Yea, from what I hear the V6 will be around 25-26k, and the V8 will start at 32-33k.

I don't know if it just me, but it feels like pontiac is leaving its heritage. All the cars we have ever know are being replaced. The Bonnevill, Trans Am, Grand Am, and know the Grand Prix.

Either one(G8 or Camaro), I know I'll be waiting until the second model year at least to come out. I know alot of guys who weren't so happy to see the GTO get an LS2, bigger brakes and cosmetic upgrades after they shelled out for a 2004 model. I came from a '99 Grand Am GT to my GTO, in retrospect if I had been on a forum reading about the LIM gasket leaks and other issues I would have not bought the Grand Am. I'll be sure to be readin up on owners viewpoints for the G8 and Camaro.

its always best to wait a few years before buying a new model of car. i'm glad i waited until i bought my GTO... 05's and 06's have better brakes than the 04's, and the LS2. the 04's have problems with tires rubbing the suspension, and some of the 06's have had the problem with the front shocks blowing on them.

i knew which year model to get. :D
