&lt;div&gt;[[image:2007_G6_sedangoldleft.jpg|right|thumb|400px|&#039;&#039;&#039;The 2007 [[Pontiac]] G6 Sedan&#039;&#039;&#039;]]&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Pontiac]] G6&#039;&#039;&#039; is a mid-size car released in 2005. It uses the GM Epsilon platform, sharing it with the [[Chevrolet Malibu]], [[Saab 9-3]], [[Saturn Aura]], [[Opel Vectra]], and [[Cadillac BLS]]. Introduced at the 2004 North American International Auto Show, the G6 is a replacement for the [[Pontiac Grand Am]] (which previously shared its platform and components with the [[Oldsmobile Alero]]).  It is currently reminiscent of the [[Mitsubishi Galant]] and [[Ford Fusion]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/table&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Reliability===&lt;br /&gt;
Because it is still a young model, long-term reliability information is not yet available for the G6.  However, Consumer Reports does state that so far,  &amp;quot;reliability has been average.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, preliminary reports indicate that there seems to be problems with the Panoramic sunroof option. It has been reportedly the cause of severe wind noise and in some cases may actually leak. For the 2008 model year the option has been deleted. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another issue is reported cases of batteries running flat. The problem has been, in some cases, traced to a faulty body control module that continues to draw current even when the vehicle is shut down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Safety===&lt;br /&gt;
The 2007 G6 received high marks from the [http://www.safercar.gov NHTSA.]  For passenger front-impact crash tests and tests for rollover, the G6 received 4-Star ratings, and for driver front-impact and all side-impact crash tests, it received the highest 5-Star rating.  Some of the standard safety equipment found on all trim levels of the G6 includes:&lt;br /&gt;
*Front and rear anti-roll bars&lt;br /&gt;
*Driver/passenger front-impact [[airbag]]s&lt;br /&gt;
*1st/2nd row overhead [[airbag]]s&lt;br /&gt;
*Occupancy sensors&lt;br /&gt;
*Side impact bars&lt;br /&gt;
*Ignition disable&lt;br /&gt;
*Security system&lt;br /&gt;

==Hybrid Models==&lt;br /&gt;
There are currently no [[hybrid]] models of the G6 in production.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Unique Attributes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Resale Values==&lt;br /&gt;
According to [http://www.kbb.com Kelley Blue Book,] &amp;quot;The G6 is projected to hold only average residual values, retaining slightly more than half its purchase price after the first 24 months. That&#039;s on par with the Ford Fusion and better than the Dodge Stratus, but far below the marks held by the [[Honda Civic]], [[Volkswagen Jetta]] and [[Mazda Mazda6]].&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Criticisms==&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;If we had our druthers, we&#039;d replace the way-bright chrome surrounds on the gauges with brushed rings and find better-shaped, more supportive seats.&amp;quot; - Car and Driver&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;There&#039;s nothing special about the G6 engine-it&#039;s a 3.5-liter pushrod V6 with 200 horsepower and lacks the sophistication of overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder.&amp;quot; - MSN Autos&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Available Panoramic roof steals headroom, forcing taller passengers to scrunch uncomfortably.&amp;quot; - Consumer Guide&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Equipped with this so-called sport suspension, we expected the GT to be, well, sporty. It wasn&#039;t.&amp;quot; - Car and Driver&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;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 and Honda.&amp;quot; - Kelley Blue Book&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Bumps cause slight knocking in front end.&amp;quot; - Consumer Guide&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Current Generation: (2007–Present)==&lt;br /&gt;
Although the G6 was new to the public, in many respects it could be considered the sixth generation of the [[Pontiac Grand Am|Grand Am]], even though that name was retired. Within a year, this new car had become the 11th best selling car in the United States (2005), and won several consumer-based industry awards from JD Power (APEAL), Strategic Vision (&amp;quot;Total Quality&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Delight&amp;quot;) and became a Consumer Reports Recommended Buy. Car of the Year by the Spanish magazine Automundo.&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:2007_G6_couperight.jpg|right|thumb|350px|[[Pontiac]] G6 Coupe]]&lt;br /&gt;
