It's pretty quick. It's a great car, pretty good-looking and spacious on the inside. Plenty of trunk space too. It's fun to drive, practical, and not too expensive. The only unreliable part is the plastic heater hose bypass elbows cracked and leaked out coolant, causing the heater to not work, then the engine to overheat. I replaced them with aluminum ones, so I shouldn't have that problem again. I get excellent fuel economy, up to 33 mpg when I drive carefully.

Pros: With 200 hp and 200 lb-ft 3.8l V6, this car hauls decently and accelerates on demand. This car definitely puts a grin on your face. The suspension and handling is also superb. Spacious car with tons of legroom. The Driver- Information-Control is great (Poor acronym DIC) Cons: With the 3.8L hard driving and stop and go driving kills the mpg to around 17. No Ipod or Aux adapter on any radio options. Needs another gear in the 4 spd Auto Summary: Fun, safe, and fast car with great styling. If you want more power go for the Supercharged 3.8l V6 or the insane 5.8L V8

Looks sharp, really sharp if it is in the blue green mist color. Has a tight sport suspension so it handles well but does not ride as nice as a Denali. Nice looking comfortable interior. Models with a sunroof might not work so well for people over 6' tall. Overall a very nice good looking and performing car.

I've owned this car for a year now and I havent had any problems so far. I am always ahead of the pack when the light turns green with little effort. It came with a drivers package (Dual exhaust, Remote ignition, leather wrapped steering wheel and shifter). The widetrak allows it to handle very well at high speeds, I had it gong 185 km/h with no problems. This model was produced in the award wining Oshawa GM plant and won a J.D. Power and Associates award for least problems reported per 100 cars for 2006.Overall this is one of the best cars I've ever driven and I would recommed this car.
