Hello G8 Family!
After purchasing the car from this website, I feel it's only right that I first post it here to see if anyone is interested. I adore this car in so many ways that I cannot explain. I can't even believe I'm considering this, but I have a garage queen. When I first got it nearly 5 years ago, it was my primary transportation and I put about 5k miles on it in the first year. Since then, I purchased a commuter and have only put about 1k on it each year. I still enjoy driving it quite a lot, there is simply nothing like the experience, but I don't drive it as much as I want to. Featured in LSX Magazine. It was originally owned by Livernois, where it's build was fully documented. It was the testbed for their LS3 mini-stroker block. These are no longer available, and to my knowledge this is a completely bespoke engine as I have not seen or heard of another one being installed in any other car. It runs great and has been very reliable.
