"The 2008 G8 packs four doors, rear-wheel drive, a big V8, a six-speed transmission and near 50/50 weight distribution. GM has even gone so far as to equip the G8 with a twin-pivot MacPherson strut front suspension with tons of caster, which is exactly the equation that provides BMW with its legendary steering feel.
Just two line items would throw you off, though: The V8 is a stump-pulling 6.0 liters large and the price tag, not so much at $29,995."
