If you are going to drop $38k, you might want to look at the Pontiac G8 GXP - more horses, true V8 and good looks to boot

How is the G8 any better when it comes to gas? The Ford is a turbo V6 expected to put out good milage numbers. Personally I like the sleeper look of the Ford vs the Aussie G8. Now if you could get the Holder bodywork on the US G8, that would be nice.

Not saying that it is better on gas - I'm saying if you are looking to drop $38k on a performance car, you might as well get a monster for the same cost as the V6 twin-turbo SHO 415HP vs 365HP for the same cost...

you can import the body panels from Australia but it is costly...I think in the right colors, the car is a show stopper

My contribution:

2006 Acura TL - loaded to the hilt

Too much customized stuff to list. Let's just say I've had a lot of fun with this car.

FYI - that's also my work in the background, and I created that logo on the building!

Your car needs smoked tails. That would complete the look.

Agreed...and I generally don't even like smoked lenses of any kind.

All these cars are sweet!

I want LED smoked tails for my Fit but they are rather expensive. About $400. I'd rather get rims.

Lanfear, is that an 07 or 08 MAZDA 6?

I bought an 09 MZ6 in December... Was tempted by the great deals on the '08s, but couldn't pass up the deal I got on a fully loaded 6S GT.

If he goes any bigger, there will be no rubber on the road, lol? I think the size is perfect, just needs a slight drop.
