Default G8 GXP and UTE on display this Saturday at Sewell BPG Dallas.

I just got word that we will have some GM and Holden execs here at the dealership on Saturday. They're bringing a G8 Ute and the G8 GXP to display as well. The execs are going to be here from 9-11 but I'm not sure about the cars. I'm guessing they will be taking them when they leave.

Feel free to come by and check these cars out.

Can you take a look at the GXP exhaust and see if it is as restrictive as the G8 exhaust?

I won't be here. I'm going to the NTTGA BBQ that day. I dunno if they'll let us put in the air or not. I'm guessing not.

You should get someone to take pics, it would be cool if it was closer to a production model rather than the car that was unveiled earlier this year.

This one will likely be the same as the production car. Remember they go into production later this year.

Can you get someone to ask when they think the UTE will be available? Thanks

Just wanted to let everyone know that the cars are here now. The GXP is the orange one that has been on display across the country.

We need Pics

Take a look underneath it and see what size exhaust pipe is on it
