2007 Pontiac G6 review from North America

None - did not keep it very long.

Stiff suspension. Not the high-tech firm kind. This one is plain cheap and choppy, like 1980s Hyundai Excel/Mitsu Precis.

Steering ratio is very quick and touchy. So are the brakes. All together this makes for a nauseating ride.

A-pillars are voluminous and block a lot of vision.

Cupholders are useless - right under the arm.

Interior is rather claustrophobic, stuffy, and smells of fresh plastic no matter how much you ventilate it.

Steering wheel is too far forward.

I turned the headrests around so they don't constantly poke the head forward. They match the seats perfectly this way too. Looks like they were designed to be turned around by the customer.

The engine is a 3.5L Chevy small V6. It has a lot of power. Overall the acceleration is the same as my '91 Buick Regal 3.1L V6 early MPFI with 4-speed electro-control AT. Same engine, but the new 1 is drive-by-wire with buffered input, so the takeoff is smoother.

G6 came with 4-speed electro-control AT with manual shift option. I'd say the 1st gear is useless except for towing or peeling out all day long. Starting in 2nd gear it pulls the same. This is 1 area where the 3.5's extra stroke contrasts with the 3.1. The Buick had a jumpier start, though it had a normal 1st gear and still could peel out.

Good fuel economy, ~28 MPG average with more highway than city. Incidentally I drove a Chevrolet Cobalt later in the week and it had identical fuel mileage.

IMHO my POS '91 Regal sedan is a better car overall. Just bigger, smoother, easier to drive, with rounder classy curves.