Pontiac introduced a coupé convertible version of the G6 at the 2005 Los Angeles Auto Show. The G6 convertible began arriving on dealership lots during the Spring of 2006.  The starting price for the GT trim level was $28,490; while the GTP started at $29,990.  At launch, it was the most inexpensive retractable hardtop available in the U.S. market.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The other bodystyles available are coupe and sedan.  In its May 22 2006 issue, Time magazine put the G6 on a two-car list, along with the [[Buick Terraza]], of GM cars that &amp;quot;aren&#039;t going anywhere.&amp;quot;  Time continued to say that &amp;quot;GM did not capitalize on the G6&#039;s good reviews for interior styling and power train.  It delayed a cheaper, four-cylinder version, as well as a coupe and convertible.  Sales now rely on incentives and fleet deals.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beginning in April 2005, the G6 became one of the first [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] vehicles since the electric-powered [[General Motors EV1|EV1]] to wear a &amp;quot;GM&amp;quot; badge. It is placed on both fenders behind the front wheels. Currently, all GM vehicles wear similar badges.&lt;br /&gt;

The Pontiac G6 is the replacement for the Pontiac Grand Am which ceased production on May 2, 2005, when the 100-year old Lansing, Michigan assembly plant closed. Most of the 3,500 workers affected will be moved to the new Delta Township, Michigan assembly plant in late 2006. The G6 is produced in the Orion Township, Michigan assembly plant. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Engine====&lt;br /&gt;
The G6 base comes standard with the 2.4&amp;amp;nbsp;L &#039;&#039;[[GM Family II engine|Ecotec]]&#039;&#039; four cylinder engine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The GT Model comes standard with the 3.5&amp;amp;nbsp;L &#039;&#039;[[GM High Value engine#LX9|LX9]]&#039;&#039; engine which produces 201&amp;amp;nbsp;[[HP|hp]] (150&amp;amp;nbsp;kW) and 222&amp;amp;nbsp;ft·lbf (301&amp;amp;nbsp;N·m) of torque. This was the only engine available for the 2005 and 2006 model years.  The 2007 model has the 3.5&amp;amp;nbsp;L &#039;&#039;[[GM High Value engine#LZ4|LZ4]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New for 2006, the G6 &#039;&#039;GTP&#039;&#039; comes with GM&#039;s 3.9&amp;amp;nbsp;L &#039;&#039;[[GM High Value engine#LZ9|LZ9]]&#039;&#039; engine, producing 240&amp;amp;nbsp;[[HP|hp]] (179&amp;amp;nbsp;kW) and 241&amp;amp;nbsp;ft·lbf (327&amp;amp;nbsp;N·m) of torque.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2007 the 3.9 L [[V6|V6]] will go into the &#039;&#039;GT&#039;&#039; + Sport Package, making way for the 3.6 L [[V6|V6]] and the new 6-speed [[Automatic transmission|automatic]] in the &#039;&#039;GTP&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== GXP ====&lt;br /&gt;
Pontiac unveiled a G6 &#039;&#039;GXP&#039;&#039; concept at the 2006 New York Auto Show in April.  It includes a lowered suspension and redesigned front clip with an integrated air dam and more chrome on the grille.  A twin air-scoop hood will be most noticeable, however, as will the 19&amp;amp;nbsp;in wheels.  The GXP concept uses a 270&amp;amp;nbsp;[[HP|hp]] (201&amp;amp;nbsp;kW) and 259&amp;amp;nbsp;ft·lbf (351&amp;amp;nbsp;N·m) version of the 3.9&amp;amp;nbsp;L &#039;&#039;High Value&#039;&#039; [[V6]].&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Cargiveaway.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Oprah Winfrey giving a G6 to every audience member on her show.]]The launch of the G6 was a major publicity stunt: 276 of the cars were famously given away to audience members of &#039;&#039;The Oprah Winfrey Show&#039;&#039; on the talk show&#039;s fall 2004 season premiere. This promotion garnered international attention, a reported US$110 million in publicity, and put the G6, a previously unknown name, solidly on the lists of many shoppers.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{List Of Pontiac Models}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Pontiac&#039;&#039;&#039; is a marque of [[automobile]] produced by [[GMC|General Motors]] and sold in the United States from 1926 to the present. In the GM brand lineup, Pontiac is a mid-level brand featuring a more sporting, performance-driving experience for a reasonable price, and a youthful feel to its advertising.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Pontiac brand was introduced by General Motors in 1926 as the &#039;companion&#039; marque to GM&#039;s Oakland Motor Car line. The Pontiac name was first used in 1906 by the Pontiac Spring &amp;amp; Wagon Works.  The Oakland Motor Company and Pontiac Spring &amp;amp; Wagon Works Company decided to merge together in November 1908 under the name of the Oakland Motor Car Company. The operations of both companies were joined together in Pontiac, Michigan to build the Cartercar. Oakland was purchased by General Motors in 1909. The first General Motors Pontiac was conceived as an affordable [[V6|six cylinder]] that was intended to compete with more inexpensive four cylinder models. Within months of its introduction, Pontiac outsold Oakland. As Pontiac&#039;s sales rose and Oakland&#039;s sales began to decline, Pontiac became the only &#039;companion&#039; marque to survive its &#039;parent&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A Native American Headdress was used as a logo until 1956. The current Pontiac logo represents a Native American arrowhead. An alternate slang term for the marque among performance enthusiasts includes &#039;&#039;Poncho&#039;&#039;. Another slang term used in the early stages of brand was &amp;quot;Indian&amp;quot; due the subject matter of its logo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Middle years==&lt;br /&gt;
