasn't getting rid of my GT...

What are you saying here, Ed? Did I miss something?

[00Beast]

Yeah, I'm trading the G8 for something bigger, with a third row and 4/AWD. No, I'm not having kids, just getting paid to haul people around, and my parents are getting tired of me using their Suburban for it. I'll throw up pics once the deal is done (still trying to find the right replacement).

Honda Odyssey AWD. That's your huckleberry.

Yep, been doing Uber for a couple of months.

*shutter* I'm kinda going in the opposite direction:



Anyways, we can go back to talking about Terrance's new-to-him GXP again.

[CMNTMXR57]

Amazingly, at the Indian Uprising, I counted 4 G8 GXP's...
