Love the car, hate the tires - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By icshadows - October 10 - 2:00 amPretty good get up & go and passing ability. Great for cruising down the highway; I put 3900km on mine the first 4 days I had it, including 12-hours of driving each on the first and last day. Ride was comfortable and relaxing. The ABS breaks work great and quieter than in ABS systems Ive seen in older cars. Got the Monsoon stero system and quite enjoy it. It can really crank out the music. Its first winter it sat in a parking lot all day at sometimes - 28C weather and always started like a charm.

Great Value For The Money! - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By MemoryGuy - October 2 - 10:00 amThis web site was extremely helpful while I was shopping for a new car. I did lots of research before buying the Grand Am GT and feel I made the right decision. It looks great, has impressive interior space, loaded with lots of useful features, excellent performance and handling, and is priced right. As someone who drives 25,000 miles per year, this car fits all my needs. Test drive one for yourself - you wont be disappointed.

Great Car, but not Perfect - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By Grand Am Driver - July 9 - 10:00 amThis car is a joy to drive everyday. The ram air V6 that I have preforms beyond my expectations for an american car, as does the sporty suspension. In black, my car has earned the nickname of "Batmobile" among most of my friends. The feeling of driving this car on winding country roads can only be paralleled by the likes of small sports cars and expensive import sport sedans. All in all, a bargain at only $22,000.

Sad to say bye - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By Robert Nolan - March 8 - 9:56 pmthis silver 4d gt ram air, all leather,monsoon sound, sun roof, power everywhere, really made a statement,especially after I installed Altezza tail lamps and added some pinstriping. Now this is my wifes car, she is a middle aged teenager,and loved the power,and auto daylight headlights, purchased it at 23,000 miles certified, (just traded it off on a 2005 Chrysler pacifica touring) at 57,000 miles,absolutely a problem free car!!!! added brakes in front and protenza tires, thats it! great gas mileage, Id have kept it a lot longer, but my wife has been diagnosed with MS and it is a strain to get in and out now, as a sports car are low to the ground. Fun car..but had to go #&^%*@!

Surprisingly reliable...except... - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By BWM - January 28 - 8:30 pmI have a 2002 Grand Am SE1, with the special tropical teal color. I bought it used from Enterprise at 20k miles. I thought for sure Id have some problems, since it was a rental.... nope none... It went up to 60k miles before the blower motor resistor went, then at 80k miles the head and upper manifold gaskets went, due to DEXCOOL turning into acid and eating the gaskets and clogging my radiator. Fortunately, the car is easy to work on and I actually replaced the gaskets myself and the car runs great again. Now at 90k miles, nothing else major has broke... Only needed brakes twice, though now the shocks are starting to squeek and the A/C clutch is worn. But everything else is great.

A great car at an affordable price. - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By Michaelangelo - January 20 - 9:13 pmThe new 2002 Pontiac Grand Am drives like a true sportscar. The coupe looks very nice, and is very fun to drive. It has a great stereo system in it as well. I am planning on upgrades upgrades onto it, even though it is extremely nice the way it comes from the factory. The car could come with a larger engine, and the sc/t spoiler should take place of the current spoilers for gt models. The wheels are the best wheels I have seen that acually come with the car. The ride is exceptionally smooth, and it is a great value for what you pay for the vehicle.

A great first car - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By Flash3377 - January 10 - 10:00 amThis car has had only a few minor problems while ive had it, and it was the cadalidic converter that went out, but my car was still under warranty, the rest was my bad cause i ran over some nails cuz my tire blew out. Other then that its a great car for a high school students first car, and looks like it will last me through college.

Went Back and got another - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
By kdoyea - October 20 - 10:00 amI foolishly got rid of my 2000 red GT, when I wanted to go down a car, (we had too many). However we have gone back and got one now, 2 yrs later, in an awesome color they did not have on my 2000. POLO GREEN, it is gorgeous! However, I was a little bummed they changed the mirrors to be like the Aleros, ie: no vent thru, like the Grand Prixs, and they changed the side ribbing/cladding a little, but the new polished wheel style and monsoon system is great!
