The more I drive this car the more I like it. I love the power this big car has left when driving at 55+. The improved headlights are great too. I've owned SUV's for the last 5yrs, this is my first car since my single days in a sports car. I'm impressed so far with this car.

I love all Pontiacs. This is my second Pontiac. My first one, 96 Grand Am GT, was crap. I decided to try again. There are many electrical problems, which is typical of Pontiacs. The lights for the controls on the dash work when they want to. Minus the electrical issues, I love this car. More than most Pontiacs. I am 22 and do not feel like I am driving a grandma car because the sporty styling makes up for it being a boat.

My father bought this car and unfortunately he died 5 months after. I put car on the road 5 months later at 18,000 some miles in mar 05. Couple months later inside dome lights stopped working and battery died. Took it to dealer told them I thought there were electrical problems they said it was just a fuse, replaced battery. 3 months later inside dome lights quit working again. Awhile after that, driver side rear window just fell down one day. Passenger side front and rear power switches stopped working, heated seats stopped working and keyless entry alarm. Now at 69,946 miles car has bad vibration in front end and gas pedal at high speeds usually 55 mph and up. Just replaced wheel bearing and helped

I bought this car new four and a half years ago. It now has 65,000 miles on it and all that it has required of me is to change the oil and filter. The original tires, brakes, even windshield wipers are still installed. The vehicle is garaged and run primarily on interstates at 60 to 80 mph. It gets about 30 mpg on the interstate. Around town, the mileage drops down to low to mid twenties. Although the depreciation rate is fairly steep on this car the actual dollars depreciated are far less than my wife's 2003 Lexus. The only complaint I have regards the Traction Control System; it is far to easy to spin the tires at take off on wet pavement.
