  Pontiac Grand Am GT1 - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By David - November 23 - 2:03 am

  This is the second Grand Am GT, the first was a 99 and was in a $7500 worth of damage accident with a child in the back. It held up perfect! very solid car. I never had any problems. Now I have the 2005 GT1 and am even happier! I have driven with friends in there Hondas and they continue to say "American cars break down and Japanese cars, never" but the truth is, if you do your homework and read reviews, that is not true, they actually need servicing too, and the $$$ they put into it to preform like mine, haha. My car out classes anything next to it except for an Eclipse w/turbo I tried to race and a Corvette. I plan to add to the engine to enhance it more, the handling is perfect. Go Pontiac!

  Typical GM Car -- Fast until it breaks - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Roger - February 27 - 10:00 am

  Ive owned this car for a few years now. Purchased in 2007 with 30k miles, now I have 80k. Nothing major has broken yet, but the car is such a pile of plastic junk it seems about as reliable as a childs toy. Everything under the car is rusting. The paint is fading and flaking. There is body rust on it. The headlights are hazy and fogged. The car has been through 1 battery and 3 CV boots. The brakes were so rusted I needed to have a mechanic fix them. There is this horrible annoying, nonstop clicking from the blinkers that is apparently common with these. Other than being a piece of plasticy junk, it is pretty zippy. If you dont need a reliable car, Id recommend getting one.

  New Owner - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Diva - February 22 - 10:56 pm

  I just purchased this car today, I was a bit hesitant as I never owned a Pontiac or can ever recall driving one before. The sleek body style, and gas mileage of 31 miles per gallon was really a seller for me, it doesnt ride as smoothly as i expected it to, but i will ride it more and see how things go, and after all i have a 4cyling and not a 6 so i am sure that has something to do with the pickup of it. Overall, I feel i made a great purchase and choice and hope this vehicle brings me yrs. of pleasure.

  Good on the Pocketbook - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Amgrand - February 13 - 1:13 am

  This is a first vehicle for me. But I have driven many. This is a nice small car that is still sporty enough that it doesnt look like something your grandma would drive. Very convenient.

  Great Car for the Price - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By New Pontiac owner - August 6 - 2:23 am

  Ive only had this car for a few weeks, but so far Im loving it. I was a little hesitant to buy this car because I like a lot of bells and whistles on an automobile. It came down to practibility for me. And for the money, Im really pleased with my purchase. The car has a sporty feel even in the 4 door model. Makes me feel young again. HA!

  I just bought a Grand Am GT and I love it compared to my other car (Ford Focus) I love the power it has in it. And the system is awesome in it. It will beat my boyfriends car now. I wouldnt change anything.

  Nice - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Charlie - February 26 - 12:56 am

  This car is awesome. It exceeded my expections. It has good power and great traction. The car inside and out look great. The Ram Air system is great with this car. A bigger engine like a small V8 would be nicer addition with the Ram Air system.
