WTS/T: TVS-charged 2009 G8 for C6
I have a supercharged (TVS1900) 2009 Pontiac G8 for sale. Is anyone interested in an outright sale or possible C6 trade? I have never had one issue with it. Quite honestly, the only reason I am selling is because I would like to move onto another "project". Outright the car is listed at $30,000. Below is information from the ad I put together on a sales site. Just an FYI, the car made 440 rwhp with a 10.9-11.2:1 A/F in 95 degree heat in southeast Louisiana on 7 psig. I now live in northwest Ohio. If interested, PM me and we can talk. I previously owned a C5
but have owned a 1000+hp turbocharged Cobra and a couple of Supra's as well. This G8 was by far the most streetable, reliable and practical of the any of the vehicle I have owned (modified or not). I'm just ready to move on and I would like to get into a C6 sometime between now and Spring 2011.
Performance and practicality, look no further than this 2009 Pontiac G8 GT. The design team from the BMW M5 was utilized in development of this refined sports sedan. While retaining the sleek from the factory yet aggresive appearance, this vehicle has performance modifications replicating much of the SLP Firehawk performance package. Modifications were thoroughly planned out, ensuring factory levels of reliability and drivability as the primary goals of the package. As my daily driver, this sports sedan averages 27 mpg highway and 18 mpg city, with nearly 85 percent of the miles being a highway commute to work. While maintaining factory reliability and drivability was the primary objective in the selection of modifications, the performance is simply breathtaking. While the natural lines of the car are smooth yet aggresive, the near silent operation of the Corvette ZR-1 technology TVS supercharger, coupled with a factory OEM exhaust system has retained the refinement of the vehicle. Possessing a proven 500+ HP, operation of the vehicle is near silent.. Thorough maintenance, with corresponding records (Mobil 1 5w-30 Synthetic with a Mobil 1 filter every 4,000 miles past the initial break in period) have been kept. This has been the most enjoyable and reliable performance automobile I have had the pleasure of owning. This is a southern vehicle ( Louisiana ) so there is no contact with salt or corrosives and is garaged when not driven. The undercarriage of the vehicle is as clean as the body and underhood area. I am the original owner of this vehicle and possess purchasing documentation. If you are looking for a car which maintains factory level of reliability and drivability with the performance, look no further than this car.

Nice! Any particular year Z? I have a friend from LA contemplating selling his '06 (red, stock) Z06.
I thought about removing the TVS and selling separately, but it's a nice package deal if someone would want to purchase together (and save them money too). I will keep the car primarily garaged in the winter (...I'll drive the 4wd) and maybe de-mod then while I am not driving it. Any day it is not raining, I drive this car. I'm enjoying the weather too much not to. A little off topic...but here are a couple of past vehicles I noted above...

Thanks! The Cobra, by leaps and bounds, was the most powerful car I have ever driven. It was pure violence at WOT.
Honestly, this G8 is the nicest, most reliable and refined car I have owned. I took a very measured approach to modifications of the car (looked for refinement, reliability and drivability over ultimate power production). The TVS fit the bill perfectly. I still have the stock exhaust on the car (it's actually more quiet now than when it was stock). Anyhow, thanks for the compliments on the G8 and past vehicles. For a CF member, I would likely work with the individual a little on the price too. It's a perfect daily driver!

It's a 2009. However, there is an individual I know who sells a BT kit works through the OEM system for around $200. League City is a nice area. I used to drive through there when I would travel to Galveston. I have a good friend who just moved there back in March and she loves it.
