Used 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix for Sale near Georgia
Few changes were made to the 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix, a mid-size sport sedan that touts its versatility as a family car and road performer. The GTP trim is gone in 2006, taken over by the simple GT name. Base Grand Prix has a 3.8-liter, 200-hp engine. The GT gets the supercharged 3.8 at 260-hp. If that isn't fast enough for you, the 5.3-liter, 303-hp V8 in the GXP should satisfy. The somewhat outdated 4-speed automatic overdrive is the only transmission available.
A Special Edition Package is offered in the 2006 Grand Prix GT, which basically adds more performance features, such as ground effects, bright exhaust tips, alloy wheels, body-colored grille, and a restyled center console. The GXP is definitely aimed at the driving enthusiast, who wants speed over practicality. Equipped with standard ABS, traction control, TAPshift, and stability control, it is also supposed to improve fuel economy by dismantling four of its eight cylinders when the car is simply cruising. ABS and traction are also standard on the GT, but an option on base models. OnStar is standard across the lineup, as is power windows and locks, air conditioning, a driver's information center, and fog lights. Add-ons include the favorite heads-up display, heated seats, and a sunroof. An already large trunk can be expanded by folding down the rear seats and the front passenger seat.
GXP power is fun, agree 2006 Grand Prix owners. Though they say its steering can have excessive torque pull and the ride can feel rough, the pickup and takeoff are unsurpassed. Drivers love the style of the Grand Prix, though agree the interior plastic downgrades the overall look. Handling is generally good, and all the standard features for a relatively low price are other standouts. Headroom is limited and rear legroom is only adequate for children if you're in the car for a long time. Though gas mileage is decent, gas consumption is quick. Some feel the 4-speed is inadequate for a sports sedan.
4.4 Overall rating
(68 reviews)It's pretty quick. It's a great car, pretty good-looking and spacious on the inside. Plenty of trunk space too. It's fun to drive, practical, and not too expensive. The only unreliable part is the plastic heater hose bypass elbows cracked and leaked out coolant, causing the heater to not work, then the engine to overheat. I replaced them with aluminum ones, so I shouldn't have that problem again. I get excellent fuel economy, up to 33 mpg when I drive carefully.
Pros: With 200 hp and 200 lb-ft 3.8l V6, this car hauls decently and accelerates on demand. This car definitely puts a grin on your face. The suspension and handling is also superb. Spacious car with tons of legroom. The Driver- Information-Control is great (Poor acronym DIC) Cons: With the 3.8L hard driving and stop and go driving kills the mpg to around 17. No Ipod or Aux adapter on any radio options. Needs another gear in the 4 spd Auto Summary: Fun, safe, and fast car with great styling. If you want more power go for the Supercharged 3.8l V6 or the insane 5.8L V8
Looks sharp, really sharp if it is in the blue green mist color. Has a tight sport suspension so it handles well but does not ride as nice as a Denali. Nice looking comfortable interior. Models with a sunroof might not work so well for people over 6' tall. Overall a very nice good looking and performing car.
I've owned this car for a year now and I havent had any problems so far. I am always ahead of the pack when the light turns green with little effort. It came with a drivers package (Dual exhaust, Remote ignition, leather wrapped steering wheel and shifter). The widetrak allows it to handle very well at high speeds, I had it gong 185 km/h with no problems. This model was produced in the award wining Oshawa GM plant and won a J.D. Power and Associates award for least problems reported per 100 cars for 2006.Overall this is one of the best cars I've ever driven and I would recommed this car.
I live everything about this car. It is fast, has a roomy interior, and plenty of neat little features most people would just love to have. The 3800 series III does not dissapoint, and the supercharger adds plenty more fun to the ride.
