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.

  Great car - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By ZZDTSZ - December 7 - 10:00 am

  I was worried that I would wish I had a v-6 but this 4 cylinder is plenty peppy. I am still suprised at how well this vehicle rides and handles since it it the base SE model. Great car.

  boo-urns these cars stink!!!!!! - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By manderz - November 29 - 5:30 am

  I bought my 2003 grand am gt1 2 years ago. it had one previous owner. I have put so much money into this car. I take excellent care of my car, but everytime i turn around something else is wrong with it. Ive had to replace the electrical box in the car. fuel pump and filters, batteries, thermostat, and now something else is wrong with it.. ABS, no trac, service vehicle soon lights are all on. For some reason Im thinking it has something to do with the famous engine block. ive spent close to 4 grand on it in less than 2 years. yikes.

  Fun little car - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Mark - October 8 - 7:56 pm

  I have had it going on 4 years now. Only thing replaced has been the battery. No problems except with some clunk noise in the front suspension. Either has gone away or dont notice it anymore.

  I bought my car brand spanking new with only 2 miles on it. Ive had a few issues with it with a bad fuel pump the catalytic converter went out which was replaced under warranty. Ive also had to have the battery replaced. Other than that ive had no other problems with my car I usually change the oil at regular intervals and recently had a coolant flush. It rides great.

  Not too bad - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By n wiebe - August 28 - 2:00 am

  The car captured me right away. The car handles like the pros. I can corner with absolute confidence regardless of my speed. Acceleration is not bad, but you will suck the gas back if you enjoy using the gas pedal. Sound system is quite good. I found the bass to be somewhat lacking, but a small subwoofer solved that. The doors are awfully wide when trying to park. Would love to have vertical door kit installed for that. Front wheel bearing have gone, blinker relay went crazy, had a bit too much shavings in the tranny when I changed filter and oil, doors dont seal well in cross winds, factory rims peeling(so much for chrome). Other than that, has been fine.

  GranDAMNED - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Stupid - August 24 - 10:00 am

  GrandAM is a nightmare to drive on wet and uneven road surfaces. The vehicle has a tendency to push on left turns and sometimes delivers an abrupt swerve when turning to the left on dry roads. This condition almost caused an accident on the PA Turnpike. GM dealers repsonse was the typical "couldnt duplicate condition" but refuses to remove the McPherson struts for thorough examination. What ever happened to the old reliable GM Corporation? As a diehard GM fan I am now looking to imports as replacement. Never thought I would see this day!

  GAGT - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By ROB_ROB - May 11 - 10:00 am

  I absolutely love my GAGT. It handles like no other car Ive driven for its price. Off the line my car took my friends c230 kompressor (manual) to the cleaners, not to mention his Celica GTS before that. I got my car fully loaded for under $24,000. What a deal! At 70MPH my engine is doing about two thousand RPM, its a heavy car and it shows on the freeway...I can hardly feel the wind. Only bad thing is the governor...but then again, who needs to go faster than 115 MPH when the car can get you there before you know it.

  Okay - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Traci - April 22 - 4:30 am

  I bought the 2003 Grand Am GT new with the SC/T package (my fav). For some reason I just had to have this car why I dont know. I actually have had a lot of little stupid problems I just dont have time to go to the dealership with. As for holding up I think it has done good I have about 55,000 miles on it. My windows are off track and pontiac said they fixed when they didnt they have done this about 4 times and I just dont feel like going car less for a day again. My gas gauge is off, and alot of other stupid things. I cant believe the depriciation on it. I have lost a lot of money with this car and I will not get another american car again. Other then that if I could get rid of it I would.
