Welcome, V6 or 4?

BTW, they are more like long lost cousins. :)

Nice. Welcome to the board.

Every once in a while when I'm at the dealership, one of the service advisors call my car a g6 too.

Just yesterday I saw the G6 equivilant of the GXP rear valence that many of us G8 owners upgrade to. It looked strikingly similar to mine.

It looked something like this:

Ah nice. It was probably the GXP rear fascia on the 6. But the one in that pic is the AIT kit. Its high on my list of things to get. Along with G8 or GTO wheels.

Welcome. I had a 2006 G6 with the panoramic sunroof (crimson red with black/beige interior) before my G8. That first pic is really good, nice shot.

Very nice. I also have the panoramic roof with the beige interior as well! Why are you from? This all sounds very familiar like I have had this convo before. A guy at ORP used to have a 6 and then went to a G8.

So I got to ask. The vauxhall wheel caps......I am getting **** left and right for them on my other forum. Are they really that bad?

I am really thinking about getting new wheels so I may not have to deal with them for long.

I'm from Arizona, though I'm not the guy your thinking of. I was leasing my G6, and when it was up, went for the G8.

I had the 06 G6 Gt before my TBSS. Dr. Speed makes a great CAI. I also then replaced the rear valance with the GTP and placed duel 3 inch straight pipes. IT had a great sound at start up and reving but it had a horrible droning noise when you were cruising at high speeds. g6performance.com has alot of great people who have moded their G6.
