Used 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix Consumer Reviews
Nice car
I bought my 2002 Grand Prix off eBay in 2004 after my 1999 Grand Prix was totaled. It had about 32,000 miles on it. All was well until 2007 when I spent $3500 in maintenance including $2300 for a new transmission. So maintenance is getting expensive. I have 68,000 miles on it now. But since I paid $11,000 for it I still feel like this vehicle is a good value.
Typical GM product
I owned a 1979 Grand prix and it was an awesome car...They should build them like they used to. I switched to chevrolet after bad experiences with other GM vehicles (firebirds)and after I totaled (not my fault) my camaro I decided I wanted a larger safer car so I bought my 2002 Grand Prix SE.. It is a good riding car but uncomfortable to ride in. The seats should be softer and should hug your body more. I was just hit with an unexpected but obvious problem with the Grand Prix. The bearings went out on my front driver side at 68,000 miles and cost me over $500 to repair. From what I was told by several repair shops this is a COMMON problem with these cars. Seems GM has some work to do!!!!
Lovin' It!!!
The 1999 Grand Am was the first car I ever owned...went with the intention of buying the Grand Prix and am so happy I went back and did it!! The cars performance is great, no problems, no issues. As a female above average height, 5'10 I'm thrilled with the leg room. Every other car I test drove included some SUV's, my knee hit the steering wheel each time I went for the brake. It's roomy and I find it extremely comfortable yet it's still fun to take out for a ride on the highway!
Great Sporty Car
The GT is a very smooth, fast riding car. Lots of front leg room and width room. Fun to drive. If your looking for a 4 door car that's sporty and young looking - this should be your first and only choice.
Underestimated
Under valued for its performance and raw appeal. The GTP has everything a yupie could want and your teenage son.
