ProsThe feel of supercharged boost ConsRoom for the family and comfy ride

Fwd Muscle Car — Its a sleeper, Wolf in sheep's clothing. A lot of low end grunt with a Supercharged 3.8L V6. Capable of high 20s MPG and plenty of room for 5 adults. Looks sporty but not very aggressive. The chassis is solid, Drive train is Powerful and robust, Interior lacks attention to detail but is comfy. Braking and high speed cornering leave room for improvement but the car is nimble for its size. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

ProsThe engine and looks are amazing! ConsI haven't encountered any negatives

Impressive — I really enjoy this car because you have to room and space to modify. I bought mine stock and it had decent horsepower and i loved the look of the car, it looks sleek but mean. I think GM did a great job with the stability of the car, there is no lean at all. I havent encountered any mechanical issues at all and I have done a lot of modifications to it, that just shows it has a strong built motor that can handle more horsepower than what it was designed for. The car is very fun to drive and show off. Stock, the gas mileage is decent for a large sedan but now that it is modded its a little iffy. I enjoy the car tremendously and it is the best purchase I have ever made. I own the GTP Special Edition and love it, it definatly will not be traded in. The super charger puts out 10 lbs of boost which is really good for a super charger that is stock to a car. The car hauls and sounds great, the exhaust they manufactured with the car is wonderful, you can actually hear it!! This is the car you have got to check out, it is nothing like I have ever experienced! Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

ProsHuge trunk for an awesome system Consfogged over headlights
55
Grand Prix Gt — I've had three Grand Prixs. This one is lacking on the acceleration dept.it just takes it a little longer to accelerate then my last one but it handles well. There is no rust a few minor scratches, can barely see them unless your really looking. Very fun to drive. Very good on gas. Needed all around pads and rotors, the headlights are also fogged over as are the rest of the grand prixs. Yes, i would recommend this car to my friends. | ||

ProsPerformance (14.3 @ 96 mph stock!), ride, room. Decent highway mileage (31) for a car of this size. Good in snow as well, the traction control does a good job when the roads get nasty. ConsBuild quality, mechanical issues.

Great Performance, But Build Quality Is Disappointing. — I bought my '01 GTP Sedan brand new, and though I love the styling, performance, and features & options, I'm not happy with the fit & finish of this car. Mechanically, it hasn't been too bad, but it has required a few repairs, such as; New R/F wheel bearing and fuel pump at 7,800 miles, new L/S CV shaft at 25,000 miles.

Looks Sharp — Good looking car,but have already had to many problems.At 58,000mi. the transmisstion had to be replaced. At 75,000mi. the fule pump began to act up,now it dose not register the proper amount of fule in the tank.At 90,000mi.the wheel bearings had to be replaced.At 95,000 the fan switch and eng management system seams to be on the blink.

Nothing But Problems From The Beginning!!! — I bought this car brand new. I have had nothing but major problems with it, since it had only 18K on it. It is always things that mechanics tell me I shouldn't have wrong with it, with the amounts of mileage that I have on it. I had a Grand AM before it, that was also nothing but trouble. That one always had electrical problems. I made a promise that I will NEVER, ever again, buy an american car, and am sticking to it. I will be looking at Honda's this week. I will never suggest a Pontiac to anyone!! Owner for 6 years, 0 months Miles Driven per Year:12,000 | ||

My Grand Prix — I love this car, yeah it may be the standard stripped model and it does not have a racing engine, but for what I paid for, this car is amazing. Since my purchasing of the car on September 2, 2009, I have put in a 300 watt 2-way subwoofer in the trunk, a brand new kenwood 300 watt stereo with AMP, a new full exhaust, new tires, some blue accented lights inside and more. It has a great strong build and The body style has alot of potential. I painted the front under grill and the side skirts semi-flat black and Im going to do a solid stripe along the whole bottom. This car runs amazing and very comfortably seats 5 people. Gas mileage is great, I get around 22-27 mpg on average. Putting 93 in the tank instead of 87 really brings out the power in the car, you really feel a pull when you hit the gas and it takes off. The engine has a pretty distinct sound for not having almost anything done to it but a new stainless steel exhaust and some minor work to the block, but it sounds great when you really hit the gas. The build quality is pretty good, My only problem with mine so far is the front bumper. It is a little bit shaky, mostly because it has been backed up into about 5 times since september 09 when I bought it. But nonetheless it has a sloid build and a great look. The car is really fun to drive, being so comfortable and big you get a great smooth ride and the handling, especially with my Yokohoma touring S tires on it, is flawless. I give this car a thumbs up, especially for a first time driver like I was. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
