Overview & Reviews
The Grand Prix underwent a redesign for 2004, but those familiar with the big sedan will find its blend of performance and comfort hasn't changed much.
- Strong supercharged V6, nimble handling, attractive gauges, easy-to-use controls, big trunk, fold-flat front-passenger seat.
- Build and materials quality still needs work, tight backseat, noisy engine, not enough storage or cupholders, no auto climate control.

My Grand Prix Corners Great - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By KenZ - March 6 - 10:00 amI have been very impressed with the cornering ability of my Grand Prix. Other great options include the rear passenger doors that open 90 degrees and the two-tiered glove box. I also really enjoy the speed control stereo volume - when you go faster, the radio volume increases to accomodate road noise and when you go slower, the radio volume decreases. Acceleration is also tremendous.

Grand Prix Accolades - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By EagleArgy - February 8 - 2:00 amVery responsive, great power and comfortable is how I describe the 2004 Grand Prix-Comp GTP This is my second GTP and Pontiac has improved. The tap shifter takes a chapter from Ferrari and makes the car fun to drive. Engine is a tad noisy. Leather interior seems to be much better grade than in past.

Old Faithful - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Carl - January 22 - 8:10 pmOther than the initial recall of the gas pedal assembly when the car was new, I have had no issues with this car in the 6+ years/66k miles Ive had it. Other than routine maintenance, I havent put a dime into what would be considered a "repair". Its by no means a "sports car", but it is very good at what its intended to be--a comfortable, quiet, good handling, RELIABLE sedan. And fuel mileage is decent too-- 30 mpg @ 70 mph on long trips/20 mpg stop & go. If it continues to be as good as its been, I will drive it until the wheels fall off, which should be quite a few years off.

vehicle disappointing - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By mpdcop21 - January 4 - 8:53 pmI have had my grand prix for more then 2 years now and i have had a constant problem with it. When i bought the car, they took another carfax from another grand prix on the lot and didnt tell me it was a rental car. I have had stalling problems for over a year and now Im having transmissions problems. Every time I take it to the dealership they cant duplicate the problem! And they charge me more to not diagnose it then it would be to fix it. Now Im taking my car to Aamco tomorrow to see what they say. It has 80,000 miles on it. The transmission should not be shot yet. But since it was a rental car it just might be. WE all know how we treat rental cars. The transmission is slipping a lot!!!!

Gran Prix GTP first months usage - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By gnr - January 2 - 10:00 amUpgraded from a 2000 Grand Am GT and so far it has been a good decision. Went in looking for GT2 and decided it was worth the money for GTP - Car is fun to drive very quick with Super charged engine. Handeling is superb with the upgraded tires. Would recommend highly. The true test will be in two years if the car is still as much fun to drive as today.

Great car - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Steve D - December 14 - 4:40 amI have owned now 4 Pontiac Grand Prixs (1973, 1974, 1983) and I have to admit, the 2004 model has the other 3 cars beat hands down. I like the performance and features of the car. The only disappointment was the fuel economy. I was expecting better mileage, but the car makes up for it in performance. I would recommend anyone to buy this car.

Rock of Gibraltar - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Macj - December 12 - 12:53 pmI bought this car at 6k miles and now its at 64k, I absolutely love it, the engine is a monster and the a/c still causes a polar experience. The sound system is pathetic and a few speakers are torn. In terms of drive quality, this thing really gives me power when I want and offers a majestic cruise experience. Honda and Toyota would have set me back a few more thousand dollars, but I dont see where I lost out with this. One major issue I have is with the seating in the back, its extremely cramped and most ppl have complained of nausea because of the claustrophobic rear styling. Ill keep this one till it dies, my last American car got me 268k, miles to go before she sleeps!

Plainac - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Dave Smithson - November 26 - 10:00 amI ordered not knowing the design...bad mistake...this is one ugly Grand Prix. As Vanilla looking as you can get...what were they thinking? Is there anyone home at Pontiac??? And we thought the Aztech was a joke?

2004 Grand Prix gt1 - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By clinton - November 4 - 10:00 amReally fun car. We got the base model with a power front seat as the only add on. The base model is not stripped at all to my surprise. Traction control, ABS, CD, Power windows, P locks and P mirrors. The re-design of the cruise control makes it very user friendly. Hopefully all of GM cars will adopt this style of the cruise control. This is a car that I will definitely keep a while. Love the new color also...fusion orange. The cars response to driving is the best. The Pontiac is so much better and funthan the 02 sebring. The headlights give excellent vision at night. Really like the way the doors open wider to a 90 degree also.

Love the GTP! - 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
By TomcatRyan2 - October 29 - 10:00 amOk, I only have had the car for a month so I almost hesitate to submit a review this early, But I love the GTP! Its a huge improvement over the 03 VW Junk, I mean Jetta that I traded out of. The GP has excellent highway performance. It is a fun to drive and the heads up display is awesome! This feature has been around for a while, Im not sure why it didnt make it into more GM products. So far my only negatives with the GP is that is a missing a few items you would expect in a car with a $32k sticker, like climate control, heated mirrors, and Navigation, althought they did add it to 2005s. All in all a great car plus over $5,000 in rebates from GM!
