  • It's not often we see Pontiac G8s at the drag strip, especially ones with a parachute, drag radials, and skinnies up front. As soon we we heard the turbos screaming on this heavy hitter, we knew we had to check it out!

    My family sold Pontiac’s for about 80 years and I can’t stress enough how happy it makes me to see the Pontiac community alive. My grandpas philosophy was to always order the cars with the larger engine option. Worked great because his small dealership outsold many others simply because he knows everyone wants a nice big engine! (Before gas mileage was even something people would think about before buying a vehicle) Kept that business model till 2008 when gm ate shit and dumped the franchises. Was a great childhood playing around the showroom, g8 was my personal favorite. Would love to build an old gto in memory of my grandfather. A true American immigrant who went from sharing a single piece of bread with the family for dinner, to being able to die knowing his family would never again experience the starvation that drove them to America.
