Default WIFE'S BOLT-ONS G8 GT vs. '03 MUSTANG GT WITH MODS - VIDEO!

After recently finishing the build on my wife's 2009 Pontiac G8 GT, I was eager to get a "W" on the roster. It finally happened....the first victim being a modded '03 Mustang GT.

Good kill... but do you really consider that G8 "Built" in the sense that your mods made it "built", or "built" in the sense that GM "built" it?

Yeah good question. Most would consider "built" as in major modifications to the bottom end of the engine having been done; or at least full H/C/I +boltons. Big diff between a "built" car and a "full bolt on" car. I didn't consider my G8 "built" until I did the 402 stroker.

+1 to the lack of built G8s in that video.

I consider "built" to mean bottom-end strengthening.

Good kill though.

Good grief! I can honestly say that 95% of the posts I've made in this forum, SoMeOnE finds SoMeThInG to critique somewhere in the title, post or video, then every other user has to follow suit with ridin that same wave. Geeeez, just don't read the title an quietly watch the video! SMDH!

Nice G8, i can't wait until my wife's lease is up on her S.U.V. because the G8 is going to be the next "family" car.

Very nice kill for a big *** sedan. It's a bolt On, not built. I second the "it's built if you did some bottom end work".

Your frustrations are understandable but then again that G8 is not "built" so it is no surprise that people are ribbing you about it. Just take it in stride and use it as a lesson for next time.

yeeesh, I said good kill and just thought it should say bolt on G8 vs blah blah blah. Doesn't take away from the fact that it was a good kill with just a bolt on G8.
