So just out of curiousity and shear boredom today, I was looking at a few different cars for under 40K. I came across a couple that I thought I might get some opinions about. NO, I'm not planning on purchasing either one, but just wanted to gauge opinions.

Pontiac G8 GXP - 415hp / 405ftlbs / RWD / 0-60 in 4.7 and about 13 flat for the 1/4. The V8 in this thing gets pretty decent gas mileage for a V8 but as a 4-door sedan it's also well over 4000lbs. Oh and around $38K

Saturn Sky Redline - 260hp / turbo / RWD and nothing else really noteworthy and it's around $32K

What do you guys think. Would people still get a better bang for their buck spending a little extra for say... a Porsche, or a Beamer or even the 370?
