Hey guys,
I currently have an 11 turbo regal with a 6spd manual.

I have been itching lately to trade it in on a G8 GT given that I've been in love with those cars for years, and am a Pontiac fanboy for no real reason.

I posted the same thing on g8board and they all told me to trade it and get the G8... assuming the opposite will be over here.

I was just wondering if anyone had experience with both and what their opinions were. I know I'll be giving up gas mileage and the manual trans for 3 times the displacement. From what I've seen and read, interiors are comparable.

So what're the pros and cons comparing a regal turbo to a G8 GT?


Thanks
Jim

Does anyone have any experience comparing a regal to a G8?

I sold my 2009 G8 GT a couple of years ago and bought a 2012 Regal Turbo 1. The G8 GT is great car.

Biggest differences are the noise levels in the vehicle (louder in the G8) and POWER. The G8 GT has gobs of it.

I sold it due to getting a very good cash paying private offer on it. Also I was a little tired of seeing 11 MPG in bumper to bumper Northern Virginia traffic.
