Just picked up a 2009 G6 GXP as my choice of winter cruiser. I'm impressed with the performance of the 3.6L V6. Just under 2,000 miles and I've found it a fun car to drive.

Thanks Mike and thanks for getting me going on the forum.Hey LouB2B, welcome to the site and I'm glad you can now post
Nice looking rides!
That's funny...you'll have to stand in line. Yeah, it's one of 56 Stryker Blue G8 GXP's made. I knew it was a special ride but I never knew it was going to be so unique. Still can't believe GM threw Pontiac to the curb. What a shame...Hey is that a G8 GXP up there too? ADOPT ME!LOL
Actually in the G8 GXP, automatics have tested faster. Electronic shifting has come a long way. Nothing like shifting a manual gearbox to get your heart pounding, but no, it's a 6 speed automatic. You can select between normal and sport shift, which changes to more aggressive shift points or put it in manual mode and use the + and - to shift thru the gears. Auto comes with remote start, manual not. I use it for business during the summer, so opted for the auto. Of course finding a Stryker Blue GXP with either trans was a challenge in itself. There is still a big grin on my face when I drive it...manual...right??
Every once in a while I do actively engage...His sig say A6 so unless the A stands for Activelyengaging I would venture to guess he has an Auto![]()
