i paid 27 even but got a little more for my trade then i should have. i am sure i could have got it for 26,500 or maybe a little less without a trade in.

i have been looking at used too. right now i think 20k would be tuff. more like 21k would give you a few cars to pick from. something else i have noticed are a lot of the cars that are for sale are rentals and beat up a little.

Congrats Jim!! I've been looking into those lately too. Not 100% if I'm going to pull the trigger yet or not but they seem like a pretty nice all around car.

Lol...he said he had a G8 and I've been looking to get one too, so I did a little digging to see which one he got! Kinda interested to hear his feedback on it so far.

i like the car. pretty much what i expected. kinda cheap interior but a really bad *** driveline.

the radio sucks, climate control is overly complex, seat recline is a silly **** you have to spin.

brakes are great, i can take turns fast and drive very aggressively and it soo easy. comfy seats, giant back seat and trunk. 13.5's STOCK!!! room for very large tires in the rear.

i have a pair of 60mm turbos ordered. should be here any day and the garage is just a few days from being ready to use.

So it's exactly like everything else GM has made in the past 10 years or so.
