As the sporty, performance-oriented mid-size car from the Pontiac brand of General Motors, the G6 made its debut with the 2005 model-year entry. The GT, however, was the sportier of the two trims introduced, the other being a base "Sedan." Although automotive information website Edmunds.com recommends later entries due to more refinement, the 2005 G6 GT is still a good choice for the more budget-minded.
