Regardless of model, the pontiac delivers a sporty driving experience. Spring for the GT if you are a serious driving enthusiast. Otherwise, you may find the standard V6 more comfortable. It's smooth and very stable.

What's not to love.

This is the most fun car to drive I have had in a long time, and we lease two new cars every 2-1/2 to 3yrs. I traded in a 2004 Grand Prix GTP (it was totaled in a wreck) with the super charger, and this G6 is just as fast exept for the high speed passing. Everyone that see's it say they love it, young and old. I am 62 and I love it. I have seen pitcher's of the hard- top converable they are going to make, and when my lease is up on this one I entend to lease a loaded one of them. Everone that see's it just love's it. Everyone that see's the sunroof open ask's to see how it look's in the different posisions.

Great fuel economy can be found on the 2005 Pontiac G6 GT. This sporty mid- size consistently averages 30 to 32 mpg. The car has plenty of pep when asked and handles the road tight and crisp. The sport suspension is a bit stiff but is expected. The rear seat leg room is spacious and the new panoramic sunroof is an absolute must have option. (It is like driving a convertable with the windows up when the roof is fully opened). The leather seating option includes all the bells and whistles to satisfy even the most demanding buyer. The G6 GT is a pleasure to drive and well worth the price tag of $28,000.00 fully equipped.

Competent and looks good.

This car flat out looks good, and more importantly looks better than most of the competition, save the Altima. The V6 has good enough power for most use outside of drag racing, and the interior looks a lot better in person than it does in pictures. Handling is good for a midsize sedan, and braking is a non-event, which is a good thing. Seat comfort is very good for long trips with just the right amount of hardness in the seats. Backseat legroom is quite good, and without the panoramic sunroof, most 6 footers won't feel like you're subjecting them to torture in the back seat. The stereo on the GT is fantastic- 8 speakers, and some of the best sound in it's class.

MY G6

I love the styling of this vehicle. It has good crisp lines and the color i bought, stealth gray, is easy to keep clean and looking great. Driving in the colorado mountains has been a delight with this vehicle. It climbs right up the mountain for me. Being a short legged person, i especially like the controls that bring the brake and gas pedal up to me rather than having to sit on top of the steering wheel to drive. Overall, i am very pleased with the vehicle.

G6 is a hit

I will admit to being partial to GM and in many cases that is grounds to discount my comments, however, I have driven many cars and the G6 is a superb vehicle by any measure. In comparison, my fathers 05 Camry is generic, plain and in some cases cheaper feeling. The G6 will impress anyone, if given a chance. The design inside and out is elegant and well proportioned.

Junk it

Like most of the reviews, my G6 was bought new. It rattles, shakes so bad that I am afraid to drive it. Sun roof leaks and rattles. The interior design is very cheap. I also bought a new Grand Prix two months later, big difference. My lease expires next month and I am sure I will get boned my GMAC with them having to fix all of the broken crap that should have never failed in the first place. What a cheap piece of junk.

I bought this car used with about 48,000 and am now at 118,000. I have had no major issues with this car. There are certain things that annoy me though. Occasionally if I insert the key and start the car right away it stalls. I call the dealership and they said that was "normal." As a result of that I have adapted to turning the key to ACC and letting the car "prepare" for a few seconds and then starting the car. Also the Cd changer reads "Cd changer error" at random times. If you need new brakes get them fast. Otherwise it feels as though the car can't support it's own weight! Other than that I have greatly enjoyed this car. I have taken many successful road trips and always get looks....

New model, great experience

This is a new mid size line that we found to be excellent for driving in the city and on freeways. There is more than adequate room and comfort for each passenger and everything for the individual driver is adjustable for his/her comfort, ability to see speedometer and gauges, and pedal reach. Very economical to drive with the assistance of a drivers information center, we are getting 24mpg in city conditions. It handles very well on any road condition we have experienced to date. This car is very well designed and there is no loss of head room in the back seat with the normal sun roof. We are very pleased with the G6 GT.
