Pontiac G6

Pontiac G6 in red color


A new G6 is likely to depreciate quickly now that the model has It shares parts with other midsize cars like the Chevy Malibu and Buick LaCrosse -- so it should be relatively simple to maintain a G6 even after the model leaves showrooms. Other GM dealers will service this car. Pontiac's fate shouldn't necessarily scare away buyers. See our best car deals page for current offers.



In the current economic climate, those cars can often be found at a discount. Those interested in an American-made midsize sedan might want to consider the more refined Chevrolet Malibu or Ford Fusion instead. And few consider its interior class-competitive. Some like the handling of the G6, though not in convertible form. But reviewers say all but the most expensive engine make the car feel sluggish off the line.



Available as a coupe, a sedan or a hardtop convertible, with three engine options, the G6 can be ordered in many different configurations. Those currently on dealership lots are the last of the line -- though that may make it easy to negotiate a deal. The G6 is doomed -- General Motors has announced plans to shut down the Pontiac brand at the end of 2009, and has already stopped building the G6. Underpowered, with a substandard interior, it trails most of the midsize class -- but is often available at a considerable discount. The automotive press was neither impressed nor offended with the G6. The Pontiac brand is due to disappear from American roads this year, and the 2009 Pontiac G6 with it, Moreover : Dodge Trucks

Pontiac G8 GT with 557 bhp by APS

APS, the specialist tuning house with over 25 years of turbo tuning, has turned a Pontiac G8 into something of a Pontiac GR8 (or great). Realizing some potential in the 6.0-litre V8 used in the G8, APS then got to grips with it by installing an intercooled twin turbo system, which is cleverly mounted under the chassis so heat moves away from the engine. Clever yes, if you live in a town with no speed humps and other road oddities.

What power then? How’s about 557 bhp on the trot? And torque? That’s 583.8 ftlb. It’s good figures by any measure, and APS says its system ensures access to all this munchy power and delivers through quite a flat range. The intercoolers work hard to cool things down such that APS claims a quarter mile run twice or more up and down the straight will not even sweat its G8 system.

So those who own VXR8s and HSV Clubsport R8s will be welcome at APS to see how much further things can go. APS themselves reckon there’s quite a few more horses stored under the ‘hood here and perhaps in time it may all come home to roost.
