Both the Pontiac G8 GXP and the LSX454 has a crate engine from GM Performance Parts and are ready for 2009. Also, the GM engineers have no other way to highlight this ferocious street monster. In the factory, the G8 GXP features a 6.2L V-8 rated at 415 lb –ft of torque, but the new LSX454 delivers a 7.4 liter of unadulterated cough. The handling and stopping performance of this car are forwarded with a lowered ride height, stiffer springs and a disc brake package borrowed from the Cadillac CTS-V.

The calipers are painted red and featured CNC-milled GXP logos that are visible with a set of customer 20-inch aluminum wheels with a wicked black chrome touch. The exterior of the silver G8 GXP Street concept wears a custom front and a rear fascias and a new rocker panel that gives it a more unique look. Given the face that this is a racing car, there is also a performance exhaust system with custom-cut aluminum tip exiting through the rear fascia. Overall, this car is a menacing car and it has the system to back up the attitude.

Up and coming for 2009 is the Solstice coupe, a sleek, heart-racing hardtop body style with a removable roof panel. It can enable an open-air driving experience and offer a greater range of all-season driving opportunities. Like any other Solstice roadster, the new coupe model is a 260-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter Ecotec engine. The Pontiac brings out a specially coated GXP coupe to SEMA.

The car also wears a GM Performance parts cat-back exhaust system and a race-ready suspension kit. The outside is coated with an Olympic White and features a Hydro Blue racing stripe that can inspire a graphic kit from GM Accessories. Inside the solstice, it features a blue accent stitching on its leather-trimmed seats, racing-style pedal covers. Also, it has an iPod interface for the audio system.
