Built upon GM's Epsilon platform (shared with other GM cars like the Cadillac BLS, Saab 9-3 and Saturn Aura), Pontiac added the G6 Coupe to its lineup for the 2006 model year. Classified as a mid-size car, the G6 Coupe replaced the Grand Am coupe in Pontiac's lineup.
The G6 Coupe comes in two trim lines - the GT and GXP. The GT comes standard with a 219 horsepower, 3.5 liter V6 engine mated to a 4-speed automatic that offers driver shift control. Riding on a standard sport suspension, the GT features 17' Chrome-Tech alloy wheels with optional 18' wheels.
The G6 Coupe has a wide variety of standard and optional safety equipment. GM's Onstar Services, which includes AccidentAssist, crash notification, fuel station location, hands-free calling, concierge services, turn-by-turn navigation and vehicle diagnostics, is available. In addition to Onstar, the G6 Coupe GT includes a standard traction control system, standard front and side impact air bags and available antilock brakes.
For 2008, the G6 Coupe GT offers two optional packages: a premium package that includes items like leather seats, heated front seats and a remote vehicle starter system; and a Sun and Sound package that includes a 6-disc CD changer and a power sunroof.
