Pontiac Grand Prix OWNER RATINGS & REVIEWS

Form and Function
The Pontiac Grand Prix is an exemplary car for what it offers - a reasonable price, dependable operation, and even a little fun on the side. The legendary 3800 series V6 engine only puts out 200hp -but don't let that fool you, if you want to go, the Grand Prix will let you go. It also achieves 30 MPG highway, fantastic for a car of its class and age. In reality it seems to average about 26-28 MPG highway on long trips averaging 70 MPH. The interior is very functional, everything is quite comfortable, though it is quite plastic. The front seats are quite spacious - I'm 6+ FT and have no trouble fitting. The rear seats are a little tighter, and I would recommend long trips sitting there for adults. With regular maintenance it hardly ever finds itself in the shop for repairs. Something to note is that the stock wheels are especially prone to corrosion, which may lead to deflation in tires left unchecked. It drives very well and 'feels' very safe... although the base model lacks ABS - be aware of threshold braking during winter season driving. Altogether, the Grand Prix is a fantastic method of transportation considering its price point.

Tank car
This car is a fun car to own. It's a big, bulky, heavy vehicle, but smooth ride and comfortable. The seats are long and wide, bench style, to pile in lots of friends, stretch out and relax, and is great for trips. The trunk is large, great for toting around luggage for adventures, camping, road trips, and great for Christmas shopping! The car is long and wide, so watch out for curbs. Probably not the best on gas given its weight and size. Eventually, the transmission starting going, which I think was common for this car. After a while, it had a difficult time going into gear (had an automatic...shifter was one of those awkward bars off to the right of the steering wheel), so it had some problems shifting. It kind of felt like the shifter bar was going to break off, and then it would hiccup sometimes. But, overall, it is an enjoyable car to own to feel safe in and go on road trips!

One zippy family car.
I most enjoyed the feel of the drive. Such a comfortable driver's seat. Being able to have the sun roof for my little girls to stare out of. They were fascinated with it. I took this car well into the 200k mile mark, and it still drives. Maintenance for it was easy to learn and kind of fun too. It is more spacious than it looks. Having this car in the winter, put other trucks to shame.
Having the passenger seat fold down completely, with a tray on the back, helps when road tripping and needing a place to eat.
