#9 of 11 G6 engine by whateverdude Aug 22, 2007 (10:32 am)
I'm not surprised you found it coarse and loud, but if you had the '07 3.5 liter engine, it should be comparable in power to the Accord V6. The '07 3.5 has 224hp (20hp less than the Accord V6, but it reaches its peak at 5800rpm vs. 6250rpm for the Accord) and 220 lb/ft torque 4000rpm (vs. 211 lb/ft 5000rpm for the Accord). I believe they test out pretty closely in the 0-60 and 1/4 mile as well.   In any case, the 3.6 liter engine they put in the '07 G6 GTP (252hp/251 lb/ft torque) is much stronger and more representative of GM's latest engine technology.
#10 of 11 Love it! by rjent Aug 22, 2007 (1:52 pm)
We just purchased a new 2007 G6 convertible and love this car. I have had no problems and have put about 1200 miles on so far. We have the 3.9 and we are getting above 27 highway and over 20 in town. The top is incredible. I own two Corvettes (one a convertible) and I can honestly say that this car is just as much fun to drive, though the performance is not a good (naturally) it is still a fun car. I am suprised by all of the negative posts here on the G6 vert! So far so good for us!
#11 of 11 just bought a 08 g6 value edition by steven39 Sep 02, 2007 (5:24 pm)
just picked up my new 08 G6 value edition on saturday.paid 18,000 plus ttt.iam in miami and i just took the G6 on a nice long test drive of about 225 miles to orlando where i will be spending the labor day holiday.the car drove nice and smooth and feels like it's a well built car unlike the 07 vw rabbit that i traded in for the g6 which had electrical problems from day 1....anyway i will give more updates as i put more miles on the car.right now there is only 250 miles so it's still early in the game but so far so good.......steve
