I think it would be a great car, I honestly do. I think it should last a good amount of time, since it's not a G5.

But you are right, it is hard to give definitive without really knowing anyone that owns one haha

Thanks Mike. Maybe I can go with him for a test drive or something. It's not too far from us.

Id love to get one of those with the 3.6 and take the nasty GXP front and rear bumper covers off and replace them with the GT ones. They look much better IMO. Not over the top like the GXP.

From what I've been reading the 2007 GTP has the same engine and 6 speed auto transmission, but it's pretty much dressed like a GT.

Looks like this...

My mother-in-law has a black 2007 g6 hardtop convertible. It is a nice looking car and it drives nice. It is a little cramped (maybe just because it is a convertible). I do have to say that the interior is the most "plasticky" I have ever seen.

Hers is for sale also.

I think it was a good comptetion to the Nissan Altima Coupe...looks a lil similar to it especially in the back.

IMO by me they were mostly "girls" cars were females have purchased them, most I know even wanted the convertable..but again just from what I have seen, not neccassarily the case, if your friend likes the car, and it does have decent power, looks aggressive without going over the top...definitely looks like a clean and well taken care of car

Best of luck to him if he decides to get it!,

Yeah, but they're both more expensive when optioned as high as this G6. They're both very nice though.
