GMI Exclusive!: G6 Hard top IN ACTION

March 31, 2005



Here is the G6's hard top vert in action at the NYIAS. Very smooth, and very nice. If Pontiac can keep its promise for under 30k, its a huge hit.

They'll need a better interior and upgraded engine if they hope to have anything over the Solara convertible other than a little less quirky styling.

IMO, the only advantage that this car has over the Solara is a folding hardtop.

It may have a price advantage as well.

The Solara convertible is $26,540 for the SE (with a 225hp V6) and $29,810 for the rather higher-end SLE (same engine), so I think it will probably come down to how much people feel the hardtop is worth over the soft top, because the interior isn't going to appear to be worth as much as a Solara.

It will probably have about a $1,500 real-world price advantage.
