Cool What car?

Ok so I used to have a Cobalt SS 07 but then I had to traded it with my cousin even though I paid it for myself and being 17 turning 18 tomorrow I had to put in 2 summers of work for it. but anyways I ended up with a 04 impala ls very nice though low miles and basically perfect so I wasn't complying I thought a automatic would be a nice change, but know i want to go back to "race car" jk. But I have been looking around on the world wide web and I have discovered the Pontiac G8. And I was deciding what car would you guy want to have a Cobalt SS coupe or a Pontiac Gxp G8 09 manual? I know the Pontiac cost more but what would you choose? basically I want a pro and con of both cars?

Do you realize how much a g8 gxp's are when you find them? No way you can afford it, ****, i dont think you can afford just the g8 GT , with two summers pay lol.

unless, your parents are buying you the car, then thats just lame.

Sorry I had too.
But in serious note, G8 is bigger it will cost more.
I recommend when you have a steady income or good job do it.
Or if you have someone that can pay it for you, by all means.

I have a feeling that once things start breaking on the g8 you'd regret purchasing a Holden. Nice car for sure, but probably not a good idea if you're living paycheck to paycheck if you catch my drift.

G8 GXP manuals go for $30k plus for nice ones. The cars are not comparable, get a boosted Cobalt.
