    The first one is a win to me. I love it being the monster others don't know about. Until you open it up of course.

    I've been a G8 owner for as almost a year (May 2020.) I have the base 2008 V6. SV6 Commodore.
    I've noticed a lot of G8 owners complain about the positioning of the window switches. Understandable. But I HATE the placement of the truck release button!

      Hahaha!! Good one! In the glove box! I agree!!!

      I have a G8 base model that I bought in 2008 new. I like it even if it only has 270HP.
      The window switch location was just like my BMW E30 so was no big deal as well as the manually adjustable seats. It’s terrible you have to actually move and turn a dial. Lol.
      Yeah it scrapes still does mine is pretty rough on the bottom.

Go look up tazer by Zautomotive then apologize. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ If you just coming into the car scene do your research before you say something. Makes you look not intelligent. 3 settings come with the tazer and a bunch of extra goodies like linelock. Forced AWD, Forced RWD and Normal mode. That pic on my name is my AWD doing a burn out.

    My five things I hate about my G8 GT : strut bushings go bad, super expensive aftermarket audio options, Horn is too quiet, A/C belt will jump off at high rpm, insurance is too high.. I really love the car but I'm planning to trade it for a Mercury Marauder..

    • @ArathiBasinFTW

    • @tomnewham1269
      @tomnewham1269 2 года назад

      Not hard to change the horn, just get an aftermarket one. In regards to the belt jumping off would be done to a misalignment and I'm guessing it is the A/C compressor which is the cause and so it would be easy to get that sorted out.