For an extended period of time, prewar through the early 1950&#039;s, the Pontiac was a quiet and solid car, but not especially powerful. A flathead (side-valve) straight eight offered both the quietest and smoothest possible operation, with an appropriately soft suspension and quiet muffler offering the feeling of luxury without the expense. These combinations proved attractive to the vehicle&#039;s target market - a reserved lower middle class that was not especially interested in performance or handling and was seeking good value and a roomy vehicle in a step up from the entry-level [[Chevrolet|Chevrolet]]. This fit well within parent GM&#039;s strategy of passing an increasingly prosperous customer up through the various divisions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Performance heritage==&lt;br /&gt;
Since the 1957 introduction of the [[Pontiac Bonneville|Bonneville]], Pontiac marketing has emphasized performance; the division&#039;s slogan for many years was &#039;&#039;&amp;quot;We Build Excitement&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;. Traditionally, each GM division had its own market niche - [[Chevrolet]] was equated with value, [[Oldsmobile]] with technology, [[Buick]] was marketed affordable luxury, [[Cadillac]] as ultimate luxury and Pontiac embraced performance. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the introduction of the Bonneville in 1957, Pontiac&#039;s next success was the introduction of its &#039;&#039;&#039;Wide-Track&#039;&#039;&#039; suspension layout in 1959. Wide-Track gave the car a broader stance by increasing the width between the wheels, providing greater stability and increased traction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Pontiac GTO]] was introduced in 1964 by Pontiac&#039;s John DeLorean as an option package on the [[Pontiac LeMans]]/[[Tempest]] (GM A-body) car. It was the first intermediate GM vehicle to be powered by the Pontiac division&#039;s 389&amp;amp;nbsp;in³ V8. By being the first brand to feature a large engine in an intermediate car, Pontiac is often credited with launching the [[muscle car]] era. Throughout the 1960s, GTOs were well known for their combination of stunning looks and incredible performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Pontiac Firebird|Firebird]], introduced in 1967, was an F-body car that closely mirrored the styling and motor offerings of the LeMans/Tempest cars but was placed on a smaller, sportier platform. This body style and its underlying [[Chevrolet Nova]] chassis were shared with the [[Camaro]], but the Firebird&#039;s engines and trim were totally different. As upscale competition for sporty cars like the [[Ford Mustang]] or the [[Dodge Challenger]], the Firebird was perfectly positioned. After reaching record sales levels in the 1970s, in part due to such publicity as the Smokey &amp;amp; the Bandit movies and in part due to being one of the very few performance cars on the market, Firebird sales slowly began to fall in the 1990s and GM pulled the plug on the Camaro/ Firebird lines in 2002, after 35 years of continuous production. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even more famous was the limited-edition Firebird [[Pontiac Firebird|Trans Am]], which was first offered in 1969 and continued through the end of the Firebird in 2002. Early on, the Trans Am was most notable for having the same high-performance 400&amp;amp;nbsp;in³ and 455&amp;amp;nbsp;in³ V8 engines as the GTO but in a smaller, lighter body. This pattern continued through the late 1970s, after which the Trans Am became more of a luxury model than a real performance machine. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just about the time that these muscle cars were getting big attention, emissions regulations and oil shortages quickly ground them to a halt. While production first started in the late 1950s, it did not hit its stride until the late 1960s. By 1972, few were left on the market. Most telling was the fate of the GTO - originally conceived as a powerful mid-size coupe, by 1974 the GTO option was offered only on the compact [[Pontiac Ventura|Ventura]]. And then, it too was gone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From the late 1970s on to the late 1980s, while downsizing its North American operations, General Motors had little funds to spend on independent brand-specific performance platforms. That was, until the [[Pontiac Fiero]] was introduced in 1983 as a 1984 model. Drawing heavily from GM&#039;s parts bin, the Fiero was initially billed as a commuter car. While it was not performance oriented in its initial release, its final versions with improved suspension geometry and available 2.8L [[V6|V6]] made the Fiero a potent [[MR layout|mid-engined]] sports car. With the demise of the Fiero in 1988, Pontiac only offered badge engineered products from other GM divisions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2001, Bob Lutz, the former Vice Chairman of the [[Chrysler|Chrysler Corporation]] was hired to help turn GM around. One of his first ideas was to bring back the GTO in order to revive Pontiac&#039;s performance heritage in light of the Firebird&#039;s demise. Finding limited numbers of smaller rear wheel drive coupe platforms, Pontiac looked to [[Holden]], a GM division of Australia, for the platform of their GTO.