I just looked up some production numbers, and the G8 barely sold 12K units. Let's see, the f-body was canned at what? when production was 40K a year?(98 camaros had a production number of 50K for the new model year). I really thought the G8 was selling better than 12K. It's gonna take a while for GM to make any kind of money on that car with numbers like that for the first year.

Btw, the Gto actually outsold the G8 when comparing the first year sales. 15K to 12K. So I don't think it's looking to good for the G8 especially with GM's money problems.
