Its true the Impala is a big seller, it wouldnt be good for bizz to kill it off.


However, the G8 imo is one of the best rounded vehicles GM makes. It is odd that it hasnt sold better.


Personally, id say diesel should be an immediate concern for the future of GM products, including a ''future G8''. Diesel runs cleaner, cheaper and with great response to aftermarket like turbo's. BMW is coming out with their first 3-series diesel, im hoping GM gets on that bandwagon.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
