My job involves driving over an extensive area, and the mileage I get with my G5 is worth every penny that I spend on gas (30-32 mpg highway, 25-29 mpg city). The driver information system alerts are also very helpful - so far only needed for traction and tire pressure.
G-5 excellent

We have had our G5 a short while. But I have to say! The car has performed up to it's consumer ratings and some. I would highly suggest this car for anyone. A lot of fun to drive. Very sporty looking. And gets great fuel mileage. Very cool little car. Will make you feel young again. We had a 2006 Dodge Charger. Nothing but problems with it. I have always been interested in Pontiac. Until now! I can say! If you have a interest in the G5. Go for it! You will not regret it. We absolutely love our G5.

I got my Pontiac in May brand new and it ran great until it started getting cold out. Then it decided to have problems starting.We tried jumping it and nothing happened. I have had it in the shop 3 times for the same problem. 1st they asked if I pressed the clutch in far enough, 2nd they replaced the ignition, and 3rd they replaced the starter not to mention they had to put a hose on the radiator due to a recall and fix a leak in the windshield and do some work in the transmission due to grinding when going into 4th gear. So my advice, get the extended warranty, you will need it

I no Longer will buy a GM product. i got rid of my 05 Pontiac G6 because it was falling apart at only 40,000 miles also i need a commuter car that would get better gas mileage. so first off bad gas mileage in my 08 g5. lucky to get 24 mpg higway. been in the shop about 5 time. engine sounds like a 1950 vw beetle. it all makes wind noise. also rattles and in the dash. rough shifting transmission. brakes squeak all ready. as soon as i can it is gone.
Bad car for petite/short people

This is the car from hell if you're really short. Doors are tall & long & easily bang other doors when opened. Outside rear end/trunk of car sits up high and view is also hindered by rear seat head rests and spoiler. Interior: Poor storage - has 1 shallow console "bin" and no center cup holders. Steering wheel tilts up & to ctr. level but not down. Seats are rock hard & have no cushion or give to them. Speedometer has this silly high arch in dashboard above it that makes it hard to see if you're short. If you raise seat up high to better reach steering wheel, legs are then jacked up at ackward numbing angle making it hard to reach down to pedals.
