It’s not going to affect the rarity of your car. Pontiac is no longer in existence. It may impact the resale a little, but there probably isn’t a huge market of people looking for V8 4 door sedans given what fuel costs now. ---

Not exact numbers but from what I’ve heard I have 1 of maybe 12-15 one dealer said theres people out there trying to get the exact numbers but for some reason all that was found is the Paint color percentage of each g8 and how mnay cars were a certain color… Ignition Orange Metallic is the second least produced color to Stealth Blue… Sorry, But I dont really know how to put more then one quote into one post… ---

This is great news for you. In a few years when something stupid like tie rod end, a sway bar end link, or a wheel bearing calls it quits you wont be sending emails down under to find your parts. ---

Doesnt GM have to make parts for more then a few more years? I mean I understand its better as far as parts go. There will be a bigger market for performance parts and it’ll help bring down the price of the shit now, Because its crazy expensive. ---

I dont have a Hi Resolution pic of it… They were made for the 2010 camaro… there not exactly like the HSV Pentagons but they have alot of similarities… I think atleast… I understand some people have different taste and you might not like em but shit it doesnt mean there gaudy… Chrome seemed like my best bet didnt wanna do black because I dont like the Black Orange combo and didnt wanna do like a gunmetal or nothing cause theres chrome here and there on the car… Anyways this pic might be a little better? ---

This g8 is the same exact chassis and engine thats in a holden ute?? However, pontiac copied Holden yet your upset for them getting rid of it??? I can’t comprehend why, it’s like being upset if the 19th amendment were to be abolished.
