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.

  Nice Car - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Mo-mobile - September 27 - 10:00 am

  I love to drive this car! Definitely the best handling in its class! I was a little hesitant to buy a car with an automatic transmission but I quickly found the shifts to be very quick and firm. The engine produces enough power to make acceleration exciting and an exhaust note that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. The exterior styling is quite nice (Im always afraid someones going to steal my rims theyre so nice) and the interior isnt bad either. The seats are great, theyre comfortable and supportive during spirited cornering. I like this car so much I find I never want to stop driving.

  Compared with my old 96 GAGT - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By mlinde - August 10 - 10:00 am

  Noticeable performance increase over my 96 GAGT (which had a 3.1). Holds a straight line considerably better at cruising speed with crosswind. Better braking due to all around disk brakes. Hugs corners with less leaning than my 96. Monsoon sound definately better than my 96.

  Good car - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Bob - February 14 - 12:56 pm

  I bought mine new in 2003 and had to have door skins replaced due to rusting the first year. Also front brakes keep warping the rotors and I don’t even use them very hard.

  Great so far - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By necia6 - January 9 - 10:00 am

  Ive had my 2003 Grand Am GT for about eight months. It handles great and is a really smooth ride. With my commute of 80miles four days a week, Ive really been giving my car a workout. The V6 engine results in fast pickup (good for highway lane merges), and has somewhat of a sporty roar when you accelerate. Overall, Im thrilled with my car.

  Happy Owner - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By LuciaA - October 2 - 2:00 am

  No quality problems whatsoever. I am enjoying this car. It feels safe and sturdy. I really like the cleaned up body style of the SE...not to mention the power of the 6 cyl.

  I love my 2003 GrandAM GT! - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Raymondray - July 27 - 2:00 am

  I got A GrandAM GT1 Sedan,fully loaded. I love the leather seats! I got a beautiful color,"Polo Green Metallic" Which gleams beautifully when the sun hits it. I got the "Moonsoon" sound system which I highly reccomend,the best stock sound system I have ever heard. The 6 cylinder isvery quick,and with the "Ram Air" I got plus I put a K&N perfomance air filter in,it has about 200 horse power,and I have timed my car zero-60 in about 7.5 seconds! Good horse power for a V-6,I can remeber years ago when V-8s had 200 horse power. Over all a great car,I give it a 10!!

  I Love My GT!s - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By mem - September 25 - 2:00 am

  I have bought two GT1s within 3 years and love them........I drive so many miles.....Can go down the interstate 90 MPH and hit the accel and plenty of power.........No problems to take to the dealers ever.....I especially like the fold down rear seats as I am in sales and service and the sound systems are great.....My new car has satelite system which now leads me to bringing all my cds into the house........Resale value is less than desirable however. But overall I love em till I get more bucks to upgrade and drive less miles...Looking forward to my first Corvette............

  Could use more poke... - 2003 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Tony A. - June 9 - 2:00 am

  My experience with Pontiacs Grand Am has been mixed. While the car is sleek and it has the engine capacity, the 3.4 liter is far too anemic for the GTs perfoemance image. Acceleration from a standing start is OK, but it quickly runs out of breath. This engine is, however, very smooth and reliable. Ride quality is adequate as is handling. In general, a sporty car at a low price. With the generous rebates the car cost less than $16,000.00 new.
