Busy weekend for seeing G8's around Cleveland. Saw an Ignition Orange GT last night on the West Shoreway heading into downtown. Saw a black GT with dark tinted windows at Reddstone on near west side. And I see a sweet blue GT right by my office at E49th & Lakeside.

Anyone of these belong to members on here?

I've seen the Ignition Orange GT in Bedford and Maplel Ht's. If you see a silver one with the Flag of Scotland...on both sides...it's me. John

Its hard as heck to believe but there are 3 black G8s within 1/2 mile of my house. There is my V6 and then there is a GT actually on my street about 5 houses down and then another GT on the street perpendicular to my street a 1/2 mile down in the Berea / Stronsville area. I can't believe it. other than the 3 I see daily I see about 1-2 other G8's a week.

So who drives the black GT with tinted windows? I've seen it at Reddstone twice now on the near west side... I need my windows tinted

Just saw this thread...that was me. PM sent and received. Stryker Blue Metallic is the official color. I'm surprised that you have seen that many G8's in the area. I'm all over Northeast Ohio and have seen a handful of G8's but not another GXP. Not surprising considering how few were made. Should see about 100+ G8's at the G8 National Meet...pretty awesome.

Saw a liquid red gt in Mayfield. Silver (not sure v6 or v8) also in Mayfield. Liquid red gxp in Gates Mills. Possibly same one on the freeway last year (I passed him but was too busy raging at the other traffic to wave). I've seen an orange one many mornings going north on 271. Also saw an orange one in Chardon V6.

I don't live in that area anymore so I'll have all new sightings from the Solon area!

Liquid red in Mayfield, one works at Best Buy and another one lives behind BoneYard. I saw the silver one last week and he didn't even look twice. The darker red one in Gates Mills, was it a woman? If so she works in Eastgate.

Like Solon YESTERDAY for the all Pontiac meet.:judge:

Haha I could have gone to that! The one in Gates Mills was liquid red gxp. I do recall seeing a woman driving a sport red but can't remember where/when. Might have been 271 Mayfield area.

Exesivefire, congrats on the Silver GXP. Just a blast to drive. I'm in the Brunswick, Medina area several times a month...we may see each other.
Walter, I can't believe I haven't seen your car on the road yet, as unique as it is. I thought I saw that you were at the National G8 Meet, correct? Don't remember seeing your car there either. Must be getting senile...

Saw a Liquid Red G8 base on Rt 2, Westbound, at 260th St. Lady had to be mid 70's. Gave her the thumbs up, she wouldn't even look over. Had to laugh...

I just got mine bout 2 months ago. I live by Youngstown Oh. Just got it outta the shop this week. The storm that came through 3 weeks ago sent a tree on top of my car. Talk about heart broken!!!! I saw it come down form inside the house. ran downstairs and about puked when i saw the tree on my car!! A friend of mine has a Stryker Blue and I was wanting to start a club for the area since ive seen about 10-15 different G8s since I purchased mine. If you live in the Y-Town area pm me and ill see if there is enough interest to start one. By the way I have an 08 Liquid Red. Tinted windows and I'm not sure what other mods are done because I bought it used.

I just bought my GT a month and a half ago from Pat O'Brien in Westlake. I live in Avon. Bone stock but plans-a-plenty. Will be going up to Norwalk a lot this summer, especially for Pontiac Nationals weekend. We could plan a get together for that? I'll have to keep my eye out for a date...

Saw a Black GT the other day when I was leaving the Dr. in North Royalton. Looked like it had wheels and exhaust on it.

Pontiac Car Show in Cleveland this Sunday:

I recently received a flyer from the North Coast Pontiac Club announcing that they are holding their annual Pontiac "Spring Dust Off" car show on Sunday, May 1, 2011 from 10 am to 3 pm.

The event will be held at:

Jay Pontiac-Buick-GMC
18800 Rockside Rd.
Bedford, OH 44146

Maybe some of the local G8 owners can meet up there that day?

Would be a blast, but I'm going to be out of town all day.

By the way John, I installed a Rotofab intake last week - holy crap, the sound & feel is like a different car

Just saw your thread on the Rotofab install. Glad it worked out well. Were you sucessful yet in getting the Superchips Roto download? I bet that will really make even more of a difference! Can't wait to see it. Anyway, we'll meet up at another show I'm sure. Have a great weekend!
