Used 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Consumer Reviews
A Nice Balance
It's not a vette nor will it ever be regardless of how much money you dump into it. It is, however, a remarkably fast car for a surprisingly low price. As a bonus, you can seat 5 comfortably.
Plan to own it a decade
Bought this car in August 2000 and haven't had a single problem with it. Mileage is as advertised, and power is fine. Survived a wreck with it when another driver turned out in front of us and the car took all the punishment. Dealer repaired it and it drives like brand new. Would buy another one when we're in the market. Used the GM Card rebate program when we bought it and saved $3,400.
Terrific for the $$
Recent past cars include Lexus LS400, Infiniti I30, Mercedes SDL; but this is the best car for the money I've ever driven. Leased new in Dec 99, been back to the dealer one time in over 3 yrs for a short in the interior lighting. Fun to drive, handles well, lots of great toys, good appearance for price. A real winner.
S & K Pontiac Sucks!!!!
I bought my first new car in 2000. I replaced a tire that blew at 12,100 miles and the dealership wouldn't back it. This year alone, I replaced front wheel bearings, rear struts and my transmission went out. Not just a little but the planetary gear locked up and came apart, ruining my entire transmission. The dealership and the corporate people offered me 15% of a over $3000 bill. Needless to say this will be the last time I buy a pontiac in Springfield, IL.
So far, very good.
Runs strong for a non-GTP GranPrix. Some interior build miscues but good paint and great styling. Long drives can be a bit uncomfortable especially in the back seat.
