hey guys,

proud owner of a audi a6 but i think its time to move to a g8, just curious as to what you guys thought of an 09 g8 3.6 v6 . i live in canada with harsh winters which is why my quattro is nice not sure if picking up a RWD over quattro is the right choice but the g8 has had my eye for a while now. just wondering what you all thought of the car if any of you have any advice on a model or year id love to hear what you have to say

Why would you want a RWD anything in any kind of harsh winter?

Get the G8 for summer, and keep the Audi for winter driving.

yeah i was thinking that for sure but driving an audi in a manitoba winter realllllly reeks havoc on the body work due to all the sand and salt we put down

Well, keep the Audi for summer, and find a beater Subaru AWD for winter then.. problem solved!

i do not recommend u get a pontiac that new

Pontiac newer grand prix's, g8's, g6's, and so on all suck go

i no 3 people who all had a pontiac g8 one was a 2008 one was a 2009 and im unsure of the other one's year

but they were well maintained oil changed regularly, engine all kept up nice and clean never raced and never treated bad but all 3 of those cars had the same issue,

after they hit past 70,000 to 100,000 miles they all got blown engines

i no a teacher who bought a brand new 2007 pontiac g6 and had it to 23,000 miles and the engine blew

i dont recommend going for pontiacs over 2003.
