Hold the phone! I am positive that I saw exactly the same car parked in a private car park the other day. I only saw the back, from almost the same angle as that photo and I had absolutely no idea what it was. That raked back and spoiler look just the same. I wanted to ask you guys' opinion but I didn't think I would be able to explain the shape properly - but that photo speaks all the words I would need to. However they do not seel Pontiacs here and I very much doubt anyone would import one. Is this rebadged in any other countries?
 
Not that I know of, there are several cars on the Epsilon platform but nothing that looks similar to the G6. Fun fact, the car is built about a half mile from my house.
 
Tiburon > those you mentioned

I prefer it. Dont ask me why, I don't care that its the slowest either.
 
Pretty soon it won't be the slowest. Actually I bet it'll turn from slow dog to the all-round best performer of the group.
 
Would this vs Tiburon Coupe, Accord Coupe, Eclipse, and any other mid-size Coupe?

No - Tiburon is much smaller. The G6 coupe is up against coupes of sedans like the Toyota Solara, Nissan Altima coupe, and the Honda Accord coupe. Unlike Nissan and Honda, Pontiac also offers a convertible. Tiburon runs against vehicles like the Toyota Celica (which is no longer sold) and, to a lesser extent, the Mitsubishi Eclipse and low-level Ford Mustangs.
 
Nothing real special I suppose but neither one of these are something I see all that often.

CL500, the passenger in the rear seat took this picture since I felt it was unsafe to do it while driving.

And a older R32

That R32 is sexay!

And, you ask if I saw something good today? I saw my beautiful Camaro. <3 I don't care if everyone thinks he's ugly. :P He's my baby.

Is that Cordoba some sort of Holden?
Not at all. The Cordoba is a Seat Ibiza with a trunk and a couple of centimeters extra space on the back seat. Nothing but that.

It's a Seat. And it's a speed machine.👍
Not. :)



I think Casio was being sarcastic when he said on his post that he wanted the Cordoba.
 
Am i the only one here who recognizes that as Casio's Cordoba, he actually owns it? Im sure it was him that posted it in the 'post a pic of your real car' thread.....

anyway, i had a pretty damn good day for spotting compared to normal, for some bizzarre reason. It was an overcast day, cold too.

First i saw an orange Dodge Caliber as i was leaving work, they're fairly uncommon around here, pretty much all Dodge's are uncommon here (in the uk i mean). Didnt have my camera with me at work but i had to go get a package from the sorting office so popped home to get my camera and the note for the SO.

2 mins down the road, i caught something in my view which had me pulling into a petrol station to turn and find a spot to park.


Yay, the Audi S5 i saw a week or so back, this time parked, also it was parked conveniently near another of my favourite local cars


Little further down the road i find the V8 Vantage i saw the other week too, next to an SL350


missed out on an s2000 shortly after that. on the way home i popped into tesco to get some cash from the machine, on the way out i spotted i brand new STI coming in, went straight 180* round the roundabout and caught it.


Coincidentally it led me to my next spot.


A nice red M5 :)

On the way out of tesco i missed out on a Cayman S going the opposite direction round a roundabout, decided not to photo it as it'd be quite difficult!

So it was a day of pairs so to speak. :D
