I would suggest the G1W for a inexpensive dash cam, it has great video and does not have all the problems as the GS8000 with the Novatek as discussed HERE.

The cheap ones with the Novatek have poor video quality and have a problem with recording for a brief period, camera freezing and it just going dead, A problem I had on another cheap Novatek based dash cam.

I have recorded many hours of very good video in HD 1080 and 720p on a 32GB class 10 and also on a 16GB class 4 with the G1W and have no problems at all. I can read street signs and car license plates clearly with video taken by it. After watching This Video Compared to THIS VIDEO I can see that the G1W is vastly superior to the GS8000.

At nearly the same PRICE POINT as the GS8000 the best buy for the quality would be the G1W.

I use a iOS app on my cellphone and iPad called iSymDVR. iSyMDVR

Yes, it's a microSD card. You may want to use a Class 10 card. Mine will record at 720P HD using a Class 4 card, but 1080P may be pushing its data rate recording limits.
