Pontiac didn’t go out of business, gm decided to quit the Pontiac line as GM owns Pontiac. I have a mint condition 2007 G6 GT convertible with only 93k and I love it
Wow your car sounds like a nice, low mileage car. Convertible is nice as well. I'm trying to get a chance to film a Pontiac G6 this week. its a sedan with the big V8 motor. As long as the dealership still has it I'll get filming it tomorrow hopefully. Please sub to the channel so you can see the film when its on here. thanks, Chad
GM also stop production of Saturn’s
@@CarolinaCarVideos based off your observation do you think the pontiac g6 gt is faster than a maxima?
Same bro I love it
I got a 2007 g6 gt sedan and its sick nothing has went wrong with it
Just bought a 07 for $600 ... best purchase in my existence lol
These cars are ghosts dude, people ignore you until they realize how much of a sleeper they are excluding the 4cyl ver. Even the sedan is snappy asf
I really have nothing but praise for these vehicles... I crashed my 2009.5 into a ditch at about 80k miles, bent up the frame and messed up the front suspension. Kinda fixed the frame, replaced my whole front suspension and whole cooling system.
At 124k miles its still going strong and the only issue I have is the radio display sometimes goes black but the sound system is really good.
They are tanks for what they are. We have a 2009.5 ourselves that just passed 200K miles and it is still going strong. AC no longer works but still, that can be fixed.
Had an '07 G6, was a nice car. A lot of bang-for-the-buck is what the Pontiac brand was known for. Spend just a little more than what you would for a Chevy, and with Pontiac you got a more upscale car with options included.
Gonna buy this car in the morning as my first car
Good choice
I have a black 2009 Pontiac g6 gt convirtibke with the 3.9l v6 ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT 116,000 miles strong only major things were the struts that’s all but it’s a great car very reliable I live in North Dakota and it’s been very cold in the -30s lately abd it always starts!!
I have a black 2009 G6 GT coupe. 52K miles :) I baby it.
Keep you G6, it is rare because Pontiac is gone
I own a black 07 G6 GT VERT 3.9L
Its definitely an attention getter😊I love my car. It has this low humm to it like some of the muscle cars i hear. But its pretty decent considering all the weight it has to pull with the verts
hey fellow north dakotan 😂👋
I have an 07 g6 got convertible. I payed 3,800 for it, and it’s the best car I’ve ever driven.
I got the 3.9 vert. Love it
Only 105,000 miles that’s certified pre-owned at auto buy center
bruh someone really fumblin the blunt 4 different times in each of the 4 seats
Got my wife a 2010 G6 Gt she loves that car runs and drives very nice. Pontiac did good on these
I have a 2007 G6 GTP that is the same color as this one except. I have black leather interior and no spoiler. Ive put 187k miles on it since 2007 and I love it.
It's definitely a nice smooth car with low miles for it's age. I obviously prefer the Pontiac G8 the Australian Holden Commodore Sedan with the LS3 V8 😍 however that is a gas guzzler. Nice POV again Chad, I really think these allow the customers to feel like they are more so driving the car and experiencing it themselves!!!
I bought an '08 for about $4k. I love the damn thing. I was just about to stop car shopping for the day when I saw 4 or 5 of these on a lot. A guy I used to work with had started selling cars, and bought himself a G6 and was really happy with it, so I took one for a ride and I'm happy I did
Bought one of these new back in 2008 as my first car and came back here for the nostalgia lol. Mine was a 2007 G6 GT Coupe. I put around 140,000 on it with several cross country trips. The car did 9 coast to coast trips total and never had a single issue! Unfortunately on its last trip I hit a deer on the interstate in Kansas and it absolutely obliterated my front end. Still made it all the way back to the east coast. I ended up opting to not have the front end repaired and I traded it in to a dealership for $500. I’d pay $1000 to get it back today 🙃
Bro I have question my ball joint rubber is torn a little . Should I still drive it from Colorado to Texas ? Let me know
@@joshflows4848 They are relatively cheap to repair and will save you time lost and other issues like needing new tires once you get there. If you find a small shop you can probably get it done for around $200. If you really have to get there you’d more than likely be fine, but I personally wouldn’t chance it
Mine is the 09 GT, with 180,000 miles. And it runs like a dream still. If you take care your car it’ll take care of you.
I love my o7 g6 convertible gt. 30.000 miles on it. It's not my daily I have another car i use for my daily. I hope to keep it for my classic when I get older. I wish Pontiac would come back to us.
