Overview & Reviews
A new trim level has been added -- SE2 -- that offers buyers more standard equipment and additional options, while the SE coupe is no longer available. All SE sedans now feature cleaner styling thanks to less body cladding and smoother front and rear fascias. XM Satellite Radio is an available option on all models, while the OnStar communications system is now standard on all models except the base SE.
- Lots of standard features, available five-speed manual transmission, crisp handling.
- Price creep has followed sales growth, five-speed not available with V6, cheap interior pieces, iffy crash test scores.

So far, SO GOOD! - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
By Tin Indian Pride - April 11 - 2:00 amOverall, an excellent car. Pretty good power in the V6. Very fun to drive without giving up the needed driver and passenger space. Tons of standard features. Even for a sedan, it looks great!

By PA - April 4 - 1:53 pmWe have had this car for a little over 2 years now. Nothing major as far as repairs, but did have to get the thermostat replaced (covered by warranty).

Passenger Side Crash - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
By crashkid - March 30 - 10:00 amI bought a 2-dr GRAm GT (Black). While driving on the hwy a woman started coming in my lane. When I swirved to miss her I lost total control of my vehicle (Steering and Brakes !) hitting the contrete barrier on the hwy, crossed 4 lanes of traffic before I was hit in the psgr side door by a F-150 truck at 70mph. No one was with me, that person would have been dead. My "drivers cage" held up The psgr door was pushed over to the console. I do not visually remember hitting the wall or by the truck but I do remember the feeling of the brakes pulsing (ABS) and not being able to stop, and cranking the steering wheel with no control.

Awesome - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
By Bond007 - March 12 - 10:00 amThe Pontiac Grand AM GT that I purchased has been running great since day one. The smooth and powerfull 3.4 liter V6 engine with Ram Air feature makes the car one of the fastest cars in its comparison group. The interior is clean and modern with features like a monsoon stereo system and leather apolstery. I firmly believe in supporting America, so by buying an American made car I believe I have accomplished this. I recomend this vehicle to every American!

Quick and Rock Solid - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
By Gran AM Owner - February 16 - 4:10 pmI own a 2003 Pontiac Grand Am SE V6 and i am so glad i bought this car. It has been very good for me its quick really quick and with the stuff i do to it im surprised it hasnt broke in two. It hasnt had any problems except last week the fuel pump went out which for your information is really common for Pontiac Grand Ams Chevy Malibus of 99-03 and Olds-mobile Aleros its just a chronic problem just like nissans and brake failure anyway my dads slammed the car into a curb going 40 in ice and nothing happened to it didnt even get out of alignment tell me one car that does that i could keep going on but i dont have enough space but for quality and performance this is the best car.

Mine is Great! - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
By Alml - February 5 - 7:30 pmI purchased my 03 Grand Am new as a left over in Feb. 04. I paid about $7000 less than sticker and it s the best car bargain I ever got. Since Ive had I put 53000 NYC miles on it and its only needed minor normal wear repairs that one would expect for a 03 model. Water pump was the most serious. I do go thru brakes more than I think i should but other than that this car has been good to me and I love it!

Not a bad car considering, but not great. - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
By rumrunner83 - January 30 - 6:12 amI bought my Grand AM SE 2.2L brand new in November of 2002. I still have the car just over ten years now. Its a sporty car with a particularly powerful four cylinder engine. That being said, it is a four cylinder, and while the car is absolutely fantastic for highway driving, the car is simply too heavy for hills and cold weather. Even when the car was new it did not like climbing hills, and in the cold the engine loses significant horsepower. However, the car is amazing on gas if properly maintained and I have driven from southern Massachusetts to Bangor, Maine (Approximately 300 miles) before refueling.

What i had expected - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
By Montreal driver - January 29 - 10:00 amthis vehicule is totaly reliable, i enjoy driving each day this car, this car have a good looking and i like going anywhere, because its looking great in any occasion. I dont have any mechanical problem and dont expect any, i have the quad four engine which is really good. i dont know about the automatic transmission but i know that the manual transmission is really good and i dont need a V6 to get power, the quad four is good enough and i like performance, so normal drivers dont need really more, and this without going to 4000 RPM when really needed.
