@rocketpig: not bad man, i guess you really did need a car bad cus i didnt think you'd get one that fast. usually people go to different car dealers before choosing but i guess if you found what you like than get it. its a good car though

I was fully expecting to go to more than one dealer but the Pontiac really impressed me. It's way quicker than the non-V8 Charger (which is a gas hog in V-8 form), it's a lot more nimble, and it feels a lot sportier. The only real fault I have with the car is that it's FWD. I liked the size, interior, seating, pretty much everything much more than the Charger.

Given the rarity of RWD cars nowadays, that seriously limited my options and from what research I did on some of them, they left a lot to be desired when it came to options and power.

I briefly considered a WRX but given the huge "tool factor" when it comes to driving those little Subarus, I decided against it. I also prefer the clean-but-sporty look of the G6 over the cobbled plasticky nature of the WRX. I was also restricted to sedans (wife has a puny-ass Civic coupe) so that restricted me even more. I wanted something smaller but with enough room to fit a 6'4" frame.

It also helped that I got the car for about $2500 under book since it was at a Dodge dealership. The six year, 60k warranty is a plus, too.

PS. Mine is black with chrome rims and fog lights. That dark grey picture doesn't do it justice.
