When there’s less to do, it’s harder to get things done. This is a rule. The same as the one about peanut butter and dogs. Anyway, Robert and I spoke about all things bailout on Wednesday. And in other news, the V8 version of the Pontiac G8 gets better pricing with every day – 2008 model year cars with under 10,000 miles are going for the mid $20k range on eBay Motors. This particular one, with 8900 miles, is marginally even broken in and it’s only $23,900. Beats the heck out of the $32,000 MSRP this thing originally had. Imagine how cheap these beasts will be in a year.

I finally took a look at one last weekend and just couldn’t get over how ugly it looked. Every Pontiac stylist needs to be called out and fired. The same people who brought you the Asstek are still at work.
Seriously, what Pontiac vehicle looks better than its twin Saturn or Chevy?
If they do pass a damn bailout, I demand to be able to claim the billions they give the auto-industry as a tax write-off.
I motion that going forward, the Chevy Volt shall be referred to on TTAC as the “Pandermobile.” Nicely coined, Justin.
I’m sure part of the reason for new car sales being in the tank is the great values available in the used market.
2 yr old lease returns continue to pile up on lots and prices sink.
20 grand buys a new econobox or a 2 yr old loaded luxury car.
Yes $23,900 does beat $32,000 MSRP but who’s paying MSRP for anything right now? I bet in a few months you’ll be able to buy a new one for not much over 26-27. MSRPon my ‘06 GTO was $33,000 and I got it for $27,500.
Make no mistake Ford dropped a whole F load of cash on the failed D3 platform, probably over a month’s worth.
Hey, I see the Truth Vs. Fiends podcast on the Autofiends site. Why isn’t my iTunes TTAC subscription picking them up? I can’t find the Autofiends podcast in iTunes.
@SpacemanSpiff:
iTunes only picks up podcasts posted on http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com.
I’d post the autofiends one here, too, but we’re having some technical issues. Should be sorted out soon.
