Used Pontiac G8 for Sale near Wasilla, AK

a bold entry in the midsize performance sedan category. Designed as a rebranded Holden Commodore from Australia, it brought a unique combination of style, performance, and affordability to the American market.

The Pontiac G8 is a GREAT car for those that need something for the family, but don't want to give up their fun car. This car has tons of space on the inside, is extremely comfortable for both short and long trips and is relatively quiet for what it is. At the same time, the L76 (in GT trim) and LS3 (in GXP trim) are rip-roaring power plants that can get the car going in a very short time (my GT will do 0-60 in less than 5 seconds). And, it's not just straight-line performance. The car handles great in the turns, especially considering how big this car is. As with any car, there are a few issues that have come up with the G8 over time, but nothing major or hugely expensive. The G8 has proven itself to be a really reliable car. My own G8 (a 2009 Sport Red Metallic GT) currently has 24,000 miles and the only work that has needed to be done was all done under warranty. The only drawbacks of this car are few: - These cars were made right as the entire industry really started moving toward infotainment systems and more upscale interiors, so the interior has become prematurely dated. It's not BAD, it's just not modern. But, it's still a great interior for what it is. - Not many of these were made, so there isn't a huge number of parts available for these cars. The engines are fine as they are LS-based engines so lots of parts there. But body panels and interior and exterior trim are hard to come by and command premium prices. There is good aftermarket support for these cars, but that tends to be geared for performance improvements, not replacement parts. I am beyond happy with my G8 and intend on keeping this car for a LONG, LONG time. It's my daily driver during the non-winter months, but has also been down the drag-strip a time or two. Best of both worlds! UPDATE (10/30/2015) - Car now has 32,500 miles and still puts a grin on my face every time I drive it. I've had no major problems over the last 8,000 miles since I wrote this review. The only thing that has truly gone wrong with the car in that time is that the out trim pieces of both front seats have broken where they attach to the frame of the seat. This causes the panels to sag. Apparently, this is a design flaw in the trim pieces and I have heard rumor that there is an updated panel that tries to resolve the issue available from GM dealers. However, I just used zip-ties to reattach them and you can't tell any difference from the way they originally were before they broke. Much cheaper than getting new parts I'm betting. Otherwise, this is still my favorite vehicle I've ever owned and I'm loving every moment in it!

I own a 2009 Pontiac g8 gt and I can only say good things about it especially the power of a ls2 corvette engine under the hood. Unfortunately pontiac went out of business but this is such a great car I would have bought in to the company for a live time. If your looking for power under thirty grand this is the car for you with a 6.0L engine that Makes 361hp it will move but if you also want something that can handle the g8 has that too with just a tap of the brake you can move around a corner quickly. The interior of this car is also very nice and makes you feel as if you are one of those fancy European luxury cars and this car comes equipped with onstar. Overall the 2009 Pontiac g8 gt is a great modern muscle car but there are flaws such a terrible gas mileage so if your looking to go green don't buy this car.

amazing engine performance, minimal braking distance required from 140-0, sharp looks and typical GM low grade plastic interior, many manufacturing defects to begin with therefore many trips to the dealer required ,stock wheels have a chronic vibrating at 90-110 disorder

The G8 with the V6 has more than adequate acceleration, especially used with the transmission in Sport mode. Get 21.5 mpg combined. The manumatic transmission is a great help when the weather is snowy. Build quality in and out is outstanding. The Maverick Silver color is great. The only negative I see is that the sunroof is noisy. But, this is a great car. Get one while you can! There are great deals to be had.
