Overview & Reviews

An upgraded four-speaker sound system is now standard on SE models, while an MP3 player is standard on uplevel GT models and optional on all others except the base SE.

• Lots of standard features, available five-speed manual transmission, crisp handling.

• Price has crept up in recent years, five-speed not available with V6, cheap interior pieces, iffy crash test scores.

  2004 GRAND AM GT - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By JESSICA - July 12 - 10:00 am

  I am very satisfied with my 2004 Grand Am GT. Its fast for a vehicle in its class, and most importantly fun to drive. It sucks its share of gas, though, not that efficient in fuel economy, and the only other con is the doors. They are pretty hefty and often swing back too easily to hit my body as Im getting "up and out" of my car.

  overall-solid car - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By csmith6107 - July 1 - 7:43 am

  So I purchased my 2004 Pontiac Grand Am for $700 from my mothers friend (previously I thought Pontiacs were terrible). I use it as a daily driver to get to school, work, hangout with friends, etc. The only complaint I have is the clicking sound that it makes. It sounds like the turn signal, but is more sporadic and very annoying. I have had it for about a year now and I love how it drives. It handles pretty well in the snow and can pick up pretty quick if needed. I find myself checking it out every time I park. Im coming up on 200,000 miles and am going to part ways with it soon due to the expense of a timing belt, definitely considering buying another one though!!!

  Almost Five years of Fun - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Vanessa - April 18 - 5:23 am

  I am still enjoying my car, I love the pick up on the open freeway. The CD player went out a very long time ago. All of the repairs I have had were minor such as radiator, waterpump.. when I first got the car I had problems with the sensory switch (or security light) but that was fixed under the warranty and it never happened again. When I sell my car next year (to up grade) someone will be getting a heck of a deal..

  Great Car For The Money - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By jagbaby06 - April 11 - 1:50 am

  This a very good car. First of all it has some very old school 1960s era styling cues such as astro vent balls as A/C vents and that classic Pontiac grille. The 2.2L Ecotech engine rated at 140hp at 5,600rpm and 150lbs-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm delivers decent power in the upper rpm range and good power in town. I put it up to 107mph while rushing my wife to the hospital and it never acted funny and still had half pedal. I have no idea where the governor is set at. The drivers window control came loose at 69,000 miles but nothing super glue couldnt fix. It has a problem throwing Service Engine Soon lights if the gas cap isnt turned at least 3 clicks. The 4 speed auto slush box wanders sometimes.

  Quite a Deal - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By argus - March 16 - 2:00 am

  I did my research, and problems plaguing these cars since their introduction have been worked out. I checked Japanese competitors, but there just weren’t enough discounts to buy those cars. My Grand Am is loaded at $24K--I drove it off the lot for well under $18K. Unfortunately, resale on the Grand Am is horrid. Would’ve been nice if it were offered with a manual transaxle, but I have to admit this auto shifts smooth. Compared to Chrysler, GM transaxles are a dream. Overall, I’m VERY happy with my purchase. I haven’t owned a car that garnered so many looks, and was this fun to drive, since I sold my Fiero years ago.

  better than anticipated - 2004 Pontiac Grand AM
  By hk - October 9 - 10:00 am

  the grand am is providing better performance and enjoyability than I had imagined- its acceleration is fairly peppy, cornering quite good, braking excellent and the ride is smooth for the cars size. Standard features are numerous as one would expect from a GM vehicle.
