The 2008 G5 is a compact sport coupe available in two trims, namely the base and the GT. The base G5 includes 15-inch steel wheels, air-conditioning, full power accessories, and remote keyless entry. In addition, a 60/40-split-folding rear seat, satellite radio an a CD/MP3 player with an auxiliary audio jack. To these, the GT trim adds 17-inch aluminum wheels, a sport-tuned suspension, foglamps, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, steering-wheel-mounted audio and cruise controls. Meanwhile, superb entertainment is provided by a Pioneer seven-speaker audio system. Furthermore, a six-CD changer, leather upholstery, heated front seats, a sunroof and remote vehicle starting are also available in both models. You may also personalize the Pontiac G5 by installing other accessories like 18-inch wheels, cat-back exhaust system, custom-colored interior lighting, high-mount spoiler and a body ground-effects package.
The base G5 is powered by a 2.2-liter inline four-cylinder with 148 horsepower and 152 pound-feet of torque. On the other hand, a 2.4-liter engine generating 141 horsepower and 167 lb-ft of torque powers the GT. Both trims are connected to a standard five-speed manual transmission with an option of a four-speed automatic transmission.
When it comes to safety, the GT has four-wheel antilock disc brakes while the base G5 comes with rear drums. Full-length side curtain airbags are standard too.
The 2008 Pontiac G5 gives adequate power and renders a smooth ride. However, this may not be a very good choice for those who look for an exciting behind-the-wheel experience because it lacks handling response and overall refinement.
