Joey Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 My mom pointed out an ad in the paper last week for a brand new 2009 Pontiac SV6 for under 15K. Our 1999 Plymouth Voyager was on a downward spiral so Paul and I headed over and took a look and enquired about a trade in on the van. Monday I drove away in this beauty. Have you ever seen a prettier engine ??? I'm very happy with the drive of this vehicle. I don't like cars because I'm used to the van and truck and like sitting up high. The 240 HP motor is a bonus. She flies I'm so spoiled It smells like brand new car Thanks hon! Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Posted March 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Thanks guys! Ya Wayne, we ended up getting the 7 year extended transferrable warranty also. I travel about 6kms to work each day so no way I'll ever go over in kms. They even have a "parking lot ding" warranty, free for 3 months. Plus one year of Onstar and an onboard hands free phone with 130 minutes free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeJ Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Wow great deal, now is the time to buy before prices start heading up. My Dad has a 2004 Montana I think that is the predecessor of your new van and it still looks and drives like new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUSION Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Nice van. For anybody else in the market Applewood Chevy/Cadillac has the Chevy version of that van on for $13,500 cash purchase brand new. They have about 7 of them lined up out front with the $13,500 price plastered accross the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I opted for the SV6 because of the tinted windows and floor mats and a few other extra's for $500 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bow slayer Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 good thing you got the extended warranty you will need it. I have had one for 2 years now and if not for the warranty I would have spent about 3 grand on it.It has a lot of issues and once the warranty is gone so is it. I hope you have better luck with yours ,hopefully they have improved since the 07 model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernie Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Nice looking van Joey. They do have a nice ride and they handle OK too. I know what you mean about seating position too. Don't care for driving a car anymore either. Well unless it was a late 60's Chevelle SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