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beginning late 2004, GM&#039;s [[Holden]] division produced a version of their [[Holden Monaro|Monaro]] coupe with Pontiac trim and all the attitude of the original 1960s editions. Debuting with the potent 350&amp;amp;nbsp;[[HP|hp]] [[LS1]] V8 and a world-class chassis, the new GTO is at least as good as its predecessors. But its lackluster styling turned off many buyers and forced GM to add hood scoops and other styling touches in order to make the GTO look like the originals. GM increased the Performance of the GTO in 2005 by adding the [[Corvette]] derived [[LS2]] V8 producing 400&amp;amp;nbsp;[[HP|hp]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the summer of 2005, the [[Pontiac Solstice]] sports roadster arrived, and with it the renewed promise of style and driving fun. It was launched on an episode of The Apprentice; the following day the first thousand Solstices were sold in just 41 minutes. Solstice became one of hottest car America&#039;s throughout 2005 as Pontiac reported orders far beyond their ability to produce the car, and dealer mark-ups of thousands of dollars over sticker price, a rarity for GM in this time of deep incentives. Pontiac is upping the ante even more for 2007 with a high-performance version of the Solstice, the Solstice GXP, drawing its power from a [[Turbo Engine|Turbocharged]], Direct Gas Injection, 2.0L 4 cylinder [[Ecotec]] producing 260&amp;amp;nbsp;[[HP|hp]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also in 2005, Pontiac put a V8 under the hood of the [[Pontiac Grand Prix|Grand Prix]]. Called the Grand Prix GXP, it would give the Grand Prix its first V8 since 1987. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A majority of Pontiac dealerships also sell [[GMC]] trucks - the trade name used by GM executives is the Pontiac/GMC division.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Engines==&lt;br /&gt;
Pontiac&#039;s second generation V8 engines were nearly identical, allowing many parts to interchange from its advent in 1955 to its demise in 1981. Sizes ranged from 265&amp;amp;nbsp;in³ to 455&amp;amp;nbsp;in³. This similarity (except the 301 &amp;amp; 265) makes rebuilding these engines particularly easy, as almost any Pontiac engine one can find will contain useful parts. This dimensional similarity between engines of various capacity also made it possible for Pontiac to invent the modern [[muscle car]], by the relatively simple process of placing its largest engines into its mid-size cars, creating the [[Pontiac GTO]].&lt;br /&gt;
The non-traditional Pontiac V8 was the 301 and the smaller displacement 265&amp;amp;nbsp;in³. Produced from 1977 through 1981, this motor has the distinction of being the last Pontiac V8 produced by PMD. The 301 has a 4 inch bore and 3 inch stroke, identical to the vaunted [[Chevrolet|Chevrolet]] and Ford 302 motors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pontiac engines were not available in Canada, however, but were replaced with [[Chevrolet|Chevrolet]] engines of similar size and power, resulting in such interesting and unusual (at least to American car fans) models as the Beaumont SD-396 with a [[Chevrolet|Chevrolet]] big-block 396 &amp;amp;nbsp;in³ V-8.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All Pontiac Motor Division (PMD) engines (pre-1980 unified GM) were designed around a low-RPM/high-torque model, as opposed to the ubiquitous [[Chevrolet|Chevrolet]] Small-Block engine known for its smaller displacement and high RPM/high power design. PMD engines were unique for their rear distributor, integrated water pump and timing chain cover, and separate valley pan and intake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Carburetors==&lt;br /&gt;
PMD originally used Rochester 1-barrel [[carburetor]]s for many years, but by the time of the second generation engines had switched mostly to the 2-barrel offerings. These were the basis for the [[Tri-Power]] setups on the engines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Tri-Power setup included one center carburetor with idle control and two end carburetors that did not contribute until the throttle was opened more than half way. This was accomplished two ways, mechanically for the [[manual transmission]] models, and via a vacuum-switch on the automatics. This went through various permutations before being banned by GM.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PMD also had a square-bore 4-barrel at the time, but this was rated at a lower power than the Tri-Power. This carburetor was later replaced by the [[Quadrajet]], a spread bore. &#039;Spread-bore&#039; refers to the difference in sizes between the primaries and secondaries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By the end of the muscle car era, the QuadraJet setup had become the nearly-ubiquitous choice on PMD engines, due to its excellent economy and power characteristics. While QuadraJets have been occasionally derided as being poor performers, with proper understanding and tuning it can compete at most levels with other designs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This design proved good enough to last well into the 1980s with emissions modifications while most others carburetors were dropped for the easier to build fuel injection when economy mattered.&lt;br /&gt;
