Leased this car couple of weeks ago…drives pretty good infact everyone said it does not feel like a GM car… i noticed the exterior is a mixture of Accord and Acura TL and interior is inspired by the new mustang with black and red. its pretty spacious. It has got some neat feature plus the deal i was getting was far better than the other ones i ak looking in to including ALTIMA, MAZDA 6 and FORD ESCAPE. I did not even bother looking in to CAMRY and ACCORD cuz they were pretty expensive and ofcourse not fancy at all.
its the V6 3.5 one with 200HP but is definately a gas guzzler.
Re: Pontiac G6
That’s one thing that’s always amazed me about GM cars - how their engines are so big but so weak for their size.
I just bought a used Volvo S60. Despite having technology that’s over 5 years old, its engine still makes 197hp from just 2.4 litres and 5 cylinders.
Re: Pontiac G6
i dunno man i test drove many cars and they all were trying to prove their technologies were the best and being not so good at all this i was just shaking my head. i know that these cars are only good for the first 5 years and they start giving you problems but still their maintenance is pretty cheap compared to the japanese cars.
I personally was not even considering a North American car but i knew that i wanted to lease a car with min. down and only for 4 yrs and the fact that gas was not a problem i went for this one. their lease rate was also 1.25% compared to 3.7% lowest from MAZDA. I am not sure about the insurance but i have heard that its lower for the NA cars.
congrats MS for the car....i hope you have not been speeding around on the T.O streets :)
