Good News! Pontiac G8 is back(sort of)!

Bad News: It is now in the hands of the cops and is cop only.

Chevy has revealed the Chevy Caprice PPV( which is based on the Commodore's bigger brother the Holden Statesmen) for police use. It uses the same 6.0 V8 that the G8 GT used.

It makes more sense there. The cops don't care how much plastic in inside it.

It looks much uglier than the G8.

Anyone noticed that Dodge Chargers look cool only when they belong to the police?

It'd better get some better tires that those or a 6.0L (LS2?) will just melt those away in any persuit...

It's not the LS2. It's the same 6.0 V8 that you would find in a Silverado/Suburban........
