    apparently...not sure about the quarter times but yes on the 500hp...but for 50k I would much rather put that towards a vette or buy a used vette. Too bad G8's are four doors and kinda ugly IMO.

    according to this the quarter is 12.6 and the 0-60 in the low fours:

    Its some video on youtube of them runnin down the track an puts down pretty good numbers. I think they have a clean look but when i seen this one gt near me lowered with some black 18's or 19's i could easily notice the sports car/ muscle look to it.

    so the black 18 or 19's made it look like a sports/muscle car?

    Alot of cars put black wheels on them espcially light colored ones. And once u lower them with a different size a wheel or deeper lip it gives off a sportier look. for ex. 18's in front an 19's in back with a deeper lip an lowered an such makes the cars stance more aggressive like.

    i will grant, to me the g8 has a really short nose. might look better if they shifted the front wheel back about 2" and added 1" of nose length

    Putting the wheels that far out helps with weight distribution and handling.
