Overview & Reviews
Option packages have been shuffled a bit, as have the wheel choices. New radio units include a CD/MP3 player and a DVD-based navigation system with six-disc CD changer. Remote vehicle start is now available in all models. Late in the model year a 303-horsepower V8-powered GXP joins the lineup.
- Strong V8 and supercharged V6, nimble handling, attractive gauges, easy-to-use controls, big trunk, fold-flat front-passenger seat.
- Build and materials quality still needs some work, tight backseat, noisy engine, not enough storage or cupholders.

My Car - 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Sherry - May 11 - 6:36 pmCar is good over all. Comfortable. Headlights arent that great. They get scratched too easily. I have problems starting the car. had mechanics check the problem and they cant find anything wrong. engine light wont go off. its been checked by dealership as well. my car has about 80,000 miles now. its a little cramped at times. the chevy impala was my first choice b ut had to settle for this car because of pricing. still paid too much. paid 14,000 a year ago. now supposedly worth only about 8,000. no major repairs so far at least. good gas mileeage. would recommend.

A drivers car - 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
By mikej - May 3 - 4:53 amThis car is outstanding with 18" wheels the ride and handling rivals anything on the road. Fit and finish are excellent, this is a drivers car. Dual exhaust also gives this car the sound of my 70 corvette.

GRAND PRIX GIVES YOU EXCITEMENT! - 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
By KEVIN PARKER - April 8 - 3:40 pmThe 3.8L V-6s 205 Horsepower gives true excitement to this sporty mid-size sedan. The low end torque moves the Grand Prix across intersections with tremendous authority, leaving most cars behind! Most passengers ask if I have the supercharged V-6 that comes in the pricier GTP. Fuel economy averages 28 miles per gallon with highway trips averaging well over 30 miles per gallon! The front bucket seats are very supportive and hold your body in place when taking avantage of the twisty road ahead of you. The back seat offers above average passenger comfort and handles the child safety seat just fine. Pontiac has lived up to its reputation of excitement with this new Grand Prix as well as value!

Dark Cherry GXP - 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Brian - March 14 - 7:16 pmLots of power with torque-steer, I always say hold on when you put the pedal down. Over-all its a fun to drive but it does drink fuel even it you drive it normal. Road ruts created by the large trucks seem to whip the car from side to side. My 03 chev had no problem with the ruts, this car does. Im totally shocked that I need to repair my front brakes at only 25,000 miles considering 90% of the miles are HWY driving and that I really am gentle on my brakes.GM not willing to do anything about the brakes even so its still under warranty.

Time for a change... - 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
By SFeldman Nutley NJ - January 6 - 6:16 amMy 99 Buick Regal LSE was getting up in mileage and I was attracted by the GM rebate offers. 04 was the last year for the Regal, so I checked out the LaCrosse. I was not thrilled by the syling and looked at the Pontiac G6. While looking at the G6 is saw the Grand Prix. I loved the exterior styling and noticed that many options on the LaCrosse were standard on the Grand Prix.

Not worth what i payed for it - 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
By sullyhaute - November 26 - 9:10 amThe interior design is cramped. I am only 6 ft. tall and I feel like i am way too big for this car. It will get up and go, but that is about the only thing good I can say, I have already had to replace turn signal bulbs, the paint is peeling off the front bumper and mirror covers. I had to replace exhaust clamps, I have to take it in for re-aligning. I would expect this from a old beater car. but this car still only has about 62,000 mile to date.

Great car - 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Danfm1 - October 15 - 12:50 amThe car is amazing - Pontiac has really improved their products and it can easily challenge foreign cars. The turning is tight, the engine provides plenty of power while sipping gas, there are no rattles and the interior quality is great. Its safe, good looking, and a great ride.
