Nice G6! I definately like it.
Concerning it vs. the CSVT, I am not sure how fast it is, but I will leave you with this. My mom has an 02 Grand Am GT, 175hp (only mod is a K&N) and 4spd auto, and it feels much faster than my CSVT. Thing is, at the track, it's .4 seconds slower. I don't know how the G6 stacks up, but I'm just saying how it feels isn't the best measure of acceleration.
Either way, I definately like the G6. If I was looking for a new car in that class, it would be my choice.