I had a 2007 Pontiac G6 with a panoramic sunroof in 6 disc CD changer and the v6 sedan it was a good little car
Yo keep up the good work I didn't know you still done yet vids but you grinding
Got a Pontiac Grand Am 2004 15 years old still runs and drives like new. Interior little rough but it is used
I have a Pontiac G6 06 3.9L with 165, sumn miles on it Nd it still runs real good bought it ofc with lower miles on it
My Pontiac had the same radio problem. Turn it off and back on again and it works just fine every time
Owned by a stoner
Still got my 07 sedan with the 4 cylinder engine. 196k miles and the only issue are the rocket panels going.
Now as for your radio issue, the rear window antenna is known for having issues in the 07's
I have a pontiac g6 gt 2009160k miles never had an major problems the only ones were just a factory recall but other than that a solid ass car real deal american
Thanks for video. Very informative. Great car! I'm looking into buying something like this
Nice! Glad it was helpful to you. thanks for watching. Chad
i have the 2005 g6 and it can get to 20 below and starts up right away ,mind also has the torque steer. have it now for almost 6 years and only one ball joint was done as far as repairs go, those cigarette burns look like they were done on purpose
I just picked up a 2010 G6 GT (auto), 96k miles on it, for $4200. So far, it's a fun and very comfortable little car. I'm tempted to race it against my 1992 Honda Prelude SI (manual). Honestly though, the Lude has more work done to it, I feel like this newcomer won't be able to keep up with Frankenstein.
I’d lower the price a little bit because of the radio and the burn holes.
I got a 09 g6 convertible. I’m still thinking about fixing it up and give it a paint job rather than buying a new car. It is still a fun and good car.
I’ve always dug the Pontiacs. Don’t like red but the car itself is nice! I’ve wanted to have a GrandAM but couldn’t afford one.
G6 "replaced" the Grand Am. it actually stands for the 6th gen Grand Am.
I have a 2006 G6 GTP Coupe with 2-toned Chocolate and Cream leather and the exterior is a Olive green color, w/109,000. It still turns heads to be a 12 year old car
I own a black on black '08 G6 GT. Bought it four years ago with 26,000 miles on it for seven grand. Now it has 66,000. It has 217 horsepower which is decent. I would suggest checking your alignment to eliminate the torque steer. This car has a ton of low-end and feels like a rear wheel drive car. I think it would be perfect with 50 more horsepower.
Sloane, that was a steal! I had a 2008 G6 GT Sedan in navy blue back in 2008. I loooved that car. Hitting those corners at a good speed was like a breeze! My biggest problem was making left turns and the gas hand would drop like a rock. I could have a half a tank and as soon as I turn, i would watch it drop to nearly a quarter full! It would recover in about 30 seconds but not quite back to half or it’s original reading. And yes, I agree that 50 extra horsepower would have made it very competitive and better.
You guys know they had a GTP model of the G6 with a 3.9L with 240HP right? So not exactly the 50hp you guys were wanting but close.. and it's actually a real car
@@John--John Of course. But it wasn't available at the time I was looking for a vehicle. Honestly, I'm ready to go back to a Mustang GT or a G35. My '08 GT is up to 77,000 miles now and parts just keep on breaking.
@@SloaneLasers i have a 06 GTP. They're a POS honestly. That's why I've never understood everybody's fascination with them
RIP Pontiac 🌠 my ex sister in law had a grand am and a G6 gt. my favorite G6 is the one with the multi glass sunroof; i always thought it looked cool!
It looked cool but they were very proned to rattle. I worked at a Pontiac dealer when they were new and anybody who bought one complained about the rattling on them.
I have an 08 g6 gxp Street edition wonderful car
I bought me a pontiac 8 months ago and Im still in love♥️. I’m just upset about my headlight having a shortage in it but other than that I love it!!! It’s been my dream car since I was 9
It might need a new headlight harness. It's easy to fix
@@roamizane1484 we ended up figuring out the issue, the problem was that the bulbs was in the wrong spots.
@@alexandriahopkinsCheck out mine on IG Nonchalantcool
Man, that thing is surprisingly quiet. Can barely even hear it when you accelerate.
