does the 6cyl get the same a6? the same rear end? are there any suspension changes? interior changes?
might try and snag a cheap 6cyl g8 and make the z28 fast...

I think they get a A5 tranny, different gears and a few minor interior differences. I wouldnt doubt if maybe the springs are different rates as well

I check wiki.. (yea i know) and it said base and GT got the same "FE2" suspension package.. and the GXP got the "FE?" with bigger brakes and whatnot.. i dont care about the gearing, is it the same bolt/inch rear.. ie if i were to ever upgrade the motor would it handle it.

Well the gxp has a beefier rear and most gt people are swapping in camaro diffs so no I dont think its the same.

Why not just get a GT? Unless things have changed a whole lot from when I bought my G8 the V6 was just alittle cheaper. Now that was 2 years ago and things could have changed but usually it was only 2-4 grand cheaper.

My "certified pre owned" had every panel on the console fall off due to clips not even being there anymore. A radio you could wobble in the dash because of no screws, and a horn not even bolted down in the engine bay by the brake booster. Oh and no badges on the whole car either.
Some certification eh?
