I do as well. I'm planning on buying an 06 GTP, but I won't until I can test drive one, and I don't even see any around town where I could. Same for the coupe.
I, also, am hesitant on first year make cars, but to be honest, I question how well the second years would be made compared to the first.
The G6 is a pretty darn good upgrade from the Grand Am, which I have now, and love, despite its several flaws. I drove the G6 and it's an improvement in almost every aspect.
They are overpriced, no one's going to deny that, but with that discount, you could get every single option you wanted, leather included.
Personally, I wouldn't buy a sedan without the panoramic sunroof; it's way to unique. If it has problems, as all new cars eventually will, take it and they'll fix it, because it's under warrenty and that is unacceptable.
No car is flawless, I've found. I'm sure other members who own G6's right now can give you a better idea on what to do, but unless you're opting for a G6 GTP or coupe, I'd say go with the 2005, because the only differecnes between the 05 and 06 is that the 06 has small chrome trim accents on the radio knobs, a missing G6 badge where the air bag mechanism control is for the 06, and a three post instead of four post steering wheel (which, imo, looks much better, but it's not worth spending 3-5k mroe for when you can get a discount).