It's a good overall car for the money. I have a 2008 GPX G6 Street Edition Coupe, Black on black leather interior loaded. 65K miles I would inspect the electrical all over the car. look for jerry rigged wiring. The electrical is really below average and I would really check the control arms with the suspension. Expect anything over 10 years needing 800+ in new arms and bearings. I picked up mine for 8200$. They're nice and some want premium prices for low mile units because they're rare now but, don't fall for that. I'm waiting a week for some suspension parts for mine now. There are issues with a dead brand. I love my car though. Most powerful front wheel drive I've ever driven. I added MKX Black and Silver 8.5 hubs rolling on Michelin 245/40's that 1 inch over 7.5 OEM makes all the difference. Tires come to the fenders now. Had it 8 months and I'm thinking about selling it. Now it's only at almost 67K miles. My price was a trade "amount" I'm asking 10K......I looked at the Cadillac ATS-V's...opps Lol I have to move on Lol
I own a pontiac G6 GT today but from 2008, and i love it, i was very surprised when i first raved the engine and discovered how much does a supercharged V6 can make noise and show how much of a beast in can be. Respect to pontiac. for info, It has around 285 HP for sadly FWD and not RWD
I also just love to see the face of people when i start the engine and push it a little to make it ''roar''
Also a huge lost they did, The car only has 4 gear instead of 5 or 6 wich makes the speed and acceleration fade away as soon that you hit around 100 km/h
I love my Pontiac ❣️
Great cars. My girlfriend has one with 207k miles and runs like new. Only bad thing is they like to rust out the rocker panels and the front end needs balljoints replaced all the time
I like the video and I have a Pontiac just thought the video had some really funny points. haha
Those cars have a recall on the power steering not just that year but most of the 2000s the steering would lock up going down the road pretty scary
The newer g6s went back to hydraulic steering. I own a 08 cobalt with electric assit steering and not have any issues yet at 160,000 miles.
I have a fully straight piped base model 2005 pontiac g6
I have a 2006 GTP convertible that looks almost identical to that one, just has 230k miles. Still runs good and a fun car
I saw one of these just like this one online for $2500 with the 3.5l - 98k miles.
I ran to the atm to get the cash and by the time I got to the dealer. It was already bought.
Same thing happened to me today
I got one for 3500 right now
@@toneywalker6779 damn i can't find one under 4k
I have a g6 gt coupe with Sun and sound package. You might have had the Sirius radio on instead of fm. When you put the car in park the doors should unlock automatically. The car is fairly heavy at close to 4000 lbs. I have leather. It is a good car and power to pass on the highway.
Do you think the g6 gt is faster than the 2009 maxima?
I had that car and I miss it. But it had a lot of electrical issues. And after 40k miles or so the steering wheel would shake at highway speeds. The tires were balanced.
Art Vandelay my 2002 pontiac grand am had electrical issues as well not sure if that was a pontaic thing
Have a 2008 pontiac and yeah at 80,000 miles its got a lot of electrical issues aswell.
Electrical issues..sun roof drainage tube issues..causing water to collect in the floorboards after rains..ect...'07..still running at 120k.. surprised..🙄
@@AstralBeing how much roughly did u have to put in to fix these issues and what was wrong
Right now I actually just bought a 2009 Pontiac G6 GT Coupe with 190,000 it was my cousins and it drives great and they last for a long time!!!!
What. Lovely, simple car.
I love my Pontiac G6 2007 model suddenly I have no speakers volume at all
Pontiac made some great cars.
My mom had a Pontiac right before she passed and that thing always had problems. That was in 2007. fast forward to now I want a Pontiac for my first car because they’re super cute but I’m scared that it’s gonna have issues like my mother’s. Lol even though I was 7 I still knew that car was crazy
Mine is fine. Can't go wrong with a hardtop convertible. I barely notice the torque steer
Prob here is with no carfax and body damage...you need to ck the frame and more. I’m still shaking my head over them stopping the carfax
I know the later G6 do have more 0.1and0.4 litre size engine from the 3.5l... nice cars but I will not drive in the winter. They are FWD but very light
Chad seen a 2004 Nissan Murano SL Awd with 98,000 miles on it.
Does it have command start?
Got a white Pontiac g6 and let me tell u mine is somewhat stock and it ain’t quiet
Good job man i
That is a very nice car my mom had a car like this but it was a 4 door and it was blue. But me and me and my uncle were talking a test drive and we got in car accident
Miss this car so bad, man.
Mines 2007 has 113k and sounds like a go kar is that normal 🥴
I own a 2008 G6 GT , have about 150,000 miles on it love it
what would you say is it's current price in 2021? I am thinking of buying one for 5000. Is it a good buy?
