Reviews SummaryMidsize sedans are efficient, reliable, and practical. These attributes are what make them so popular. But if you crave a bit more excitement in your family sedan, the 2008 Pontiac G6 has got you covered. The G6 delivers bold styling and powerful, available V6 engines. It also offers a Coupe variant, as well as an innovative power-retractable hardtop convertible. This design combines top-down motoring, as well as confident four-season protection from the elements. | |
Reviews SummaryBMW’s best-selling car enjoys a mid-cycle refresh for 2023. Sleeker styling, an updated driver-oriented cockpit, and loads of new technology make the new BMW 3 Series sports sedan as competitive as ever. | |
