We Drive Excitment - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Drive Excitment! - December 25 - 12:03 pmI bought this car because I have always loved Pontiac syle. Its a two door and looks mean. It has very good power from a v6 200hp, 240 supercharged but not worth the extra $$$. Reilability of these engines are suppose to be unsurpassed. Handling is very good and you can take curves and stuff faster than normal cars. As for some of this reviews below, these cars DO NOT have a timing belt! This is the old timing chain, pushrod, dependable motor that has been around forever! (since the 70s) As for the bad... Its not common to have a steering itermediate shaft go out... Bad GM design. *dealerships tend to try and replace the Rack and Pinion to cure this sound* beware its usually the shaft!

Lousy car, Lousy dealer - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Heff - December 1 - 8:30 amThis was my second GP...what a disappointment! The A/C was repaired 3 years in a row. Once under warranty and the last two on me. The A/C was not working again this year, so the car is gone. Given a different reason each time, supposedly, but the result was always the same - no A/C. Water leaks, bearings, undiagnosed vibrations, excessive road noise and tire wear, a stereo system with speakers that constantly cut out, and non-stop computer problems made this car the worst I have ever owned. The most the dealer would say - well, that happens some time. Ive purchased several cars from this dealer, but never again. Likewise for the Grand Prix.

Solid ride - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By tony522 - November 1 - 2:00 amGreat powertrain. The 3.8 is a rock solid unit with great get up and go torque. Feels like a small 8 out of the hole.

Perfect First Car - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Chad - September 23 - 7:16 pmI got this car a few years ago as my first car. I was originally shopping for Accords, but they were out of my price range and I was recommended the Grand Prix because the 3800 V6 is supposedly "bulletproof." In the 5 years Ive owned the car it has lived up to the reputation. It has had a few small issues(key gets stuck in the ignition occasionally and LED backlight on radio went out), some of which I caused(warping the brakes 3 times oops!), but it has been an excellent car! It has good looks, enough power to get out of its own way, and it has been reliable. Its a "sleeper" in the sense you can save a ton of money over a Japanese car since they depreciate a lot, but are quite reliable

This Car is My Baby - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By Oneap - September 11 - 5:00 amBought the car in 2003 out of a lease. It is the second car that I have owned and a real step up from my previous vehicle. I fell in love with it the day I saw it at the dealer. The only work I have had to do in 3 years is flush the coolant (preventstive maintenance) and replace the original battery (75,000 miles). The 3.8L engine and wide track suspension make it a dream to drive. Even though it is a 2000, I think it is one of the best looking cars on the road - the gentleman at the car wash place are particularly impressed. The picture for the vehicle on edmunds.com looks exactly like my baby. It is great car and I intend to drive it for some time!

As good as most foreign cars - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By bullwhip - September 4 - 1:30 amI have owned it since new and drive it daily for Sales work. Overall mileage has been 25.3 but I can still get 30 mpg on highway driving with 179,000 miles on it. Ive used synthetic oil since it was new. Brakes have been replace twice, third time coming soon. Front wheel bearings and inner tie rod replaced and thats about all other than some minor warranty work early on. Its a shame they wont be making them any more. :(

Reliable Pontiac - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By barrys42 - August 31 - 12:46 amIve had 3 Grand Prixs before purchasing this one 6 1/2 years ago. This has been by far the most reliable American car Ive had. The only things Ive had repaired was a faulty ABS sensor (under warranty) and replaced the fan motor. Evidently there is a small discharge hole that can clog easily and rust out the motor. The performance of the Grand Prix is great for such a heavy car. A heavy car certainly helps for stability and passenger protection. My MPG averages about 19-20 in city driving and gets around 30 on the highway. MPG has improved with time. The interior leather is cheap but comfortable. The Heads Up Display is such a great item I dont know why its not offered more.

I like my car but...... - 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix
By lowlovesu - June 7 - 2:02 pmI purchased my grand prix gt a few years ago at auction. It had 101tho. miles. The car looked good and ran well at first but then many big issues began coming up. It seems each time it breaks down its at least 300 in repairs, it makes a gosh awful sequel.The belt was replaced twice and it still squeals? Also my gas gauge quit working awhile back . It also has some electrical glitches because random lights on the panel go on for example the low fuel light goes on all the time as well as the oil and coolant lights (even when all these things are changed) and the open trunk light doesnt work at all. Also the car is rusting pretty bad underneath But for 12 yrs old and counting its a decent car!
