If you are looking at this listing, you probably already know something about this car. Pontiac's last great muscle car and certainly their greatest car of the modern era. In short, it is a full size, four door sedan with enough room for the family and big trunk, packing a 415hp/415tq LS3 engine and a six-speed manual transmission. This type of car has unfortunately become quite difficult to find. I am the original owner, purchased in the Chicago metro area and lives there still. No drag racing no burnouts, no kids, no smoking, etc. The interior is like-new and the exterior is in very good condition. I have never had a mechanical issue, oil always changed with Mobil 1 synthetic. It is due for some 60k maintenance but I will leave that to the new owner. It is currently wearing 18" wheels with Continental ContiWinterContact tires. I will also include the original chrome GXP 19" wheels and tires, though at least two of the summer-only factory tires have leaks and all four original wheels have some curb damage (unfortunate side effect of parking in the city). Never at the racetrack though it would be at home there and most of the miles are from traveling the Midwest for my job. The exterior paint is good, with some small rock chips in the hood, a minor scratch on the driver's door, and a scuff on the lower front bumper (see photos). The rear bumper had some marks from city parkers so I had it repainted and now it looks perfect. Title is clear. Wheels aside, the car is completely free of aftermarket parts. I really love this car and am only selling it because I am moving to NYC. It is quite difficult to find a full size sedan with a powerful engine, great handling, and manual transmission. Handling is extremely responsive for full size, with power oversteer always on tap and very predictable. It is an absolute joy to drive. There were only 1829 Pontiac G8 GXPs produced. My research tells me this car is one of 30 with the combination of Panther Black Metallic, Onyx interior, no sunroof, and M6 transmission. Please read the reviews and do the research, it is a great car. Watch this video of Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear flogging the UK version which was sold as a Vauxhall, which I might add had a smaller 6.0L engine and does not look as nice as the Pontiac GXP trim. http://www.topgear.com/uk/videos/vauxhall-vxr8 It is a truly historic car and very fun to drive while being totally practical. I have done my best to include everything but feel free to contact with any questions. Car may be driven so mileage may not be exact.
