appletonrc 10-29-2007, 08:56 PM Can't really see much in the pics. Nice to get some press though.
Mike P 10-30-2007, 01:00 AM Looks sweet to me! I like that black stripe on the red color!

The stripe reminds me of the 97-98 Pontiac F1 Grand Prixs. I can't wait to see the entire car pics, curious on the rims they used.
need4spd 10-30-2007, 10:26 AM They did black out the trim around the twin kidney grills too
Aussie G8 10-30-2007, 02:51 PM Love the paint!

chiefpontiac 10-30-2007, 03:45 PM Wonderd how soon some yo-yo would ruin this vehicle with spining hubcaps. All we need now is a 3 ft wing.
need4spd 10-30-2007, 05:02 PM Wonderd how soon some yo-yo would ruin this vehicle with spining hubcaps. All we need now is a 3 ft wing.To do list:
3 ft wing - check -:pimp:
Spinners - check
22" dubs with rubber bands - check
Oh wait, what was that thud, I think the designers from down under all passed out ----
alexm963 10-30-2007, 05:54 PM so maybe a ls7 gxp is an option
Aussie G8 10-30-2007, 06:08 PM I like the look. It is a little too much for me but the paint looks good, and the tints. The rims a little too much but they don't look as bad as other ones I have seen.
PMD G8 10-30-2007, 06:36 PM Aussies do the exact same things to their Commodores. They especially love dropping them down and putting larger rims on them. I have a photo somewhere of a HSV GTS with 22's on it.

And a set of Kuhmo lavender scented tires http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Kumho&tireModel=Ecsta+DX+Aroma to lull the street competition into complacent second placement!

That doesn't look too bad. It still needs a smaller rim. I hate the rubber band on a rim look. :err:
tmoneyr007 10-31-2007, 07:32 AM Video of 50's G8.... man that dude can't talk

PMD G8 10-31-2007, 07:58 AM Aww, shoot, it's Fast Lane Daily and they got themselves an exclusive interview with some guy named "Fiddy" or "50" or something. And look, he's got himself a special-ed Pontiac G6. Err...that's Special Edition.
Uhm, ok. Sorry I didn't see the seat waving at me fiddy.
Yeah, he's a fawkin idiot....Na wa Imean?
Mike P 10-31-2007, 08:19 AM What did they do to make it have 555 horsepower? 50 cent said that's what it had for power.....

I would guess a 427 was shoved into it (the pic above)
I think this GTS looks alot better than the 50 G8 GT, just needs a good cleaning and waxing. Its supercharged as well.

Lichtronamo 10-31-2007, 09:41 AM The stripe on the car is probably the dealer installed accessory:

HUMBLER 10-31-2007, 09:48 AM /\ good catch, i thought the stripe might be more of an actual pontiac arrow which would have been cool but I assume the hint of one works as well, I think it should have stopped at the hood though.
I like the 50 car, very AMG, M lookin. but put more of a rim (max 20") like in the other pics above.
HUMBLER 10-31-2007, 09:57 AM Man, after seeing the video, I'll take it just the way it is. The rims look much better on camera and how bad do I want to roll up next to a M in that?

AMG/M looking???? They both add body panels/kits to their cars, the 50 GT is almost the same as the regular GT in appearance aside from the paint, stripe, and wheels. It has no body kit or lip spoilers on it.

The stripe on the dealer list is the one they offer in OZ. Its two thick matte/flat balck stripes that stop on the hood.

tmoneyr007: I see that now, I must have missed that picture of the motor the 1st time I looked at this thread.
That would be a nice motor to have! :hail:

Would it fit the G8 hood, which is different than the Commodore (hood scoops and all)? Its not like it would be THAT hard to have a G8 specific decal kit.

From the pics of the stripes it lines up with the hood sccops.

here's a clip of a blown GTS with 22's and a walkinshaw hood scoop.

Is the performance exhaust in the 2009 version going to be the same one that's supposed to be on the Camaro? I had read somewhere that the Camaro's exhaust would have a way to open up more for better flow when you put your foot into it.
Also, by "airbox" does that mean it will have a functional ram air type intake?
Thanks.

That supercharger sounds absolutely demonic.

That sounds awesome! To bad the wheels make it look like a Hot Wheels or Matchbox car. :err:

I think it would look better with some rims with a lip, but 22's fill the wheel well just right.
Cool_Hand_Luke 11-02-2007, 02:45 AM I wish we could get a LSX blocked 427.

And a usable one at that even after adding the two subs!
wortec1 11-03-2007, 05:41 PM I have been at SEMA all week and I must say the "50 cent" G8 was not that good up close..............It had poor paint work and the window tint was very cheap!!!!
The exhaust system was of a poor design and the end tips looked plain wrong.
The wheels were only 8.5 inch wide front and rear as opposed to the 9.5 inch rears that the HSV's run.
If this is the quality of work "50Cent" puts his name to he needs a new "PR" company.....
The G8 on the GM stand did look nice in its custom Gold/Orange paint and HSV rims...

I've posted this before but this is not surprising coming from Unique Autosports. There have been other posts on different car forums with photos displaying some of the ****ty work they do behind all of the panels and boxs.
PMD G8 11-08-2007, 10:57 AM Got this from the aussie forums
