Pontiac quietly introduced the 2007 G5 as its lowest-priced car, hoping to entice first-time buyers into the Pontiac fold. The compact two-door coupe is almost identical to the Chevy Cobalt, aside from a rear spoiler and Pontiac grille, and actually looks sportier than it really is. Base models carry an Ecotec 2.2-liter, 4-cylinder DOHC 148-hp engine, while the flashier GT is powered by an Ecotec 2.4, 4-cylinder, 173-hp engine. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard, with a 4-speed auto option.
There are plenty of standard features, including air conditioning, center console, remote entry, Driver Information center, and front airbags. The GT gets a sports suspension, ABS brakes and fog lights, as well as cruise control, a cargo net, and XM radio. Optional packages add on a sunroof, leather trim, audio controls on the steering wheel, and heated leather seats.
GM seems out of ideas with the 2007 G5, as it so closely mirrors the marginally successful Cobalt. Owners and reviewers agree there is nothing unique about the G5 to set it apart, including its price offering. The backseat is cramped, but that's what you'd expect in a coupe. There are also complaints about the quality of the interior materials and parts. On the plus side, owners says it handles well and is fun to drive, with an energetic engine. The dash is laid out well and easy to use, standard features in the GT are appreciated, and the gas mileage, at 25/34 mpg, is an added surprise.
4.5 Overall rating
(40 reviews)Sporty little compact Pontiac coupe. Very aggressive handling, steering, and acceleration. The GT trim is fully loaded with black leather seats, leather steering wheel, steering wheel controls, and power sunroof. 17 inch rims with Pirelli PZero tires for ultimate grip under hard acceleration and braking. Very good value for the money. Great performance, fuel economy and luxury in a compact coupe. - Hats off to Pontiac for keeping the sports cars soul in all of their vehicles.
Very reliable, handles well in the snow, ice and rain. Has the Sun and Sound package which is awesome! Low maintenance. Comfortable ride. Back seats fold down for more room and storage. Clean body lines give it a nice sporty look.
The G5 has amazing quality. It has many great interior freatures. The preformance is up to par with the competetion. The G5 has very low ownership costs. This is an exceptionally fun car to drive. I would reccomend this car to anyone.
cars great. strong, efficient,fast acceleration.no repairs. is very fun to drive alot quicker than most people would think. its light body makes it alot quicker than you'd expect for a car in its class. lots of space and has a decent sound system. almost a year old and still going strong
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.
