Used 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Sedan Consumer Reviews
Nice Looking ride, but....
Have had the sled in for more than a few issues. Noise in power steering seems to be most persistant problem. Also, driver side window stripping comes loose all the time. Great "spunk" for the money, lots-o-fun to drive, good power, like the exterior styling - but, I've had some issues...
*****2000 Pont. Grand Prix GT 4dr*******
As the owner of a 94 Pont. GP SE 4dr previously, to a 2000 Pont. GP GT 4dr I have to say is a HUGE improvement. The 94 lasted 195,000 miles before needing an engine overhaul, and required continous dealer visits for plugs seizing in place every 10,000 and over $5,000 in repairs (inc a new tranny which is VERY expensive)between 140,000 and 175,000 (2yrs total) **HOWEVER** The 2000 Pont. is a VERY different tale. I bought the vehicle from a non pontiac dealer in 2003 for $11,000 with 44,000 miles on it, to date I have put on 31,000 additional miles without a PROBLEM!!! Knock on wood....BEWARE of the mpg though...this car EATS gas..I found the computer mpg gage 100% accurate!!! LOVE THIS CAR!!!

I do love my car
I've had my car going on 3 years now, for almost a year I've had trouble with the key getting stuck in the ignition to where i had to use a nail to put underneath the steering wheel compartment and stick it inside this hole to get my key to come out, I'm not really sure why this happens but someone I know who has the same car as I do has the same problem. To roll down the passenger window from my driver side sometimes it doesn't work and then a few minutes later it does, but other than these problems I do love my car I just recently got brakes for it and the tires were still in great shape. I love the look of it and it is my first vehicle, I got it when I turned 18.
NIce Car
I would definitely go with the 3.8 L engine. It is reliable except that the intake WILL go after 150,000 miles. Other than that, it is a reliable car. Mine has 192,000 miles and is only now beginning to struggle.
Fun car
i loved this car. the only problem we had was the transmission went at about 130K. but this is a great car. it's big enough for a family of 4. it's pretty quick. and it's fun to drive. our's got totaled last year cause some idiot hit it, and i still miss it.
