Overview & Reviews

The 2007 Pontiac G5 is a clone of the Chevy Cobalt coupe, which means that it shares just about everything with its platform mate, save the grille and its Pontiac markings.

• Respectable acceleration from either powertrain, smooth and quiet ride, good crash test scores.

• Cheap interior plastics, cramped backseat, lack of interior storage, dull handling.

  Get in your Pontiac and ride! - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By Stan - January 1 - 5:43 pm

  We looked at and tried a lot of cars, but didnt care for them. My wife suggested that we go to a Pontiac dealer and see what they had. I had never seen a G5, didnt know they existed. The G5 is a real sleeper. It makes you want to throw rocks at the other cars, especially those overrated Asian cars that people are so proud of. Phooey! When I saw the American G5, I knew it was right. I was so certain about this car that I bought it outright without driving it first. My wife and I love it. Its everything we want in a car. We are so glad that we found it. This sport coupe has class. The boring Asian cars have no more charm than kitchen appliances.

  Love My New G5 - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By Silver Wolf - October 26 - 3:36 am

  I purchased my new Pontiac G5 on 9/30/06 and I love it! It is fun to drive and handles really well. The CD/radio sound is especially awesome. It is easy to park in small spaces with the manual transmission.

  Nothing But Trouble - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By Matthew Oliver - July 8 - 1:16 pm

  Everyone in my area that has a G5 has the same trouble.My car has 40000kms and I t has been back for strut boots,linkage kits in front end twice,brake trouble which they cant seem to figure out what is causing it,heater blower motor twice,door strikers on both sides,manual transmission shifter trouble,control arm bushings,Electric motor coil(which was only fixed for a couple of days now causing trouble again)radio and signal lights come on and off on their own(no one seems to know why)overall I would recommend to stay away from it.I was told by the dealership that the G6 has the same troubles so stay away from that too.My father has a 2000 Mazda Protege brought new and never had a hitch yet.

  A lot better than a Cobalt - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By Chris - June 29 - 10:26 am

  The engine is a bit thrashy while its being gunned. The gas mileage is superb for a 4 cylinder that makes this kind of power. Overall a great value compared to the Tiburon GT, Civic Si, and Mazda 3s.

  Favorite Car Yet - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By BlueShark13 - May 25 - 4:46 pm

  A fun car to drive. Its very sporty and has great pickup for only having a 4cylinder. My fiance is always bugging me to let her drive it as well. Overall, a great car and my favorite yet of the 4 cars I have owned.

  Excellent Car! - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By Stryker - March 2 - 2:53 pm

  This is my first brand new car, and I couldnt be happier. The engine performs great on the highway, as well as in the city. The heated leather seats are nice in the cold Colorado weather. And it handles better than most cars Ive driven. I cant think of another car that even compares to this one in the same price range.

  Not a very good design. - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By RRRR - January 18 - 6:33 am

  I have owned this car for about two weeks and have driven it about 1000 miles. The car sounds like it has a window open when driven over 45mph. You can hear the air rush over the radio it is so bad. The steering wheel has shaking problems when I step on the breaks. The trunk opening is very small which is a drawback to the big space inside it. I was promised a cruise control for it only to find the EVS dealer is putting on an aftermarket version with no warranty. This car is a terrible car in all of these respects.

  I love this car - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By 07g5gt - December 3 - 10:16 pm

  This is my sec time posting about my car. I first posted when I got the car. Now I have had the car a year and it has 10k on it. I just took my car on vacation and we drove over 3000 miles in less then 3 days. On the highway with 4 people in the car, all our stuff in the trunk and the ac on max I got 32.5 mpg at 75 mph. After I got back I wanted to run the car at the track to see its 1/4 time so I did and with me, my uncle and a full tank of gas, it ran a 15.7 at 88 mph. This car has taken all the abuse I have given it and with it being my first 5-speed car ever its been one hell of a car. Its never been in for warranty work and I definitely will be buying another Pontiac after this one.

  Great car! - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By Andy - November 15 - 3:20 am

  Ive had my G5 GT for almost a year and a half and love it. It is always a head turner, and hardly anyone else has one. The only problems Ive had is a broken sunroof switch, replaced under warranty, and a glitch in the keyless entry that others have noted. This was my first new car, and I couldnt be happier.

  metallic blue nights - 2007 Pontiac G5
  By michelle barrett - September 6 - 5:23 am

  i wanted a sporty car , but needed a family car. I got both when i bought this car 7 days ago. It has everything a family of 5 could need and all the sportiness a single woman or man could want. I would not trade this car for anything in the world.
