I just realized why this car failed to sell more...they say "introducing the first ever Pontiac G8 GT". They don't even mention the fact that there's a 6 cylinder version...something that people would have wanted more when gas prices were high.

It could be that...but I think it's more the fact that no one ever saw this kick-ass commercial.

That's for the 2008 G8 GT (not that there's much difference). Maybe if they had played it more than twice the car would have gotten noticed.

Awesome commercial. It's such a shame that this car and marketing campaign came out too late...
