When describing the quintessential American sedan, car enthusiasts no-doubt mention V8 engines and rear-wheel drive. So it is surprising that Pontiac, General Motor’s supposed performance division, hasn’t offered that powertrain combination for years. Classic car fans can now rejoice: the Pontiac G8 is a thoroughly modern car that harkens back to the rear-wheel-drive glory days of American sedans.
Having been out of the rear-drive V8 game for a while, Pontiac found inspiration in Australia where high-power sedans have thrived for decades. Essentially a re-badged Australian-market sedan, the G8 delivers a much-needed performance punch for Pontiac, in both V6 and V8 flavors.
