Used Pontiac Bonneville for SaleNationwide

Out of the box and into a sleeker body, the luxurious 1992 Pontiac Bonneville gets a much-needed modern updating to its exterior. Gone are the squared-off edges, in favor of more rounded, sloping lines. The base LE trim is dropped, and the 1992 Bonneville now is offered as an SE, a sportier SSE, and the supercharged SSEi. The SE and SSE are powered by a revamped 3.8-liter V6 that now gets 170-hp. The supercharged SSEi tweaks that engine to put out 205-hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. All are paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Also new in 1992 is standard dual airbags, to comply with new government regulations. ABS brakes are standard on both the SSE and SSEi, and an option on the SE. The SSEi also comes with traction control. As the top-of-the-line trim, the SSE and SSEi basically offered the same features, with the main difference being the supercharged engine. The SE was now more like last year's LE, with basic features such as fog lights, power windows and locks, and air conditioning, and an opportunity to purchase more options. The 1992 Bonneville is a full-size sedan for six people, and drivers say the roominess, combined with the comfortable seats, turns it into a spare bedroom. It's smooth and relaxing for long rides, and the new engines are fast and fun to cruise on the highway. It even handles hills well. The Bonneville is solid and indestructible as well, and the SSEi has the feel of a sports car. Disappointed owners report problems with the electrics.
