Nice
This car is awesome. It exceeded my expections. It has good power and great traction. The car inside and out look great. The Ram Air system is great with this car. A bigger engine like a small V8 would be nicer addition with the Ram Air system.
Very nice!
Well, this is my first car in my life. I have had it for a day, but oh my, is it awesome. It looks GREAT at night! It accelerates very well, and you feel really sporty in it. Sound is great from engine and also stereo sound is good. Definite buy.

Nice car!
I bought this car used for my wife. She had an '85 2-door sedan SE with a V- 6 and we both loved that one. This one a 2005 4 door sedan with a V-8 was in great shape. Paid $8500 from a private individual (through E-bay), but still got stung with sales tax in Michigan. Care had 20,000 miles. The V-6 is nice, but seems to not be as peppy as the 85 was. This one has the spoiler, but no sunroof. Had to replace a power window switch first thing. Warranty work. One other issue is the starter sticks ocassionally. We'll have to take that in before the warranty expires. Can't complain, Good car, great price and nice gas mileage.
NEVER will I get a Gm car again!
I have had my Grand Am for 10 years. It was my first car. My mother bought me it for my first car. So I never had any time to get a new car due to college and I had a baby at age 22. But it was an excellent car until 105,000 miles. Then things started going wrong. At 105k, I had to get a leak repaired from the transmission. Then at 109k, I had to get a new radiator. After awhile, it was OK. But then at 117k miles, I had to get a WHOLE new engine due to it overheating BADLY. Then at 125k miles, I had to get a new ignition coil. 134k miles, it needed a new head gasket. Currently at 136k miles, it needs a catlytic converter. Very problematic. All of my car repairs were on a credit card :(. So i spent over $2k trying to keep this car strong. Too bad it's a crappy car.

Good for the Price
Don't get me wrong, I love my car. But the only thing I have a problem with is the back window noise. It sounds like the windows are down slightly when you're doing interstate driving, gets pretty annoying. Other than that, its roomy, sporty, and has great take off.
