Overview & Reviews
The G6 is an all-new midsize sedan replacement for the ancient Grand Am.
- Crisp handling, lots of rear-seat room, plenty of standard features, innovative panoramic sunroof.
- A few low-buck interior bits, panoramic sunroof takes away rear-seat headroom, down on power compared to class leaders.

Dissapointed in Pennsylvania - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Glenn Weisel - April 21 - 3:16 pmAfter buying All GM vehicles for my driving career of 36 years, I am very disappointed with my G6 GT . The styling and gas mileage are great but the build quality is awful. Currently with 59000 miles I have moisture inside the headlights , A broken drivers seat, deteriorating leather , broken hood release handle , and a bicycle caused 1100.00 damage to the left front fender which now rubs on the drivers door when opening. This is a very cheaply built car. Pontiac owes us G6 owners an additional credit toward a next car. I have never seen such horrible workmanship on a GM product.

Rating Pontiac G6GT - 2005 Pontiac G6
By M.Horn(pur for wife) - April 9 - 9:00 amWe have only had this car for two months but have thoroughly enjoyed it. A very comfortable car that rides and handles well on both highway and city streets. The 3.5 V6 is more than adequate considering the size of this car. Mileage has been averaging 22 mpg with approximately 33% of all driving on a freeway. The GT model purchased came with almost everything we wanted as standard. Back seats very comfortable with plenty of floor space. Trunk space is large and can be expanded with fold down rear seating. The car is designed with very attractive lines. At this point we are very pleased with our decision to buy it.

Excellent. - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Drusus - February 18 - 6:16 pmThe G6 is an excellent car, the best Pontiac I have ever driven. The interior is comfortable, the seats firm and supportive, controls easy to operate and read. Mine has the 6CD Monsoon system, which sounds and feels magnificent. The engine is top-notch, and the car offers a surprising amount of power. The ride is smooth and very quiet. Passenger room is at a premium. My only issue comes with the electronic steering. It transmits very little feel of the road back to the drivers hands, and is very overboosted at some speeds, while the other day in a parking lot I had almost no boost at all. Its still buggy, I think. Overall, the G6 is a great vehicle.

Pontiac G6 - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Frank E - February 18 - 8:30 amVery reliable and fun to drive. I have to drive 20 miles to work one way and needed to upgrade from an 8 mpg truck. The new G6 has gone above and beyond my expectations by getting over 22 mpg on the streets and I personally have seen over 40-55 mpg on the highway!!! The 6 speaker sounhd system on the G6 is incredible for a stock system, but 2 more speakers would be nice in the rear doors to make it surround sound.. XM radio free for 3 months, and I will be keeping it too. The in-dash cd player is a welcomed convenience in a mid- sized sedan. I love the factory remote start. My opinion of the Pontiac G6 is that GM made an awesome mid-size car suitable for a big guy like me.

Never Agian - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Never Agian - January 28 - 8:33 amI will never own a Pontiac again. After buying my Pontiac G6 it was in the shop two days later: Brakes, and seat belt not working. few more weeks and the fan motor was replaced. now Im living with a hard start. Also the radio not being on with start of car which resets all my info in the radio. For you that dont own, one your oil life, trip mileage, temp, time, security items, set radio stations and many more things. Also had the deal check my shocks, struts and brakes again. car sounds like it will fall apart when i hit bumps in road. i know i did not buy a expensive car but come on Pontiac take pride in your cars. All this and on 38,000 miles on it now. going to buy a Ford Fusion next month.

2005 G6 Gt 3.5 - 2005 Pontiac G6
By brian231 - January 10 - 7:14 pmThis was the first new car I ever own. I had all the bells and whistles. I drove this car mainly on interstate twice a month to and from work 120 miles each way. In 8 years I put 63,000 on the car 90% interstate. Feul milage averaged 31mpg. It had plenty of power pulling mountains. Car was not good in snow if roads wherent plowed good. Only issue where tires. Went threw multiple sets on rear until I found a good rubber combination. Had issues one time with sunroof leak that dealer fixed without issue. Only replaced brakes once at 50,000. Very good power to pull into traffic at interstate speed. Had radio info center repalced under warranty once.

Great First Car! - 2005 Pontiac G6
By tco_1994 - December 25 - 5:00 pmBought mine in June 2010 for my first car, it had 81,600 miles on it, Ive had it two months and its been great! and I dont drive it easy, its ramped a ditch and hit a field and nothing broke at all! my only complaint is the sunroof randomly opens as it pleases, and sometimes when it start it keep turning over instead of catching, but no big deal! Im 62" and i have the seat only 1/2 way back and it adjust so that my head doesnt hit the ceiling. I always get compliments on the exterior of it, and thats always nice too:)

The G6 is an under-rated GEM. - 2005 Pontiac G6
By RBDELI - December 21 - 1:43 amI went to the car dealership with every intention of leasing a new honda accord. I test drove a fully equipped 2005 EX-4-Cyl Accord. THe car was flawless as I expected, but nothing special and certainly not alot of fun to drive. The high payments blew me away and I told the dealer that just for kicks I wanted to look at a G6. Same dealership sold Pontiac. The moment I drove off in the G6 I wanted it. Its V6 engine blew the doors off the 4-Cyl accord and for $3K less!. It was more fun to drive in every way and infinitely better looking. I test drove the GT model, but opted for the base model which runs circles around the similarly priced Accord. I saved $100 a month and got a better car!

Dont Ever Buy a PontiC G6 - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Nene - December 12 - 6:16 amI made the horrible mistake of purchasing this car 6-7 months ago. It was pre-owned with only 16k miles. . . BIG MISTAKE, HUGE! Aesthetically, it is a dream, really cute, but if you need more that cute, this is not the car. Power steering intermittently locks up,transmissions has delayed response, horrible handling, noisy sun roof. Learned today the car has a bum cooling system that leaks. I have been at the dealership so much I should be getting benefits or something. Save yourself time, trouble, money and lost time from work. . .DO NOT BUY A PONTIAC G6. I swear I bought a prototype or maybe Pontiac should still be considered a neophyte car manufacturer

Love it - 2005 Pontiac G6
By E - November 30 - 9:20 amI had 3 grand ams in the past and this car is a huge improvement. It has more power better handling and is just fun to drive. Plus, you dont have to get the top of the line stereo to get a great sound system.
