PONTIAC G6 Concept

















CONCEPT: PONTIAC G6
Wheelbase: 113.1 in.
Length: 184.2 in.
Width: 70 in.
Height: 52 in.
Engine: Supercharged 3.5-liter V-6
Horsepower: 285
Torque: 272 lbs.-ft.

What the automaker says: "Excitement, performance and sleek contemporary styling give the 2003 Pontiac G6 concept vehicle the look, feel and attitude of a world-class GT sports sedan. Pontiac's four-passenger sedan demonstrates how the division is evolving for the 21st century with cleaner contemporary designs and total performance - seamlessly blending power and acceleration with superior ride and handling characteristics for a responsive driving experience."

What you should know: The four-passenger G6 sedan previews Pontiac's styling as it tries to position itself as a quality performance brand, a la BMW - even down to the quite Bimmer-like grille. "The body stretches out over the wheels," said Tim Kozub, the G6 exterior designer. "The overhangs are short, a contemporary architecture that provides great interior space." The G6 has a supercharged 3.5-liter V-6 that produces 285 hp and 272 pounds-feet of torque. It also could be equipped with Displacement on Demand.

This reminds of the BMW 6 series coupe only with 4 doors. I like it a lot.

That looks amazing! I think I'd have to give pontiac a chance if they made that, 2 or 4 doors.

That MF is off the damn hook!!!! The ass looks kinda like a 300M but thats OK. This must be the same design crew as the solstice. My only fear is that the rims are what is reaaly setting it off and knowing that production rims are NEVER the size are design of the concept rims. If the car is at least made to accept rims that size it will be on for sure!
