I kind of went berserk when I saw this. I have a couple of other G8s on my photostream, and I've noted that this piece of australian engineering has long been a dream car of mine. But to date I've only ever photographed base G8 sedans or GTs. The GXP(with its 415hp LS3 V8 sourced from the Corvette) was a car I thought I might never get a chance to see, much less photograph. I had a point-when production of the G8 ended last year, less than 2000 had been built. The thing is practically an exotic.
Low and behold, here I am leaving a seafood restaurant in Boston with family when I spot this gem just sitting in the mall parking lot all by its lonesome!
If you're lucky enough to live in the Middle East, England or Australia/New zealand, you can still buy this car as either a Chevy CSV CR8, a Vauxhall VXR8, or a Holden HSV Clubsport R8. If you're like me and you're just a hapless Holden lover stuck in the US or Canada...take a good look. They aren't coming back.
Built for Flickr LUGNuts 4-year anniversary, to the theme 'Anything Under the Sun' - this open top Corvette is the perfect way to blow away the remainder of your hair.
Based on the C6 Coupe, the Convertible shares the fundamental chassis and design, but reinforces the sill area to maintain bending rigidity. The C6 is the six generation of a long running series of open top sports cars from the GM Chevrolet division, commencing in 1953. This latest C6 version was first released in 2005, with an expected C7 replacement in 2013. The Corvette is the longest running series production sportscar from the USA.
The current Corvette is powered by the LS3 V8 engine of 6.2 litres capacity, with outputs of 436 hp (325 kW).

The Chevrolet Corvette (C6) is the sixth generation of the Corvette sports car that was produced by Chevrolet from 2005 to 2013. It is the first Corvette with exposed headlamps (as opposed to hidden headlamps) since the 1962 model.
The Corvette C6 featured new bodywork with exposed headlamps, revised suspension geometry, a larger passenger compartment, a larger 5,967 cc (364.1 cu in; 6.0 L) V8 engine and a higher level of refinement. It is 5.1 inches (13 cm) shorter than the C5, but the wheelbase was increased by 1.2 inches (3 cm). It is also one inch (2.5 cm) narrower. The new GM LS2 engine has a power output of 400 hp (298 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 400 lb⋅ft (542 N⋅m) of torque at 4,400 rpm. Like the C5, the Corvette C6's suspension consisted of independent unequal-length double wishbones with transverse fiberglass mono-leaf springs and optional magnetorheological dampers.
Beginning with the 2008 model year, the Corvette received a new engine, the LS3. With displacement increased to 6,162 cc (376.0 cu in; 6.2 L), power was increased to 430 hp (321 kW) at 6,500 rpm and 424 lb⋅ft (575 N⋅m) of torque at 4,600 rpm, or 436 hp (325 kW) and 428 lb⋅ft (580 N⋅m) with the optional vacuum actuated valve exhaust
