Great Car for the money

I have had this car for 5 months now and I love it. Love the full moonroof, power from the 6, power steering etc. Only thing wrong with it is due to the power of the 6 and my lead foot it does not handle well in the New England snow!!

"Electrical Nightmare"

I bought this car used in Feb. 06 with 28,000 miles. I also drive about 72 miles(all highway) roundtrip to work 3-4 days a week. I have had nothing but problems with this car, there is a recall on the electronic rack and pinoin steering, i am on my 3rd radio, 4th set of visors, the rear passenger window mower motor went out. There is an extended start problem with the ignition that after about 7 trips to the dealership still can't be pinpointed. Then most recently said "power reduced" then wouldn't start. All I have to say is BUY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY.But I love the way it drives, it is smooth on the highway yet still handles good in the city. Maybe I just got a "bad one" but I would not recommend this car to anyone except maybe my enemies.

Best Spluxury Car I've Driven

As a consumer who regularly test drives cars for fun, I was completely impressed by every feature of the G6. It has the feel and styling of a luxury car on the inside, with the look and performance of a sports car on the outside. The cockpit is very driver-oriented, especially love the way the computer system tracks everything and alerts you when your fluids are low or its almost time for an oil change. I've owned the car for about 6 months now and have not had a single problem with it, not even in the middle of winter in Nova Scotia.

I absolutely LOVEEEE this car! It is hot!

This is the best car I have ever owned. I would highly recommend it. I agree with the guy above about the panoramic sunroof.... it is like having a convertible.... I love it!

Fantastic!!!!!!

I love my G6. This is the best car I've owned. Before this I had a 1999 Grand Am, this blows it out of the water. The panoramic roof is so cool! I use it all the time. For those who want a car with great style, and is light on your wallet, the G6 is something you should 135% consider.

2005 Pontiac GS sedan

lots of problems with the brakes- severe vibrations due to rotors Power Steering failure- this car comes with the new electic Power steering- it completely failure at 44000Km. It was under warranty at the time. The failure would still allow you to drive the car but you needed really strong arms to do it!
