    If you go with any of the G's I would get the G8 so either a Grand Prix or G8!

    Between those two I'm all over the '05 GTP. Reasons? More aftermarket support, in fact more support in general; the Grand Prix is a bigger car; the Grand Prix HAS A TRUNK (fold the roof and see how much room you have left) in the G6; and the Grand Prix will have a higher resale value down the road. A hardtop convertible is a "niche" car that won't have the same appeal to a broader audience that the Grand Prix will, IMO.

    the g6 is ok, presonally I like the G6 GXP one with the hood scoops...hard to find, maybe its a 09 that has the scoops...but anyways, defently the GTP FTMFW! but also consider a GTO man, lots of power and if ur looking for a P***** magnet, nothing like having a Pontiac that blows the doors off mustangs....A 05-06 GTO will get u lots of coochie...U couldnt run them over to keep them off the goat

    Unfortunately, the convertibles only have 227 HP instead of 240.

    IMO, I'd avoid any convertible that wasn't designed from the ground up without a roof. Chopping the roof off of a car designed as a hard top usually results in excessive body flex. At least drive it with the top down over some rough roads to see if it's acceptable to you.

    As a comparison, these two cars (the Grand Prix and the G6 convertible) are in two completely different categories. Do you need a large midsize sedan, or do you want a convertible?

    Buy something very old for very cheap. Then use the extra cash to rebuild the car to use everyday. New drivetrain, suspension, interior. Old car style with new car comforts!
