a great car overall
My car has had no problems so far and it has 90000 miles on it. It drives like it's brand new.
Grand Prix GT
The Pontiac Grand prix Gt 4 door is clearly The best Sedan I have owned, I give it a 5 star rating for reliability and fuel economy. Thank You Justin
Sexy Car
My car had 122k on it when I bought it and ran and looked brand new. I have the "Special Edition" package, which basically is the paint, wheels and sound system, and the stickers. The only problem I have ever had with any of my Grand Prix's has been alternators. I have put one in every GP I've owned (except this one, knock on wood). Other than that, it's a great ride. It's my sexy car!
Solid Investment
This car is a joy to own. I have 120,000 miles on mine and it still gets up and goes. The dash and controls are convieniently placed and the car has a generally sporty feel.
Too much to fix
I got the car from my mom with only 62,000 miles on it. In the 20 months I had it, I had to replace the drivers side door handle and lock, a/c compressor, radiator, H2O pump, drivers side window motor (which went out AGAIN a year later) and a tie rod PLUS normal maintenance (battery, tires, struts, brakes). But when the infamous intake manifold leak appeared, I realized I had spent $5000.00 ($250 a month) on this car and now it needed a repair that could be up to another $1k... I donated it and bought a new car. Other cons: the dash had a weird gooey black substance on it, the paint was faded and peeling, plastic body cladding panels falling off... it was a sad car.
