2009 Pontiac G8 Review Summaries

What reviewers liked most about the Pontiac G8:

Clipped overhangs and sheetmetal that is sucked tight over the wheel arches and cabin give the G8 the crouched stance of a Teutonic high roller. The G8's skeleton is all-new and 100 percent Australian-developed.

-- Car and Driver

Handling, especially, is a strength for the G8; it can be hustled along twisty roads with a level of dynamic feedback and body control found in the best sport sedans from Germany.

-- The Car Connection

What reviewers liked least about the Pontiac G8:

No navigation function is offered through the Blaupunkt stereo, even though it seems designed for it.

-- Car and Driver

Pontiac G8 Comparisons:

The G8 matches the likes of the Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 on all points with a more sophisticated look and better performance.

-- The Car Connection

Best one-liner about the Pontiac G8:

It's the best thing to happen at Pontiac since KITT the gabby Trans Am.

-- Car and Driver

The G8 gives Pontiac real sport-sedan credentials and hits the mark with only minor faults.
