My (wife's) new G6

Due to an unfortunate accident involving my sister-in-law driving my wife's '04 Sentra, we found ourselves in the market for a new car last week. We looked at an Astra, HHR, Mazda5, Sonata, Malibu, Milan, and G6. We were nearly sold on the Milan, but I got my wife to go look at the G6 since we had already planned to do so. The Milan was better equipped with Sync, cruise, Remote Keyless Entry, and an iPod input for about the same price, but it couldn't touch OnStar and GM's 100,000 mile powertrain warranty.

Our car is Blue Gold Crystal Metallic. It doesn't have cruise or remote keyless entry, but the dealer will be adding those Monday. Oddly enough, they only had 4 on the lot, 2 coupes and 2 convertibles. We were about to leave when the salesman, (Coach, they called him) went to look on the back of the lot. There was one sedan back there. We test drove it and he found one we wanted on a dealer lot not far away.

We really like it, even my wife who is a domestic hater. I hope to have some pics of it soon.

BTW, is it out of the ordinary for a dealer to install RKE and cruise control?
