Pontiac G6 GT

Well today I finally put my Passat in the shop to get fixed from the deer accident and for a rental car, Enterprise gave me a 2008 Pontiac G6 GT.

Honestly, I've never been a fan of Pontaics but this car is seriously a lot of fun to drive. It has amazing pick up and handles farely well. Only problem is that it feels like a tank when you are moving.

If I was still car shopping, I would seriously consider buying one.

Haha, well maybe I shouldn't have added that tank part.

Either that or I need to start using that "preview post" button. haha

lol it's cool. I've driven one and I came away fairly impressed..not really enough to consider one (hence I own a Spec V now lol), but enough to have a better opinion on it. The crazy wing and grill has to go IMO, though. Too much for too little of a car.

Yeah I worked at a Pontiac dealership for 4 years, not bad rides. I was looking at one myself when they first came out, but the first round of them weren't manual trans, so i passed up. I like what I have now though so it's all good.

What engine? If you get one, get the 3.9 and the 6-speed. Very nice tire burning combo.

Im swapping a 3.5 like the ones in the g6's into my beretta.
