    base models are slooooooooow. I mean they're nice cars and look awesome, but if you want some umph deff get a GT version, or better, a GXP :P I drove some G8 GT at work and man i spun the tires so easily like a fool. Love the car tho.

    if he were to get a gto now would you get a 5.7 or the 6.0 i know obvioulsy the ls2 makes more power but the 350 you can get so many parts cheap for it
