G6 Performance Coupe at SEMA
G6 PERFORMANCE COUPE
Pontiac ’s roomy new 2006 G6 coupe already has the looks and performance of a competition-inspired machine, so it doesn’t take much to boost the excitement factor. GM Performance Division built the G6 Performance Coupe to showcase how wild the 2+2 coupe could be with replacement body parts. Those parts include new front and rear fascias, new rocker panels and a large rear deck wing. Forgeline 19-inch wheels and racing-inspired Wilwood brakes complete the functional/stylistic additions.
Vehicle Highlights
· 270-hp 3.9L V-6
· 6-speed manual transmission
· New front/rear fascias and rocker panels
· Body kit
· New hood with scoops
· Large rear deck wing
· 19-inch Forgeline wheels
· Wilwood disc brakes
· Driving lights
· Leather-trimmed interior with contrasting stitching, including instrument panel, insert panels and rear quarter panels
· Painted console trim bezels
· Special door sill plates
· Performance exhaust tips

I don't think it looks half-that-bad. Yea it kinda has some Z in the back..... but a lot of cars share elements. A lot of people on here, including myself, have pointed out that the 3GS resembles the Maxima or new Sonata from the back. Oh well, it happens.

Doesnt look to bad. Doesnt look great either. Nothing I would drive. For whatever reason it looks like the Batmobile. Probably because of that rediculous wing, and that ugly grill. Performance sounds interesting. To bad its FWD.

Looks nice, but it still sucks because its FWD
Its why the new Eclipse STILL sucks... spend 350z money on a slower car that is 'supposed' to compete with it... that makes no sense at all.
