I would really like to keep it an american car... since dodge makes nothing of interest to me...

I know some of the audis are really nice too.

that car is made in asia i believe, its the sv6/ss/ssv commodore from holden rebadged as a chevy. you can buy the kit for the g8 too, but like someone else said i like the g8's better too, its more unique

The Chevy Lumina is made for the Middle East, but in the same factory as they make the G8's, and home grown Commodores.

Hey Chris, come down to my dealer and drive a AWD Fusion! We have a 2010 on the lot too and they changed the look, for the better IMO. However, right now, the Fusion sport only comes in a I4 unless ordered for 2010, but they look sweet with the blue suede and changing colors interior lights! (oh god I do sound like a saleswoman... shoot me!)

Mel, I may have to take you up on that... I want the sport, in black, , awd, the v6, and a 5 speed... but you cant help me out with the last one...

Drove a 2010 fusion sport at work today really nice car (think the sticker was 23 after rebates). The pervious model dosent hold a candel to the the 2010 such a nice car. 265 hp awd 6 speed suto w/ the autostick really nice ride. Or you could wait for the new 2010 SHO tarus 3.5 twin turbo w/ 350hp:nod:

BigAls87Z28 04-14-2009 11:23 PM

I thought the sport was ONLY the 3.5 V6?
Glad to see that they put a bit more power in the car this time around.

BigAls87Z28 04-15-2009 01:15 AM

BTW, for 2010, the G8 V6 will recieve Camaro's Direct Injected model along with its 6spd auto. Holden is shifting as much power to improve its gas milage numbers, so Pontiac will benifit.
Power numbers have not been released, nor MPG ratings, but they should be improved well over the current V6 model.
Expect 290-300hp rating and 27-28mpg.

the 2010 sport you can only get with the 3.5L the previous model I think it was only avail with the I4? At least all the ones Ive seen and driven last year were I4

Im not in sales, but my uncle is a salesman there. I can tell him what you're looking for and he can set you up. He's a funny man!

go Fusion Sport, the 2010 is very nice. G8 is sweet but Fusion Sport would make a great DD.
