This Year's Model Updates:

For the 2007 Pontiac G6, there are substantial under-the-skin changes. The GTP version, which is now offered as a coupe or sedan only, is powerful this year, thanks to a new, all-aluminum 3.6-liter V6 with variable valve timing. The engine produces 252 horsepower and is matched to a new six-speed automatic transmission. The engine in last year's GTP, a 3.9-liter V6, is now an upgrade option for the GT trim. Pontiac has also increased the output for the GT's standard 3.5-liter V6 by 23 hp this year (16 hp for convertible models). Other G6 changes for 2007 include expanded availability of side curtain airbags, hydraulic power steering for GT models (versus the former numb-feeling electric power setup) and a couple of new sport- and luxury-themed packages.

Pros:
  • Spacious rear seat, peppy yet fuel-efficient V6 engines, sporty suspension tuning, retractable hardtop in convertible model, available panoramic sunroof in sedan.
Cons:
  • Some low-grade interior plastics, numb electric steering in base sedan, panoramic sunroof eats up rear-seat headroom.

  • Lots of fun with My G6 - 2007 Pontiac G6
    By -

    This is the first time i have ever purchased a vehicle and, was very impressed with my purchase. I have seen the commercials and was instantly impressed. When i first sat in the car for the test drive and stepped on the gas i thought to myself " i have to have this car. The roomy bucket seats and the nice and smooth ride left me speechless and comfort should be defined as Pontiac g6.

  • I hate this car!!!! - 2007 Pontiac G6

    I will never buy a pontiac again, or refer anyone to buy one. Its no wonder they are out of buisness. I bought this car brand new in late 2006 and I have had nothing but problems with it. Ive had to replace all of the tires twice, the brakes twice, the blinker, the headlights, and fuel pump. Ive had to fix the A/C and the A/C is out again already. Ive had to get a new battery three times, and had to replace the starter. I could go on and on with things that have had to be replaced. People always think I get such great gas mileage but I only get about 19 miles per gallon. This car has cost me so much money. Do not buy this car!

    I keep up the maintenance on it and I drive it with care. I have not had any of the brake and rotor problems that I read about. I did have a loose screw in my brake caliper and something was wrong with my rack and pinion that was covered under my warranty. The seats are hard and unsupportive. The plastic on my factory radio buttons has peeled off from normal use and until the motor warms up it has trouble switching gears (since I hit 60,000 miles). I get great gas mileage though around 28 MPG. Also due to the design, the back doors stay dirty and I cant keep them clean. I would recommend this car, but dont buy one new or you will be 8-10k upside down as soon as you drive off the lot.

  • Great car for the price - 2007 Pontiac G6

    Purchased value leader sedan. Sure, I want a better car but this is all I really need and with the rebates, no car is more affordable, no way. Has all the basic features, performs well even with the 4 cyl and is reliable.

  • My midlife crisis car - 2007 Pontiac G6

    I have been enjoying this car since the day I got it as a birthday present from my hubby! Great looking car, people definitely stop and look. I put on custom chrome wheels and the chrome package on my black G6...looks great. Love the monsoon sound system. I live in the desert so I can put the top down almost every day.

  • I love my G6 - 2007 Pontiac G6

    I have been very happy with my 2007 G6 V6 Sedan so far. No problems so far and I love to drive it. It is responsive, quick and quiet. The controls all feel good and they are so simple without gimmicks and complexity. The stereo system sound great too. I average right at 25 mpg with moderate driving. The exterior fit and finish could be better but it is acceptable. I would recommend this car for the price for sure.

  • Better Hardtop - 2007 Pontiac G6
    By -

    I have been looking for a HT/convertible since owning the Ford Sunliner. This car is so much fun to drive and I stole it from the dealer. It is fun to drive and great with the top down. Had a rag top and you guessed it, the top got cut and it rotted. So much for rag tops. Now I am so happy with my convertible and if it turns out to be lemon I dont care. I will love it anyway. My son and I love it and now he wants me to buy him one. The top movement is so smooth and no problems like the Sunliner had. Tubes/switches bad

  • Good car for little cost - 2007 Pontiac G6
    By -

    Bought mine used for a song. Perfect car for commuting 25 miles with mostly LA freeway traffic. Gas mileage is very good if you drive reasonably. In the first year I put on 35,000 miles and hav no complaints about quality or drivability. My wife thinks it looks better than most of the smaller sedans on the road--it doesnt look like everything else out there. Overall a very underrated car.

  • Good Choice - 2007 Pontiac G6
    By -

    Under $30k with all the options, including the bigger engine. Try that in a Solara or a Eos, or a BMW....all of which were considerations for me. The Pontiac guys are so hungry they give these away at invoice, less rebates. I like the 100,000 mile warranty.. The car is zippy around town, quiet on the freeway, and there is plenty of room for two in the back seat. I have had better cars, but none for under $50k.

  • Glad I choose this one - 2007 Pontiac G6

    I purchased this car to replace a 2003 Mazda 6 w/ 190K miles. I can not get over how happy I am with my purchase. Who said base model cars have to be stripped down or cheap? Not this one! The car handles like it should cost more and its so quiet and torquey you wont even realize youre blowing by posted speed limits like its nothing. Although I bought it used with 15K miles on it, I still have the remainder of the factory warranties and a vehicle that in my opinion outperforms the Mazda in all aspects it makes me dread driving my wifes boring 2007 Toyota Camry. If anyone is in the market for a solid built midsize car dont neglect checking out the G6, it will surprise you.
