I tried sitting in a G8 a while ago and I couldn't fit, my knees hit the steering wheel even if I pull it all the way up :cry:
Well at least I still have the GP which I pull the steering wheel all the way up and the the seat all the way back almost.

really? i'm 6'6", and i fit in the car just fine. its actually quite comfortable to drive and ride in.

anywho, winter rims and tires went on yesterday afternoon, after i almost wrecked it driving in the first significant snow of the year. summer only tires FTL.

It has a telescoping wheel, did you try that? I bet it was extended all the way out.

That's a sharp looking G8, blue is my favorite color on them. I've been looking at used 2008's but I have only found some red ones in my area, which look pretty sharp too. So how do you like it?

Cool, so what about the performance factor, how's the power and speed? I've looked at a few G8 GT's lately and they wouldn't let me test drive one...YET.
