Overview
2008 Pontiac G6 Value Leader Front angle medium view photo KBB Editors' Overview
As GM continues to regain its footing, Pontiac's line of sporty yet fuel-efficient cars plays a major part in the company's recovery. One of the leaders of that effort is the 2008 Pontiac G6, a midsize sedan built from a proven chassis developed in partnership with GM's European subsidiary, Opel. With the G6, Pontiac seeks to impart its trademark styling onto a vehicle providing the ride and handling characteristics so important to younger buyers. In order to lure buyers away from Volkswagen and Mazda, however, a manual transmission option should be made available on both four- and six-cylinder models, while pricing and content must remain competitive with newer entries such as the Dodge Avenger and Ford Fusion.
You'll Like This Car If... You May Not Like This Car If...
If you're in the market for a sporty domestic midsize sedan, the 2008 Pontiac G6 is right in line with the current offerings from Ford and Dodge. While the G6 offers decent handling to back up its sporty looks, the base and GT models are not terribly quick and feature slow-shifting automatic transmissions as standard equipment. Interior plastics are not up to the standards set by Mazda, Volkswagen and Honda.
What's New for 2008
The GXP becomes the new top-of-the-line trim (replacing the GTP), while front-seat-mounted side-impact airbags, anti-lock brakes (ABS), traction control and OnStar are made standard across the line.
