2009 Pontiac G8 GXP
The 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP was a high-performance variant of the G8 sedan and a final, powerful testament to Pontiac’s performance roots. A rebadged version of the Australian-built Holden Commodore, the G8 GXP was designed for drivers who wanted supercar punch without giving up a back seat, trunk, or comfort. Under the hood, it boasts the potent 6.2L LS3 V8 engine, the same found in the base Corvette of the era, producing 415 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque. This power is sent to the rear wheels through a high desirable 6-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. The GXP wasn’t just about straight-line speed; its performance numbers matched heavyweight four-door bruisers like the BMW M5 and Mercedes-AMG sedans of the time.
