Hey I just bought the black GT Coupe.......AWESOME! I was the first one to buy one at my nearest dealer in the Hollywood area of California. I get stopped by people who want to know if it is really an American car. Some people think the back end resembles the Z or G35 because of the slant. The car handles amazing to me. I have driven my dad's Mercedes and I love this car so much better....of course he just has a mid level mercedes...not sure what the exact number is... think it starts with E. Anyhow...I am still under 30 and this is the best car I have ever owned. FAST...SLEEK...AWESOME AWESOME! I was getiing a hand wax in Hollywood on Sunset blvd this past Sunday and even some guy who was getting his 90k BMW sedan waxed wanted to know what my car was. Anyone thinking about getting this car has to go test drive it at a dealer...WOW! |

Replying to: rx8lover (Oct 31, 2005 4:51 pm) Three questions: What options did you go with? Was the dealer dealing or taking a hard line on price? Were there any GTPs on the lot? (I've seen a few GTs, no GTPs yet). Nice to hear the G6 Coupe is mixing things in the segment up a bit. |

We have had many come through our lot in Davison, Michigan. They are awesome cars. With the plant only about 30 miles away, we get a lot of workers coming in here that have information on the convertibles. They keep the rebates on the cheaper 4 and 6 cyl's. The lease rates are still somewhat high, but the car looks and drives awesome, especially with the slap shift. The adjustable foot pedals is also a great touch. Thats my input, if you are interested, you must drive one for sure.

Replying to: logic1 (Nov 01, 2005 6:50 am) I went with the basic options to keep my payment under 600. My payment is high because I am a first time buyer with a not so good interest rate. But.....I really feel like the car is nice enough that it is still way cool without leather and the 6-CD changer. I hook my IPOD into it anyway so the 6-CD changer was easy to go without. However I do regret not having the sunroof since I live in the nicest part of California just outside Beverly Hills off of the sunset strip. Great weather for sunroofs. Oh..well. It has a V6 engine...AC...17" Wheels...elect windows....elect seat height adjust...traction control is awesome (tested it out on wet roads recently)...the interior looks nice with chrome touches even on the basic model...cruise control on my steering wheel buttons....can't think of anything else right now. Things I do miss out on are the upgraded stereo controls on the right side of the steering wheel. But I am sooooo happy! Yes there were GTP models on the lot....WOW! they are awesome with on star and satellit radio. However in my opinion, the wheels on the GTP are too fancy looking for the hot sporty look of the car (they don't match). The brushed aluminum on the GT's looks way better...more racer and infiniti like.... and less luxury car like. I received a great deal with no hassle. I was the first guy to buy one at the local dealer. It's been a month now. I talk to my dealer still and he says they may have only sold one since then. The commercials just started airing so maybe that will change and they won't bve so negotiable. Until now I think most people only thought about the Solstice. But the G6 Coupe just kinda snuck out from behind all the solstice hype.

Replying to: rx8lover (Nov 01, 2005 2:08 pm) This is your big chance though. You played it right keeping the price workable. Make the payments, maybe even pay it off early, and you are on your way to a higher rating and lower interest rates in the future. I like the engine and six speed in the GTP. I agree with you on the wheels and the base stereo. Now that I have an I-Pod, I would just as soon leave my CDs at home. My last car was a convertible, so I would probably want a sun roof. I could live without one. A good friend of mine from college, his wife (and two kids now!), live near Willoughby and Fairfax in West Hollywood. I've been out there to visit a few times. I know exactly what you mean when you say it is the nicest part of California. West LA is a great place to live.

I saw a new G6 Coupe yesterday and I thought it looked a lot better than the Grand-Am coupes of recent years. Much better fit and finish.
