The Infiniti G35 gets over 300 from a normally-aspirated 3.5. And it takes 6.0 liters to get 362 hp. Mercedes gets over 500 hp from just over 6 liters. You know all the switchgear will be cheap too. Pitiful attempt!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bernie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2007 5:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey dumb shit, its 261 / 194 @ 6300 rpm* from a 3.6l.

I am very excited about this car, looks tough and strong, accomodates an entire family and finally gives us a little taste of Holden.<br>Whats next?

But the switchgear and quality is fine according to those who sat in it on other websites.<br>The font of the writing looks kinda dumb, but that's acceptable if this car starts at $25,000. It better,<br>because there's nothing to suggest this is actually BETTER than the Chrysler 300!!  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Phil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2007 6:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hi Phil, I guess it's a bit late to reply (June 30) but what the hell, I looked at the Chrysler 300 before I bought the previous model to the VE Holden (what you know as the G8) and it isn't in the same class.  It looks and feels cheap and plastic.  I bought the high performance version of the Commodore and will be buying the latest model as soon as my current lease is up.<br>Have a look at what we in OZ are driving already  <a href="http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/action/modeloverview?modelid=4006" rel="nofollow">http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/action/modeloverview?modelid=4006</a><br><br>You won't belive how good it looks and drives.  The photos don't do it justice.  It's a pity they stuck on the bonnet scoops, fortunately we don't get them.<br><br>Save your pennies, you'll want one once you see them on the road!<br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[karlinoz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 29th 2007 1:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</guid><description><![CDATA[Great job by GM on bringing this one over, the car looks incredible and will definitely sell well. I can't wait to test drive one of these bad boys with the 6-speed and 6.0L V8. <br><br>Realistically I could own one of these when I'm done university, so I'm absolutely stoked. Keep up the good work GM, and keep building amazing vehicles!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Stealth E34]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2007 6:33PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</guid><description><![CDATA[Too bad the slotted brakes, wheels, and leather dash will not be production.  I hope they change the center stack controls also.  Although I've not seen them in person they look cheap and "Playskool-like".   Same as the new Tundra interior.  Otherwise a very nice car.  If the price is right, it should do very well.  Zeta looks like a winner. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[far jr]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2007 6:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/07/chicago-auto-show-gm-rwd-fans-can-rejoice-for-the-pontiac-g8-h/</guid><description><![CDATA[Great car, maybe GM should close all their north American plants and just keep shipping all it's cars from over seas.
