Is a slighty under rated sub sports sedan. Its better than a Ford Fusion. Somehow it doesn't sell that well. This a american sports sedan that I would actually shed out money and buy (and have for few months) in black. Way better the G6 in my opinion.
It has a optional GM steering wheel mounted paddle gear shift for the auto. It has some GM techs like "Magnisteer" and things.
It three range of motors a V6, a supercharged V6, and small block. However the small blocked it mated to FWD platform only

-The reason why i like it. Its rare. Its cheap $US21-29K, it has good suprizingly decent looks- tho could be better fit n finish, it has good performance and is performance oriented- towards the CTS. And at times its looks much better in real life- paricularily in black.
Verdict: so its not a crafty and its fit in finish and lack off fine combing, it would've been superb. But the design is good and original and fits pontiac's design heritage and image. Its simple.
