Pontiac G6 Reviews

"The suspension returns a surprisingly sporty ride, and the solid structure helps make the interior a serene place to spend time."

"Head and leg room are good in the G6, making it comfortable for a family of four."

"The brakes are a G6 strong suit, providing effective, fade-free stopping power."

"As it sits, the G6 is a car with many good pieces that don't quite realize their potential as a whole."

"If we had our druthers, we'd replace the way-bright chrome surrounds on the gauges with brushed rings and find better-shaped, more supportive seats."

"Bumps cause slight knocking in front end."

"Available Panoramic roof steals headroom, forcing taller passengers to scrunch uncomfortably."

"Equipped with this so-called sport suspension, we expected the GT to be, well, sporty. It wasn't."

"There's nothing special about the G6 engine - it's a 3.5-liter pushrod V6 with 200 horsepower and lacks the sophistication of overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder."

"A variable assist electric power steering system provides the feel of the road, although it isn't as precise as we'd hoped."

"The G6 is less impressive when stacked against the two bestsellers among midsize sedans - the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord."

"...a few cheap bits here and there keep the G6 a step below the class standards."

"The Pontiac's 3.5-liter V-6 is a typical noisy pushrod GM engine as opposed to the overhead-cam design seen in Japanese makes. That means this one growls while it runs up to speed and through the gears, while Camry and Accord are quiet."

"The badging says GT, but the steering feels as if it were crafted by carpenters..."

"Worlds better than the Grand Am it replaces, but lacks a compelling reason to buy..."
