Love the yellow, Im 6ft 1, 280 lbs and this car fits great. its fun to drive, not what I expected a commuter to be. Controls easy to use, radio good, ride good, road noise very low, build quality good. dont like the light material on the seats and doors, should have bought darker. just hope I can keep my lic. My Son wants this car, wants to dump his old civic.. so why do the car critics trash this car?? I would buy another one.
Great looking Medium size car Boring inside

It's a great looking car outside but the same designers did not work inside. It's all gray vinyl inside. No leather, cloth or exciting colors. The driver's side is fine and the fuel, speed gadgets are sporty and go well with the outside of the car. It is fun to drive. I like the car.

The worst care I have EVER owned.

I cannot WAIT to get rid of this car. It is simply the worse car I have ever owned. I've had the ignition replaced on recall TWICE. At less than 78,000, I've had to replace the brakes at 63,000 (I owned 3 Cavaliers and NEVER had to replace the brakes this early). I've replaced one wheel bearing and the other needs replaced (again, never had that issue on any other vehicle I've owned). Basically, the front end is shot. The body is rusting through on the doors, hood, and trunk. It is simply horrible in snow, rain and wind. The front stereo speakers stopped working within 2 years of ownership. The car is noisy, cramped. I will say the engine itself is good. Just everything attached to it is simply horrible.

I finally bought this car after reading reviews and staring at pictures of it over a course of 2 years and it's precisely the car I wanted. Coming from a 2003 basic model of a Saturn Ion it's a huge upgrade and great for someone my age (22).
Nice car for the price

Needed a new vehicle to use primarily to run around town that would be economical. Noticed the G5 on Pontiac web site. Sticker on vehicle we purchased was over $22500, but GM knocked off $2500 from the start, plus another $2500. off with incentives. The vehicle is a silver GT model which is well loaded (XM radio, remote start, sunroof, automatic, etc.) It rides nice, handles well on 17" rims and is comfortable. It is small interior wise, but we knew that going in. It seems well-built and the whole family is well pleased with it. It may not have a "pure-bred" pedigree since it's basically a Cobalt, but it is much nicer than we'd anticipated! We are glad we gave it a look.
