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.

Driving a 2005 Pontiac G6 - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Brandy Bohn - August 11 - 4:26 pmI could never have a better vehicle. I'm at 330k+ miles on my Pontiac G6 and she runs like a champ! With regular maintenance and up keep your Pontiac could last this long too!

Better than Grand Am - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Jery S - November 30 - 9:20 pmThis car is fun to drive. Great mileage, good acceleration and cornering. The ride is stiff with some road noise and a little wind noise. The tires take a cold set in cold weather which makes the tires feel like they are out of balance until they warm up after about 5 miles. Have some rattles which the dealer corrected. The electric steering feels a little numb but transmits vibration back to the driver. I expected more from this model.

Great car - 2005 Pontiac G6
By ed - October 13 - 7:10 amI bought this car used about a month ago and smile every time I look at it. It is very fun to drive and the steering is so light you can turn it with one finger. There is enough acceleration for me and still gets in the high 20s for gas mileage. I also like how it is so quiet even at speeds above 70. I live in central Minnesota so the remote start and traction control is a great option to have. The sound system is great even for being the base system. The driver information center is a nice feature, it has avg speed, mpg, oil life, and others. The back seat is enormous even for taller people. This is a great car and if you need a sporty car that is very reliable this is it.

2005 V6 G6 - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Cafasco - September 19 - 6:00 pmLast week, I traded in my 05 Acura RSX for a 05 v6 G6 std. sedan. It only had 2,842 miles on it. In comparing the two, I really like the G6 a whole lot better. Interior fit and finish is actually better than the Acura (I was surprised by squeaks and rattles in the RSX). Exterior F & F is close, but not quite there. Im getting 31MPG in mixed suburban driving and 34MPG @85mph on the highway. My RSX got 33/36mpg. I have a hell of a lot more room and an AT. G6 Radio reception BLOWS away the Acura as does the sound quality (both have six speaker systems). The G6 handles well, but not as tight as the RSX, which was actually “work” to drive. G6 steering is a touch vague against the RSX.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Lorie - September 18 - 12:33 pmMy husband and I started looking at this car before it was available. We finally got to purchase it in Nov. Dealerships in our area didnt receive until then. I will tell you this! IT WAS WELL WORTH THE WAIT!!! We have almost 4000 miles on it already and I still want to just go everywhere and anywhere, just to drive it.

I like this car! - 2005 Pontiac G6
By clairissa - September 18 - 10:00 amThis is the second Pontiac I have owned. First was a Pontiac Grand Am GT 2 door sport coupe. It was a sporty looking vehicle, but definitely not practicel. The G6GT model offers both sportiness with practicality. Definitely a fun car to drive, handles well and gets good gas mileage. Im definitely very happy with my decision.

Im Impressed! - 2005 Pontiac G6
By M. Hobby - September 15 - 6:23 pmIm impressed with my new G6. This is my first Pontiac and I was a little apprehensive in purchasing a first year model. Ive had a few first year vehicles that have caused me nightmares. The feel is above my expectations and more! I love driving my new G6 and the LA traffic isnt so bad with the stereo system. I get a lot of approving looks and have been told that it looks like a BMW or some other over priced vehicle. Thanks Pontiac!

My grown up car - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Brenda23236 - September 10 - 10:33 pmI bought my G6 because I wanted a "grown-up" car with bells and whistles that was responsible and safe. I am insurance-cost conscious and I wanted it to be young and fun. I found all of these things in my purchase. It is the best thing I have done for myself in a long time!

Love it! - 2005 Pontiac G6
By Lauren - July 5 - 1:26 pmI owned a convertible Beetle before the G6 and I am so glad I made the trade! I bought a silver 2005 GT sedan with 16k miles. Although I miss the convertible, I love my G6. I consistently get 25 mpg city and 34+ highway; I got around 18 city in a 4 cyl Beetle. Very spacious and comfy. Handles great and its very fun to drive. Doesnt feel like a sedan at all. The Beetle felt like a $25k go- kart compared to the G6.