@@anakinskywalker4197 what year is it and what condition is it in and how many miles on it ? mine had 80,000 and I paid 6,000 for it
My G6 is a 2006 it only has 62,000 miles on it and I love everything about my G6 I put a supercharger on it a CAI a tower strut bar and a superchip and it's an amazing mustang 5.0 eater
It was fast stock but now with mods and 12 pounds of boost it has a lot of get up and go
Hey what engine is in your G6? I'm interested in a turbocharge project for the 3.9L pushrod V6. Does your transmission hold up to all that extra torque?
3.5 and yeah, coyote killer man
Kibble Racing Team Integra hey man i have a g6 with a 3.5 too and was also thinking of the same mods as you, can i get more info? Maybe we can shoot a text?
@@sergiotellez1310 you will have to start first with internals rings pistons rods ect I went the universal route alot of custom fabrication and 🔧 time
i honestly believe PONTIAC had 1 of the best cars maybe that's y they stopped building them if u understand what I mean for a American made car radio problem not bad
I picked up an '06 GTP convertible last week, which I've found out is a bit of a unicorn since the GTP was only available as a convertible for half a model year. I'm surprised at how quick it is, even with all the extra weight I'm dragging around. I haven't noticed any torque steer in mine, which is something I'd probably pick up on rather quickly as I'm used to driving RWD cars. Anyway, I'm in love with this car and I hope to keep it running long after the demise of the brand itself.
Congrats on your new purchase. Those are rare, you are right. I am pretty sure it is a head turner. I have a green 07 G6 standard transmission and it is a nice car too.
@@kastellolo5212 Thank you! Yeah, I got my first compliment on it like a week after buying it. The fact that yours is a manual may make it even rarer than my car.
You are very welcome. Mine has the 3.9l engine and is rated 25 mpg. Installed a drop-in K&N filter months ago and I'm averaging between 25-33 mpg depending how I shift. You could have the same results. Yours is a keeper!!!!
Yeah, I had a unicorn too, I had a '07 black 3.9 convertible GT, I don't know if you know but they actually removed the GTP name for 2007 and just called it the GT and took it for 3.9 you had to op for the sport package
Anyone else notice he popped the hood and never latched it afterwards
I miss my 2009.5 it got totaled back in 2017. Had 240k on it. :(
Nice
Pontiac has a corvette steering wheel if you didn’t know it’s off a c6
What a shame that the 2008 Reccesion killed Pontiac
You think so? They could make a comeback!!
Wow low mileage awesome
Lol talikn bout sum passing of the blunts
does this car have a aux input or a media usb???
Yes it has a aux input
The 4 door looks hella better. Specially if they askin 4 grand
My G6 has a way bigger hole in the back seat from a cigarette than those tiny “blunt” holes ....
LOL well now we know!
passing of the blunts lmao
I had one of these. It was silver, nice car, worst steering feedback ever though. 😅
6:55 This was very informative: SOLD! XD
Stick ya little thing in there....proceeds with the gooshy noise. Lol 😆 🤣
This cars clean! Aside from front end damage cigarette burns stereo don't work seats stained missing parts etc. What a joke of a dealer
in 2008 I bought a 2007 used g6 v6 for 17,999 lol.
70's hot??????
Lol lots of blim burns haha
lol someone been smoking some dope...
Yup He a dope feen u can hear & see it on him
Are you talking about her parking job?
Should be a mute button somewhere on the radio
Ronnie Mckelvy you press the power button😂
4000? I got my 2006 G6 with 100,000 for 1800$ 😂😂
Where? What city?
I paid 1500 for my 2008 bout 150k at the time
Andre Penn still runs goods ?
@@andrepenn4994 i only paid 1500. 09 pontiac g6 3.5L v6 and 172.000miles
NotoriousBeann is it still running good
Ahh BLUNT ! 😂😂😂
These Pontiac G6 models are notorious for shitty speakers. They are built with cheap materials thus disintegrate over time.
What happens is the voice coils get fucked up when the surround give out, causing many issues. This occurs in the front AND rear drivers.
The plastic cones used are EXTREMELY thin. If you poke them, it ripples like soggy toilet paper.
From personal experience...
i have a 06 pontiac gt g6 , the speakers are fine to me , i like how the bass is but thats every car over time
@@Geminiwaze I believe it's the coupe models in particular with the monsoon (I think it's called that?) Sound package... My friend had a sedan g6 the same age and the speakers are exceedingly good
Buy a Toyota
probably a very bad car for 4000 bucks😂😂😂
Not worth 4000
I just bought mine for 1,000.
