I think its alot better than the Grand Am.....better build quality is for sure, and alot smoother/less bulky IMO.

really the only thing i dont like about it apperance wise is the moonroof....they should make a T-top....that would make it look alot better....would be interesting to see

I really like it.

Saw a coupe on the road; looked a lot like a GM interpretation of a 350Z. They have a six speed and a 260 HP motor available; a 'vert is in the works for next year.

Nice package overall.

i was gonna say the same thing...i've seen a couple from behind, and each time i thought it was a neon......i always liked how the grand am looks, it's just a dated style now.......

this is the engine info from the site:

3.9L 3900 V6 SFI with 240 hp and 241 lb-ft of torque

not too shabby, but you can get 2 more powerful engines(including the 300hp 5.3) in a grand prix, and it weighs within 200lbs of the g6 gtp.....they cost within a couple k of each other as well.....

that's all from pontiac's site, i haven't seen or heard any real world performance stuff on the g6, is the 3.9 out yet?
