Oh Man! Pontiac G8 Ute pics and video! 
The story on the new Pontiac G8 ute just went up on jalopnik. there's a whole crapload of pictures and video. It's getting the same engine as the G8 GT and apparently will do 0-60 in 5.4, i want one. The press release went live tonight and there are a TON of pictures and info at Jalopnik. The video posted is hilarious, couldn't figure out how to pull it down, but that vid is worth the trip alone. http://jalopnik.com/366699/2010-pont...camino-is-back Last edited by benwojdyla; 03-14-2008 at 11:39 PM.

I will buy this over the sedan, AND trade my GTO for it. This is going to be one of the most unique, head-turning muscle cars on the market.

About time you guys got the good ole Holden Ute there. There is loads of modded ones here and I predict they will be a hit there as well.
cheers

I would love this freaking car. What are the dimensions of the bed in the back. Enough room to all ****, and freaking have a great time doing it. Can you imagine having people sit in the back of the bed....."Hey guys, wanna come and sit in my G8...go for a little ride" (Screeching tires....going side ways down the street...people shitting their pants. OH YEA!
This is truely an exciting time for GM and Pontiac. American Muscle FTMFW!

I can't believe they'd release the "ute" instead of the wagon...The wagon seems much more functional. I mean, how many regular cab pickup trucks are sold now - besides to utility companies, etc?

Functional....? you do know there making performance cars right? if you want functional go get a chevy pickup or dodge. or get a tribeca, or any of the volvo vagons or wrx wagon variants if you want more functionality over performance.
and almost all "performance" trucks are Poor for functionality uses. both the lightning and the srt10 has horribly towing capacities and certain years would void the warranties on the powertrain if you towed anything.
and if you truely wanted fuctionality in terms of a wagon sedan... Vans have more power, more room, better gas mileage. but thats just a fun fact there
GO pontiac!!!!!
