Fun To Drive In The Summer!!! — The Pontiac G6 GT is a great car to drive in the summer. It is reliable in the winter. It has a great view from the panoramic sunroof giving it the feel and look of a convertible. However, the alignment is off quite often and the sunroof can be very noisy on the highway or driving in high winds. But overall a great car to drive if you live in the city and want to show it off to your man or women!

Great Beginner Car/family Car — I love the car as a whole, it is my second one. Everything always runs beautifully no matter the miles on it. It has a large sunroof that's great for the summer, but also is a great car in the snow even though it's only fwd.

This car is a lot of fun to drive, open the sunroof turn up the radio and forget about everything!

Have Some Fun!! — This car is a great investment if you're looking for something fun. It handles great and rides like a dream. The 6 disc cd changer is great to have, it helps give you more of a hands free variety in music. The windows have a nice tint on them and they do a good job at keeping the brightness from the sun out. It's just a great car.

Great First Car, Fun To Drive. — The G6 has great mid range acceleration and OK top speed with the limiter set to 120 mph for the 2005 and 2007. Panoramic sunroof is a great feature but is problematic. Handling is a dream with 4-wheel independent suspension and with great tire that car is nearly impossible to get it to trouble. Gas mileage is great with numbers varying between 25-31 mpg. The build quality is great for a first year car. I really enjoy the stock stereo which is unbelievable for stock. Its just overall fun to own and even more fun to drive.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

overall fun to drive! peppy and comfortable

Cons

parts cost an arm and a leg to purchase

I Love It! — i love my car, its peppy, and i find it very comfy to drive in. it is kinda cheaply made though. considering we went through a puddle of slush and ripped off the bumper. lol i love the over all style and speed of the car. i honestly have to say it would be better if i would have got the 6 sp. standard with the sunroof :P :) handling is amazing! gas milage is average, better on highways. maintenance is a downfall for parts. the wheel baring just went in ours and it was $473 for the part through GM, but ended up getting the part for $263. but overall i have to give my car a 5 star rating due to the fact that every car, truck or suv is going to break and have its downfalls, but i love the style, speed, and comfort of the car. i think in my opinion it is a fun little car to drive. :)
