Pontiac G8

The Pontiac G8 was a short-lived performance sedan sold for the 2008 and 2009 model years. Based on the Australian Holden VE Commodore, it was GM's final attempt to bring a rear-wheel-drive sedan to the Pontiac lineup. It offered a base V6, a GT model with a 361-hp 6.0L V8, and the top-tier GXP with a 415-hp 6.2L LS3 V8 shared with the C6 Corvette.
Collectors prize the G8 for its muscle car credentials in a practical four-door package. The GXP is the most desirable, especially the rare versions equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission. Its limited 2-year production run, cut short by GM's bankruptcy and the end of Pontiac, makes it a unique piece of modern automotive history. While the average sale price sits around $22,000, exceptional GXP models command significantly higher prices, proving the car's lasting appeal.
Buying Tips
- Check the front suspension for failing strut top mounts and radius rod bushings, which are common wear items.
- On GT models, listen for valvetrain noise that could indicate a failure of the Active Fuel Management (AFM) system's lifters.
- Inspect the interior for a sagging headliner and worn driver's seat bolsters, which are frequent cosmetic issues.
- Look for peeling clear coat, especially on the rear spoiler and B-pillars.
