This baby was a blast to drive. A peppy DOHC 4 banger kicked enough horses to have fun with and still get good gas mileage. She ran strong.

This car has a very well built engine. This car, for being older then me, gets going and stay going. The only thing is that when you're going fast the whole dash board vibrates and shakes, the steering wheel is loose and feels like its not attached to the car. But other then the visual of the car and the interior, the dash and steering wheel can be fixed. Under the hood is good!

The Grand Am didn't age very gracefully. After 15 years water started leaking in, and would form a puddle on the ground. The electronics were obviously out of date, but it ran quite well. In the years I had it, I only had to replace brake lights and an alternator. It was a well made American car that had a sturdy exterior.

it gets me around from point a to point b just fine. The only thing that sucked is the engine blew 2 days after the dealer warranty expired, but the new engine my mechanic put in works great. It's too fun to drive, just something that gets me to where i need to go.

lack of power, tight small space in back seat, great sound, base model lacks all the convience goodies. great for school driving and just getting around.
