After 4 years and 130K miles, I sold my xB. It felt kinda like I was betraying it, wierrrrd.

It was a great car though! It went to a nice, 61 year old man here in NC. Funny story (well not really but kinda), his wife died last week and he is giving her car to his daughter...

His reason for getting the xB?

His wife never let him have one because she thought they were too ugly! lol.

Wanna know what I'm getting next? I'm sure you don't but I'll tell you anyway.

It looks like I'm having my first-quarter-life-crisis at the age of 23 because I saddled up some dough and am picking this up next week:










A Liquid Red 2009 G8 GT! Used but good looking (to me)!

I will miss being part of the Scion crowd though.... unless I find a $2K DD Scion somewhere...

 

well atleast you traded up lol have fun witht he new ride

 

I loved the story (except the part about the wife dying). If we see any 61 yos here, we'll be sure to welcome him!

 

Fly like a G8...? No...? hahahaha

 

sucks that Pontiac was finally starting to produce good cars again and they got cut.. The New (old now) GTO and G8 are GREAT CARS!!

wonder if the G8 is based off a Holden or Vauxhall like the GTO was

 

Nice i love the g8 an the gto is so sick to

 

The g8 is literally a rebadged Holden Commodore SS-V! Thats the only reason i considered it. If it was just a normal pontiac i wouldnt have looked twice.

 

Everyone tried to dissuade me from buying it..."why in the world would you get a pontiac?!" I dont even explain how its imported from australia anymore lol.

My pops tried to tell me it looks just like a g6! I almost threw up

 

congrats on the new ride...that thing should get great gas mileage

well ok...it's will be a blast to drive

 

I wanna pick up a thousand dollar celica or mr2 for daily work duty.

 

Chevy may bring this platform back as possibly a fleet only car
