I took it out over lunch and found a few more quirks:
1. Overall, it was very uncomfortable. I messed around with the seat for 5 minutes to get it even remotely comfortable. 2. It shifted very hard, almost a clunk between gears. 3. I think the radio is self-adjusting, so as you gained speed it went louder, and as you slowed down, it got quieter. It was very annoying. I think they would be better off just making the vehicle quieter. 4. Power was lacking, but I am used to a GTP, so I am likely spoiled. 5. Slamming the door was an adventure in vibration.
Overall, I am just more used to a larger car, so I felt a bit cramped.
I have been kicking around a GXP for a year, but now not sure with the exit of Pontiac.
I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure. I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe. 1968 400 convertible (Scarlet) 1976 T/A - 455 LE (No Burt) 1976 T/A New baby, starting full restoration. 1968 350 - 4 speed 'vert - 400 clone (the Beast!) 1968 350 convertible - Wife's car now- 400 clone (Aleutian Blue) (Blue Angel) 2008 Durango - DD 2008 GXP - New one from NH is AWESOME! 2017 Durango Citadel - Modern is nice!

I know for one thing that new car radios come defaulted to radio volume adjusted for speed, but you can usually turn that off.
I hate it too.
I am also surprised - the G8 seems to get rave reviews by most.

It's usually a menu function. It will scroll through balance, fade, bass...
It should be in the owners manual.

I truely hate to hear of your dis-satisfaction. Although they are easily out of my price range, I had been under the impression they were really nice. Maybe you just got a hold of a bad one.
