Nice Econobox — Little bit of go, whole lot of show. Amazing looks compared to base model. Decent acceleration. 35 miles per gallon usually. Low maintenance. Few problems. Great to drive, fun to roll with the windows down and the sunroof open. JOY!

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

Cons

-can't think of any

Not Bad For The Price — Nice little 4 cyl. Good on gas. Runs smooth. But being a pontiac - will probably die out in 5th year. Not bad though....price cheap! Nice little vehicle for day to day local trips - not too bad on the highway either.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Good 8 Out Of 10 — I like how the car handles, and it has nice pick-up for a 4 cyclinder. The only thing I don't like is the space, because there virtually is none. The car is very fun to drive, and it is a pretty overall cheap car. Gas milage is like 23mpg, or something close to that, it's very economic.

Pros

Front wheel drive, cruise control, tire pressure warnings, a net to catch your things in the trunk, and power windows.  Plus it's a blast to drive!  

Cons

Daytime running lamps turn on when started which I don't like and have to remember to turn off.

I Love This Car. — I basically chose this car for its appearance and was pleasantly surprised when great handling, enough pep, and good gas milage came with it. My G5 is averaged to get 24 city mpg and 32 highway mpg but they can actually get more or less depending on driving conditions and driver. Mine, which is pretty new (only about 2,000-3,000 miles on her), gets over 30 and of course will get better once she's broken in more. It has a 2.2 Liter L4 engine and goes up to 140 mph though I've only taken it to 110 mph (it handled great by the way). It also has satelite radio, a jack for your ipod, remote keyless entry and starter, tach, and a nifty info thing on its dash which tells you; miles, trip miles, oil life, coolant temp, average speed, mpg, and other things like possibilities of ice on the road.

Amazing gas mileage (32-34 MPG Highway), great handling, awesome sound system, all around a great vehicle.

Great, Fuel Efficient Vehicle! — I loved the whole car. Great gas mileage, sporty looking, great handling, great stereo system, loved the sunroof. Just a fun car all around! The cons were just the back seat, it was a little small if you were wanting to go on long trips with more than two people. The backseat is perfect for smaller kids, because they don't need a whole lot of leg room/head room. I would definitely recommend this car!!

Miss G5 — I love the g5, its a nice looking car. It has good accelaration and more power then it looks like it has. Car has really good gas miliage. The car is sporty looking for a 4 door and is fun to drive with a 5 speed manual.

Overall Good Car — The pontiac g5 is the basic model of the cobalt but to me is much more sylish then the cobalt.with a little money and some upgrades will definitly be a great performance car and lighter then the cobalt.it may be cheaper to just buy the ss cobalt for performance but it takes all the fun out of bringing the base to a supercharged status. I love this car and will never trade or sell.

Sweet! — My car is actually a 2006 but this APP wouldn't let me pick a year older than 2007. My car is a zippy little 5-speed and great on gas. It is black and looks pretty darn slick when she's clean.

Incredible, I Recommend It — It's over-all amazing. So much sleeker than the Cobalt, and for the same price as an LS, you get LT options. The 5-speed is nice, as long as you haven't abused it, because then you start having problems. And, it's not as common, so it's not the same car as everyone else has rolling around.
