Wouldn't be a bad car to use for a commute.
Get a lot better gas mileage than the V8 model, that's for damn sure.

The whole point of that car was the V8

Obviously not? Or else they would've offered just the V8.

Yeah, it would be like buying a muscle car without a V8. Oh wait...

They're called rental cars.

You get 73% of the power, less insurance cost, less fuel cost, and they're cheaper to buy. I really don't see a problem with it. I wouldn't call it a rental car at all.

It's like a v6 Mustang for adults with families.

They could be considered that. But the new Mustangs with the good V6.

It's okay. I mean...i wouldn't buy one. If it's the only car you'd own, i'd pass.

I don't particularly side with people who believe it is acceptable to own V6 pony cars but hey its not my money.

they needed some base model engine. But as Clarkson said "But don't buy the base model, because it'll almost certainly be Sh" *Cut scene*

Once they break the 20s, then GXP.

Still don't get what makes it so much worse than the V8. 261 horsepower isn't exactly anemic.

The car is piratically 4000 pounds. Also there's the sound. THE G8 is very muscle car, so it needs that engine. I have a friend with a V6 Camaro and he likes it...but he still wants an SS. It'll bother you over time. Like owning an F-Type with the V6, it'll be embarrassing once you see a V8 one on the road.

Isn't that why they made the G6?

It's the lame version any way you look at it. The V8 is the one you want, the one to have and the one that makes the car famous. Otherwise it would just be a mediocre rwd sedan.

Which makes the V6 the unkown car that no one cares about. Which makes it the kind of car I'd personally drive. I have a thing for "base models" and unknown cars.

"That's for damn sure?" The V6 is rated at 17/25 MPG and the V8 is rated at 15/24. I'm not sure one and a half combined MPG is a "lot better." Stop perpetuating the bullshit stereotype that anything with eight cylinders sucks down gas like it's cool.

Hah.
In a world where GM's V8 motors are getting better fuel economy than some V6s, do you really think I'm a believer of that stereotype? I only said that because that's the general thought and I didn't know the economy ratings.
So cool your jets.
