Overview & Reviews

For 2009, a six-speed automatic transmission is added to the base four-cylinder Pontiac G6's options list, boosting highway fuel economy to 33 mpg. Satellite radio is now standard on all G6 models, while the trim levels and options packages have been rearranged slightly. Power-adjustable pedals are no longer available.

• Low-grade interior plastics, cramped rear headroom, numb steering in base sedans, lackluster brakes, zero cargo space with convertible top retracted, poor fuel economy with 3.9-liter V6, disappointing convertible crash test ratings.

  Great deal on a fun car! - 2009 Pontiac G6
  By Julius McCarthy - January 15 - 7:16 pm

  I have had this car for 4 months now and am very happy. The car rides exceptionally well, is fun to drive, and smooth on the freeway. The 4-cyl engine is adequate for my needs and gets fairly good gas mileage. I love the sunroof and the car looks great with the rear spoiler. This is my first car with Onstar and the navigation turn by turn directions are very convenient, especially when looking for a particular restaurant around town. Overall, this car has great value and Im pleased with my purchase.

  Good value for domestic car - 2009 Pontiac G6
  By George - December 13 - 2:30 am

  We bought the car in June 09 with 5000 miles on it (as a demo) we have put 20,000 more very few issues. Ours has the 2.4 L 4 cyl and 6 speed auto trans, it gets in the low 30s on long distance trips, mid 20s around town 50/50 mix of fwy and city driving. No major issues so far, most recent problem has been some brake issues, but seems to be solved with new pads. The turn signal stalk came loose, replaced under warranty. Only other issue, a speck of rust has started on the trunk lid, will be repaired under warranty also. The car has a muffled rattle in the headliner, our Malibu had one too. This car was loaded up with all of the stuff you could get on a 4 cyl model. Its a keeper.

  One little problem - 2009 Pontiac G6
  By masmad - January 15 - 10:00 am

  I have had my G6 for about 5 months now and it has 25,000 miles on it. It seems that around the front end where the motor is there is a clunking noise, sounds like the front end is going to drop out. It has nothing to do with the engine it is something else and we cant figure out what it is?..I am a little upset about this problem..

  The "Experts" Missed One! - 2009 Pontiac G6
  By George - August 15 - 4:36 pm

  I have owned this car for 14 months, accumulating 12,000 miles with NO mechanical issues and I could not be more pleased. This cars 3.6 liter engine is FAST, its sporty looks get loads of compliments and it averages as much as 27.5 mpg on the highway and 22 mpg overall! The car handles well, has a satisfying but not obtrusive engine note and came fully equipped with leather interior, moonroof,auto climate control, 6 CD changer, power drivers seat and 6 speed auto/manual trans. For all this, I paid under $21,800! Too bad GM killed Pontiac; this car was a sleeper!

  Best Car Ever! - 2009 Pontiac G6
  By PontiacG6 - February 2 - 10:00 am

  I wasnt planning on getting a G6 but when we test drove one at the dealership I fell in love with it. It rides so amazingly, it has every feature I would want and more. The inside is so roomy and it is very sleek looking. It looks great on the outside too. It only gets about 21 mpg but to be honest I could car less because I just love it so much. Seriously best car I have ever owned, too bad Pontiac was discontinued.

  By Cindy - January 20 - 2:50 am

  Bought this for our 17 year old daughter, great safety and reliability ratings plus she loves the look along with its comfort in the front and back. Received the highest reliability ratings from consumer reports and Five Stars from the govt crash test ratings.

  2009 G6 Coupe is sweet ride - 2009 Pontiac G6
  By D - August 6 - 7:53 am

  I used to have a toyota corolla. It was really boring. I just bought this used former rental 09 G6 coupe with leather, sunroof, and alloys a couple months ago for pretty cheap. I have to disagree with the Edmunds review. I love it. The exterior coupe looks sporty, the leather seats are comfortable and have good support, and it rides like a dream. I am getting 27 mpg mixed driving with the V6 3.5. I love the power. It feels good to drive an American car that has a lot of power, gets good gas mileage, and is fun to drive.
