Somehow, I don't think the 6 speed manual G8 will be much faster than the 6 speed auto. Anyone else feel the same?
according to GM, the engine is getting a slight increase in power for the manual

As cacimar said, look at that trap. If a magazine is taking the car to a 104 trap with a measly 13.7, we can all agree there is a lot more ground to be made up there with a good launch.
well said, there are a bunch of S197 GT guys here in low 13s trapping 104-106.

the 6 speed auto is suppose to have pretty clean shifts with the paddles.. I really think this car is gunna be capable of low 13's with a solid launch. that superbee srt 8 charger couldnt pull on it and those cars can pull 107+mph 1/4's. From what im hearing i dont really know if my mach would be able to take it. Pretty solid comming from a reasonable priced sedan.

I read on g8boards.com that the g8 is supposed to get the GXP version which will have the LS3 in it. Making 425 horsepower. It was speculation but they had a couple websites listed too so...

It would make sense to me giving it about another 70 horses. It should be an awesome car.
