Pontiac G6 GT

So today I bought a new car. Actually new to me but used with 80,000 miles on it.
It's a Pontiac G6 GT with a 3500 v6 in it. 5 speed automatic.
It's sitting on 20's with matching black/ burnt orange rims. (The car is a burnt orange color)
Of course its a leather interior and power everything. Its very sweet for only $5500.00 and only one previous owner.
Also the roll back sun roof rocks!! (As well as the stereo system it's equipped with.)
Have any of you ever owned/driven this model car? I'm absolutely loving it so far..

Well, Obama bought me a 2009 G6 with the Sports and Preferred Packages. Nothing fancy, but the stereo is pretty decent (still need to pull out the back speakers to get the borken glass out of them, so they are faded out for the time being), and it has the same 3500 V6 as the Impalas my co-workers drive. 219 horsepower provides decent acceleration, and the remote start has ensured the car ran most of the day when I was out and about. Right now I have just a bit over 6000 miles on it.

$5500 doesn't seem like too bad of a deal. What year is it?

Its a 2005. And that was very nice of Obama to buy you a car.

$5500? Good deal. Was it beat? How is the carfax? 20s sound a bit much lol. They are almost too much on my TBSS, but at least they are color matched so it probably looks decent.

The G6 GT is basically the new and improved Grand Am and they were damn good cars.

Post some pics!

$5500 is a decent price on the west coast right now so good job snagging that deal. We've actually been getting a shit load of cars shipped from CA to sell here in the midwest because the wholesale used car market right now sucks on the west coast. Too many cars and not enough buyers right now where you are, so you were in the right place at the right time for a nice deal on a mid-sized car.

Yeah I'm in Texas and this poor guy is behind on his morgage and was willing to let go of his car. The carfax are spotless and really this comes down to me being a lucky mother for once in my life.. Holy crap I finally caught a break!

when the engine blows in about 2 weeks make sure to update us

The engine aint blowing nimrod I was smart enough to put her on a rack and check her out before buying. I'm not as think as I stupid you are.

the engine will blow

If she blows half as good as you atleast I'll have gotton my monies worth.

your car engine will blow

Well it's not as douchey as XtremeYaris but it's pretty douchey.

Also, really, you're inviting a ban with this type of behavior. I already don't like you.

(maesce is right)

All in a days work.

You mean father of the year?

That's the guy!

This is a road to disaster for GM. They are done. Looking at sales volumes from the past few years will not guide the future. GMC is a redundant brand thats only viable in the commercial market. What they should have done is moved it all over to Chevrolet.

Pontiacs have been in my own house for 15 years on and off. My family Mom,Dad, Sisters, have had nothing BUT Pontiacs since 1979.

Chevrolet has its Vette and Silverado. Other than that, the line up is the blandest crap on the market. The whole reason Olds and Pontiac excelled in previous years, was the desire for a NON BLAND CHEVROLET.

I am a disgruntled GM purist. I will never buy an American made Toyota, Nissan, Honda. etc. I dont care where the parts are made or who lives in this country that assembles it.
Its still a NON AMERICAN owned company.
We all can bemoan the loss of Olds and Pontiac, but the fact is, Americans who ran GM got complacent, the Americans that bought these cars decided long ago that the foreign makes we of better quality.
Add the negative press in for good measure and we will be lucky to see 2 American car companies in existance 25 years from now
