first off the 6.0 here is is not blown
secondly the vauxhall is blown from the factory
thirdly you realize how easy it would be to order the stock blower of it and bolt it right to the G8
fourthly the big reason gm is copying holden is the massive aftermarket that is already setup

I loved his remarks about the simplicity of it:
You press the middle pedal to slow down, and you press the pedal on the right to make more noise.
I should make a sig quote out of that.

Yeah, I'm glad he compared it to the Germans. The G8 really is without a doubt one of the best cars GM has ever put into production.

Its good, but its not great. Pontiac has to steer clear of the Germans, let Cadillac take on that fight.

Just my humble opinion. Not trying to argue, you're probably more educated than I about this.
