Fun-to-Drive Affordable 4 Door

I purchased a 2002 GT Sedan with every option. The GT's 3800 V6 is one of the best engines ever built - great low end torque, good gas mileage and legendary reliability. Add a smooth shifting transimission and sure footed handling, this car eats up the road. Overall quality fit and finish is below most imports, but look at the price....it's a great value. Besides, after 8 months and 10K miles, I have had zero problems. Looking for a sporty, affordable 4 door that won't break the bank ? Check out the GP.
Great MPG and Performance

When I see ads for a 4 cylinder Hondas that gets 30 mpg highway, I have to laugh as I'm having so much more fun in my GTP. This car is not only a sleeper, it gets gas mileage in the range of Japanese cars but it has 280 pounds of torque to play with. True, the interior plastic parts could have been better, but the mechanical failures of my brother's Accord make me glad I bought a Pontiac. The GTP is well-known for long-term reliability and most of the negative posts you see here are not representative of the total population. I had a GM 3.8 liter with 250,000 miles and not a single mechanical issue. Don't doubt Pontiac's build quality or engineering, these cars are a steal @ <$10K!
I love my new car!

Granted, I don't know much about cars...but I have been driving this car for almost a year and it has been wonderful. The ride is smooth and comfortable for the long drive I have to work. I don't think that I can ever buy a car without Heads Up Display again. I no longer have to look down when changing my speed...or my radio controls. Also, the car has so many more features than any other for your dollar. The only problems are watching speed...a smooth ride makes you forget how fast you're going and hitting the breaks on a heavy car like this means you have to leave quite a bit of stopping distance!
Still love this car

Have owned this car for 6 years now. It's still a great ride. Have had some minor issues. Fan switch for A/C & heat broke. Had to install new resistor $200. Windshield fluid motor burned out. Another $200. Brakes were garbage at 35k. Besides that, just the basics. It's a great car. Need to get an SUV for my family. I own 3 cars, but this is the last 1 I'd trade in. It has lots of power, when you need it. Plan on enjoying it for years to come.
Please don't buy one
