The only real annoyance I have with the G6 GT is that it's for my wife.
Your annoyances.
I was driving yesterday and the thought hit me. I'd like to hear what annoy people about their car. Maybe someone from GM will see it and address the issue in future models.
I'm not looking for things that are wrong with your car (e.g. steering wheel lock up, leaking panoramic roof, etc.). I'm interested in things that aren't broken or unique to your car but annoy you.
For me:
- I have the 6 disc changer. I didn't really want it but I couldn't get the sunroof without it. I guess that package is an annoyance. My real annoyance is with the changer itself. I absolutely hate the fact then when you eject a disc it automatically changes to the next disc. I think you should have the option of loading a new disc in the slot that you just ejected from immediately. I don't want to have to wait for the next disc to load only to press load and have to wait again as it pulls up the empty slot. Also, maybe being able to choose to eject discs x, y, and z instead of only having the option to eject one disc at a time or all the discs at a time.
- The cheap interior plastics. My doors constantly get scuffed up and some parts of the driver door are actually worn out (for lack of a better term) after only 7 months. Also, to a lesser degree, the cheap feel of the volume and tune knobs on the radio.
- Front seats that are near impossible to reach under. Man, I've dropped some slips of paper, dollar bills, and other stuff down the side of the driver's seat next to the glove box. It's an exercise in frustration trying to get that stuff back out.
That's all I can think of. None of this stuff is a real problem, but it certainly tends to frustrate me from time to time. The 6 disc changer especially, can be very aggravating for me.

Lucky fkr!My '06 G6GT had the following problems:
- switch on the dome light broke (fixed it myself - boy was the switch cheap)
- fog light indicator lamp burnt out
- started creaking at low speed, like an old jalopy!
My lease expired in Nov. so I turned it in and bought an '09 G6GT. Now my fog light indicator lamp works, the dome light has no switch, it don't creak, the DIC has both an instant and average MPG, and best of all it has an input jack on the radio for my iPod.
I have a cool device for that, my daughter
Dan, do you have any pics of your 6?

I agree about the cup holder.I have the 06 GT.
I hate the position of the cupholders. I like to put my arm on the center part and hold the shifter. I dont like the cheap plastic on the dash and center console.
I've only had the car a month, and so far thats all that bugs me. Love the car.
Hence the need for the cup holder!On the autobahn, doing 130mph you don't have time to take a sip.
