  • Great Car - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    This is my 2nd Grande Am my first was a 99 4dr SE1 wich was totaled in a multi- car accident. After my wife and 2 children both under the age of 2 walked away from the crach without so much as a scratch or bruise we decided we would only buy another Grande Am. We got a bit of an uprgrade buying a GT and i have been thrilled with the car to this day. I would recomend this car to anyone. It has a great price for what i can dicribe only as a great family spaorts car.

    I purchased the 4-dr GT1 75th Anniversary Edition about 8 months ago. It has been the best decision I have made. The car absolutly rocks. Everyone that has driven it has been amazed about the great pick up and how smooth it rides. I can not say enough great things about this car.

  • More car than what you expect! - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM

    I really like this car. This is the first Pontiac I have ever owned - and it has been fantastic! I have owned a wide range of cars, trucks and suvs and I must say this is just as fun, just as comfortable and in my opinion just as well built as my Mercedes. I have put just over 11000 miles on it - and have pushed the little v6 and the cars abilities as far as I would dare - and found that performance and handling was great. Only problem Ive had has been a little section of the trunk weather strip which wants to fall off.

    I bought this car used and have only had to replace the ignition switch. This has been the only reason it left me walking one time. This car had high mileage but was still in good shape and I have not had any major expenses. I bought a gold one that if the car is dirty you cannot tell!!! I like having enough power to get out of the way of crazy drivers or big trucks.

  • Great Car. Will Buy Another Again. - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    This is my first car, which was bought from a craigslist seller. At first I didnt care to much for it since it was common, but i later realized how nice this car really looks compared to others I see on the road today. The interior is nice, and easily customizable. The exterior of the car is nice, and looks sporty. I have had only one issue with it. It died once at a stop sign, it started back up and was fine and had not had this problem for over a year now. When my brother gets this car, I will probably just buy another (newer) Pontiac Grand Am.

    Grand Am GT what a perfect car for a teenage guy to drive. Not only do you get a fun exciting car to drive, but your fuel efficient at the same time. While there are aftermarket parts available most are unenncessary for this car. Not only for guys a good chick car also. its got a powerfull V6 engine great styling. Most importantly its very comfortable interior is styled for everyone.

  • One underrated car - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM
    By -

    I was looking for something bigger than my compact car, and a black Grand Am GT Sedan caught my eye, so I thought, why not try it out? I was impressed. It handled very well and had more than enough power. I turned off the traction control and could easily spin the meaty P225/50R16s. Most importantly, it has awesome stopping power. I thought I wanted a stick shift like my last car, but after driving this car its clear that the automatic is a perfect match, so I lost the desire to row my own gears. The cockpit layout is very logical. I was quite impressed with the stereo system. Dont be fooled by the horsepower rating; this car has more than enough power. A great car for real drivers.

  • Race Car Feel - 2002 Pontiac Grand AM

    I bought this car a few months ago, and I love the way some people can underestamate it. This car keeps up with the best of the best. The 3.4L Ram Air V6 is very fast. This car is very popular so luckly there are many things available to make it faster and custom looking! Buy with confidence.

    I bought this car in the middle of winter as a gift to myself. It had 131,000 miles on it when I purchased from a local dealer. High miles, and since it was the GT I knew it had been driven hard and put away wet, but it was so sharp I had to buy it. I had the car for two years and never had a problem other than regular maintenance and an occasional fuse blowing. I drove the car like it was a race car, the handling was incredible, and the engine ran like a dream, plus people really took notice of its awesome monsoon sound system, that thing would boom!
