I'm putting this on my watch list so I can see what happens... and geez negative feedback for not paying on a $3.00 item? Damn.... $27,000 hmm I've gotta check but I think that's a nice $3-$4,000 markup....

I just went to the pontiac homepage to see the car and it doesn't look really special IMHO.

It's not IMO, it's a redone Grand Am that finally got placed on a new chasis.

Jesus, I didn't know nothing about Pontiac before this thread but now I think I've found the car maker with the WORST interior designers EVER. The Bonneville is fucking tacky :-/

wasn't the whole point of Oprah giving those cars away was that each person in the audience really needed a new car? wth?

True, but she left all the "winners" with the taxes :D

i think the g6 looks pretty nice, actually. and having an american car that doesn't look ugly is quite an achievement, especially in the category of sedans.

Hang out with Steve.
I'd sell ANY car I won, regardless of what kind it was. I wouldn't want to have to come up with cash for the taxes on it. It's like a bonus -- you're taxed at the rate as if it were your regular income, so that means highest tax bracket, or 35%. If the car was worth $27,000, that'd be almost $9500 cash due in taxes. And that's just Federal! Forget it!
