  • EXCELLENT VEHICLE - SPORTY AND FAST - 1995 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    Excellent! Fast v6 engine, sporty inside and out, the GT is the hot one with the duel exhaust pipes and spoiler, fog lights (4 front lights), and excellent sound system! The GT sedan is the best performing vehicle of the Grand Ams. Fast and Fun!! Very durable and comfortable. Door Slams and horn sound are tough (not whippy like some other makes). Takes off fast with that v6 roar!

    longest Ive owned a car, 140,000 miles, no problems with engine, but electrical problems galore, automatic doors/window problems, radio, and brights problems, and noisy dash with lots of squeaks. Handles like a small car but heavey enough to make driving in snow and rain a breeze.

  • so far so good - 1995 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    Bought this car with 93,000 miles on it. It now has 102,000 on it my husband drives it 4 hours a day back and forth to work.4 times a week. So far so good. the only problems with it is: a leaky valve cover, and the fuse to the power locks just blew. Nothing big, both easy fixes. and the air conditioner needs charged.

  • 1995 Pontiac Grand Am 4 Dr. GT Sedan - 1995 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    Bought as my first car. It was ok for the first year. Then, things started going wrong. The first thing was my headlight switch broke. That was $130. Then the headlights went out. Another $100. Then the brakes needed replaced. So there went another $80. The windshield ALWAYS leaks when it rains and my floor always looks like a lake. The transmission started slipping. Everything leaks (i.e. transmission fluid, oil). It overheats when i am idle. Now it needs a new booster for the brakes. And i always had problems with the ABS warning light. I will never have another!

  • over 200,000 miles and still going.. - 1995 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    I bought this car new in 94 drove it until I bought another new car in 2007. Sold it with 159,000 miles on it to a young lady who drives to college, it now has over 200,000 miles and still gong strong. It had very few problems while I had it and she has had some minor work done in the last two years. I would have bought a new Grand Am if they were still being made.

  • Great Car - 1995 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    This was my first car. I drove it for three years before I decided to get an SUV. There were never any problems other than something with the ABS. Tires wore great after all the miles. Held up great. Every time I cleaned it, it looked NEW! Motor was extremely quiet and dependable. Got tons of looks back then!

  • Reliable for me - 1995 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    Had my 95 SE coupe since new. 3.1 l with auto tranny. Unfortunately the 5 speed was unavailable in California. Only things I have had to do were routine maintanence. One battery, one alternator, and one set of tires, and one set of brake pads for 50k is totally within reason. Combined city/hwy mileage has been steadily at 22-24mpg. Had as high as 33 in straight Hwy miles. Reliability has been excellant. Cant see why its resale value is so low. Im saving this thing for my daughter.

  • 3.1 = NO FUN - 1995 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    Hi, I bought my 95 Grand Am back in 97, with 15,000 miles and was very pleased with the style of the car and the gas mileage. I routinely got 34mpg on the highway. The only thing that was bad about the car was the engine. I replaced the head gasket 2 times and after the 3rd I decided it was "3 strikes Youre OUT" and junked it at 150,000 miles in July of 94. The body still looked like new, and everything else was in great mechanical shape. The first time the headgasket went it was under warranty, but #2 cost me $1,000 and I was told #3 was going to be more.
