The G8 is a very interesting car to me. I've had quite a few Corvettes including an LS3 (I currently have an 09 Z06). I had two LS2 Corvettes and was blown away by how much better the LS3 was. Definitely a plus for the G8.

But my problem with the G8 is that they have hog-tied it by building it in Australia and shipping them over. They made compromises by not offering quite a bit of equipment that is actually available on the Manaro - they do not offer Navigation, full power seats, memory, homelink etc, and the interiors are all black (or black with a little bit of red).

Why they can't build the car in the U.S. and offer a full list of options and colors is beyond me. They could have made it a true competitor to the Acura TL, Infiniti G35, Chrylser 300 etc. But what they decided to do instead is make it a four door competitor to the Mustang and upcoming Camaro.
