Great Car

This is a great car. I recommend it highly! I bought mine about a year ago and since then I've been really happy with it. Unreal pickup for this "Old Person Car!" (I'm 23 yrs. old.) It sounds amazing too. It's got the Eaton Supercharger stock on it, which provides your pickup with that "jet plane" sound when the rpms are racing.

Very fun to drive. No problems with get up & go. The 3800 V6 uses regular gas and I get 23-25 MPG here in Phoenix, and have gotten up to 32 MPG on long highway trips. Heads Up display should be standard on cars, I've found that it's vary useful. Bose sound system sounds great. No problems yet, 15,000 miles into vehicle life. Great car for the money!

Good Car

This is a great car. It starts everyday and runs perfect. The Heads up display sometimes becomes faint in cold weather. The tire wear is very good. The performance is great for a car of this size. The car performs well in wet or snow conditions. The braking is very good on the car. The inside is very comfortable and spacious. The inside carpet is wearing very fast. The seats look and feel like new. The mileage hasn't changed since day one 20-28 depending on traffic. Overall I think this is a great car for the dollar.

Fun car, hindered by GM

The 3.8L makes this a pretty fun car to drive, however, as a GM "cookie cutter" car, it suffers from subpar engineering and build quality. Panels like to fall off, something that could've been prevented with a better plastic. The powertrain is generally reliable, but that's about it. You can eek pretty good mpg out of this car, but it's a bit of a pain to do so. If great MPG is your priority, look elsewhere, but don't worry about this car burning holes in your pocket.

Best Car on the Road

To the idiot writing the first review: brakes,tires and ROTORS, are normal wear items on any vehicle. My Grand Prix is the best purchase I have ever made. The Pontiac 3.8 L engine is by far the best production engine ever made. If it is well mantained it will never wear out. I've had mechanics tell me they've seen 3.8's with the oil run out of them and seize not even need new rings! They run strong with excellent fuel economy and power - what more is there to want??
