how do you like that G8? I rode in one with a SC and it was crazy fast. Donuts all day long

I love the G8, actually. It's not supercharged, but it is the GT with the 6.0L V8 to which I've added a cold air intake, Solo exhaust and a tune, which definitely cranks the hp up a bit.

When I bought it I thought the handling might be a bit lacking compared to the Solstice, but it is pretty damn nimble in the curves for such a big car.  I would probably be hard pressed to say which car I like better, the G8 or the Solstice, as they are both so much fun to drive.  But they are definitely suited to different purposes.

Having only rear-wheel drive cars in my hilly part of NJ is sometimes a bit of a challenge in the snow and ice, but that's why I put snow tires on the G8 for winter.

I usually store the toys clean, so they need to go in when the weather is still not cold as I need to wash them beforehand.  This year it's likely the end of October.  The Z06 will probably be turned in soon; first week of October if I can have it back from the Corvette god.  In general, it's November to May, so it's nearly 7 months long out of a year.
