Vauxhall VXR8

Hammy · 05-14-2008, 10:55 AM

Well, i was watching Fifth Gear a couple of months back and they road tested a VXR8.

they say that its the same car as a Pontiac G8 with a different badge, of course.

so, my question is that is this car really worth it; even though they say that its the cheapest car below $30 grand? i mean, does the cost go to the huge engine only? and are all the rest of the components sacrificed? like suspension, etc?

It is the same car, put them side by side, the Vauxhall version is quite a bit faster though and different skirts or something. All in all it's still a mamma car weighing way too much, and probably couldn't outhandle shit.
