Sat down and talked to my Dad yesterday. Since my brother graduated yesterday he's getting a used car of his choice. He graduated in 5 years. Here's the cool part.
My dad told me straight up and honest, if I graduate on time (college / 4 years) he'll buy me a G8. Yes, it'll be used. Yes Pontiac is dead. But still I will be obsessed with the car.
Every single car my family has ever owned has been white, I want to do another color but not sure which one. So even though it's 4 years away, im already looking for stuff for it.

Since they are eliminating Pontiac and the G8 you can always get one of these:

This front end actually looks good. GM should just rebadge the G8 with this front end.

The silver Impala is photochopped, the orange one is the car you posted in that link. The Camaro uses the same platform but it just has 4 doors instead of 2.
