  • GM denotes General Maintainence - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    What a horrible vehicle. From the day i bought it, it was in the shop for an intake gasket then, a fuel pump, brakes, constant emissions problems, power seat, a/c, cracked exhaust manifold and the problems continue. No wonder imports retain value. With the quality of gm cars, there is no competition for imports. Keep-up the "great" work GM.

  • Good car but theres better out there - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    Its a nice little car, but the quality could be better. Our company has leased many of these cars and we have had numerous electrical and brake problems. Other than that, not a bad little car. Personally I would get a Saturn, Honda, or Nissan instead (If I had to buy one).

    This is my second car, and my second Pontiac, and Im going to stick with them. V6 has good power, but very smooth. Only downside is the gas mileage could be better with todays prices.

  • Cool Car - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    All i can say is I have had this car for about a year and bought it with about 89000 miles on it. It runs great and over all is a fun car. I have had to fix a few things but nothing that would not be expected to be fixed at this kind of miliage. I drive the car over 150 miles a day to work and not yet once have had a problem with brake downs ect.. I would suggest this car to anyone.

  • Great first car - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM

    Ive had this car now for three years and not one problem besides the usual oil change, and new tires.

  • A beautiful disaster - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    I fell in love with the Grand Am when my grandmother owned one, and let my family use it at the time our old Plymouth broke down. I threw the car up on a pedestal and practically worshiped the idea. Today, Im here to tear that idea down. Since buying the car LESS than a year ago when it only had 50,000 miles on it, it has given me nothing but hell. The brakes are poor, three power windows broke down, the head gasket went ($850), tie rod good-bye, CD player Error 20-ed out... and the PassLock system believes Im the enemy! Granted, the car is fun to drive and looks sleek, but the amount of money invested is NOT worth the pain unless $3000 is in your budget in a six month span.

    Bought new in 2000. Still driving to work daily after 67K miles. Excellent engine -- plenty of get up and go for a 4-cylinder, excellent gas mileage. Very pleased with this car overall. Fed crash ratings overall are good.

  • Great Car!!! - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    I absolutly love my Grand Am. I have had only one problem at the dealership - - clogged fuel injectors and (i am told) that is probably the previous owners fault in putting cheap gas in the car. Its a blast to drive and in my humble opinion, although I might be in the minority, it looks GREAT!

  • Nice looking, poorly built - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    Pontiac does not stand behind their vehicles. While the car looks great, its a nightmare to own. I promise myself that I will never buy from GM again (new or used). This car has endless electrical problems. My next car will be Japanese! There seems to be too many known problems with this car (in general) but not recognized by Pontiac / General Motors.

  • My black Grandam - 2000 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    It is a fun car to drive, light steering...easy handling of radio devices while your fingers rest on a divider and your elbow on the arm rest. love the sunroof..and the overall look and feel of the car. The spedometer looks great in the sport-car-like design...easy to monitor your speed --I still use a radar detector.
