Pontiac's "G6 Performance Coupe" SEMA show car features a stainless grille and aggressively styled front and rear fascias, rocker package, and rear spoiler. Under the functional Ram Air hood is a 3.9-liter V-6 pumping out 270 hp thanks to upgraded heads and cam, and an after-cat exhaust. Braking is handled by Stainless Steel Brakes Corp. 13-inch discs with red three-piston calipers front and single piston calipers rear, that peak through 19x8.5-inch Forgeline wheels shod with 225/35ZR19 Michelin Pilot Sport tires. Inside, white gauges, tinted chrome accents, leather seats with red inserts, and custom carpeting and floor mats set apart the Pontiac from a stocker.
