A rare overhaul of a 1-Owner Untouched G8

With the last MY (model year) G8 coming up on being 10 years old, it is very rare to find one unmodified and still held by its original owner. That being said, it is an even a rarer event to learn that this owner, after so many years of owning it in its stock form, is ready to heavily modify it..in walks Troy Schnack.
Troy reached out to us looking to bring his G8 to its best possible version of itself. His build list seemed to grow daily, and in the end almost nothing was left untouched. All of the wrenching for this project was done by our friends Jason Posner, Kenny Thorsen and Derrick Rodrigues out of their Staten Island shop (aka: Sesame Street Racing).
Above and beyond the parts Troy got from us, he also purchased a CTS-V2 Brembo brake upgrade kit, some OZ wheels, a G8 Designs double din radio upgrade and some paddle shifters to start. Finished off by a full paint correction.
