Pontiac G8 by 50 Cent and Unique Autosports!!!!

lightningGA · 11-01-2007, 06:11 PM

The 50 Cent G8 is a collaboration with Will Castro's New York-based Unique Autosports, of Unique Whips fame.
Two features stand out.
Under the hood is a 7.0-liter LSX 427 V8 from the GM Performance Parts catalog.
It shares many of its basic components with the Corvette Z06's LS7 engine
and is dyno-tested to more than 500 horsepower.

Equally earth-shaking is the custom 800-watt JBL audio system, which bundles amplifiers, tuner,
speakers and subwoofer.

A few additional touches include low-profile Pirelli Scorpion Zero tires on 22-inch NC Forged chrome deep-dish wheels,
a Borla stainless-steel exhaust system and a Spies Hecker torch-red exterior paint job accented with dark-tinted glass
and taillamps.

The only real hint of excess is found inside, where the black leather seats have been retrimmed
with perforated red-leather inserts and a 50 Cent/Unique Autosports logo embroidered into the headrests.

Not really feeling the black stripe but I really love the G8. I'm pretty excited to see those on the road.

That is Beautiful

Mirrors either need to be body color or glossy black. Interior could have had more done to it, but I'm sure GM said no to that. I wanna see what numbers it'll run!

Cormaster · 11-01-2007, 06:32 PM

lmao I knew this car would have a little bit of ghetto appeal to it. Just like the Charger/Magnum/300C. Either way though it looks pretty good.

Tonyyank · 11-01-2007, 06:40 PM

6-speed!!!!!!!!!!

Only thing its missing!!!

notsoaveragej0e · 11-01-2007, 08:34 PM

Can someone photoshop it with out the stripe down the middle? I think it would look really good without it, but keep the black grills.

Amen!

Pretty sik. Though I'm assuming that most of you don't watch much BET or rap videos for that matter 50/G-Unit have been using G6/G8's in their videos for quite some time now.

There's a G6 "Street Edition" that's endorsed by 50.

Looks to be a blaupunkt system in the pic unless it's just the radio which would be weird. Nice post
