Porsche-911-GT3-RS-AutoExpress.jpg

Auto Express have published thier "test driven" review of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS supercar. 'At 1,370kg, the RS is around 25kg lighter than the regular GT3, even though its wider body is heavier to start with. The most obvious weight-saving measures include the fitting of a composite engine lid, plastic rear windscreen, carbon wing and light wheels. But the RS also makes do without cup-holders or sound-deadening in the roof. What's more, it features fabric pulls instead of interior door handles to shave off a few more grams. Climb into the bucket seat - trimmed in race-style, flame-resistant Nomex - and you're faced by a minimalist dash with no sound system or air-con. These are available only as optional extras. Adding to the drama is the fact that all you can see through the rear view mirror is the roll cage.'

A review of the 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP has been posted over at TheTruthAboutCars.com 'The Pontiac G8 GXP includes model-specific 19-inch wheels and a more aggressive front fascia. If you were expecting something more distinctive, you're SOL. Just like the G8 GT most people will mistake it for, the GXP is a tasteful (aside from the hood scoops) homage to BMW's E46 M3--that lacks the visual punch of Chrysler's large SRT sedans. For all the talk that tastefully reserved pre-Bangle BMWs were da bomb, the Pontiac G8 proves that subtle styling doesn't attract buyers to a new model.'
