  Just One Thing - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By IkeDunk - February 17 - 2:00 am

  I bought the GTP used in 10-2003 and found myself stranded in 02-2004. After paying the tow and repairs totaling $800 I was informed that my pass-key III module was defective. After working with a Pontiac rep for 8 weeks they told me there was nothing they could do. Love the car, not so sure about the Pontiac service.

  Problem Car - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By suzid - February 11 - 10:00 am

  The car has been in the shop every month for the last six months for something different every time. And it was in the shop at least every three months before that, once the warranty ran out.

  Life with a Red GTP - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By El Squid - January 6 - 7:20 am

  I bought a used GTP because GM decided to discontinue the 2-door version. I am amazed at how little fuel it takes to propel the GTP along open highways. Conversely, when engaging in stoplight gymnastics it rips through premium gas like, well you know what I mean. Its a shame that along with discontinuing the GTP coupe, the performance shift switch was also deleted. Hooray for Hypertech whose reprogrammer allows the return of fast shifts and also disables the silly governor. In spite of the cars 145 mph capability I drive the car within posted limits except when visiting the Nevada desert and other fun places. Besides, 30 mpg is available on the interstate if driven gently.

  First Car - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By Roman - December 27 - 9:23 pm

  I bought this car after having nothing but trucks sinc I was 16. I took one look at this car and it was love at first sight!! It only had about 65k on it and was in mint condition. I love everything about this car except for the rims that come on the special edition package, a minor setback. I have had no problems yet and I hope to not have any either. I love the gas mileage coming from a diesel truck that was getting around 11 mpg Yikes! It will get up and go with the best of them and stay up pretty good. It does govern out at 126 but I dont think thats a prob since I wont be going that fast all the time..

  Good car, but...... - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By QCK/GTP - November 18 - 10:00 am

  After 7 months of ownership Im overall satisfied with my 01 GTP coupe, but with all the go fast goodies out there for the 3.8L engine tells me the engine has a lot more available if GM would just tweek it a little. This power train was a good idea, but the enineering is lacking in the output and reliability area. The plastic in the interior is really cheesy. This is my first Pontiac and if their is never another 2 coupe with power that is less than $30,000.00 it will be my last. In my opinion Pontiac is really missing the boat by getting out of the pony car market and other than the overprised GTO is not making any powerfull 2 door coupes.

  Grand Prix - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By 3Hendrix - August 30 - 2:00 am

  I own a red 2001 Grand Prix GT. I have also owned a 1998 white Grand Prix GTP and a 1988 Grand Prix. My experience with these cars is exceptional. My 1988 Grand Prix did have some trouble with quitting when pulling out into traffic but this problem was corrected in my later models. These cars are fun to drive yet practical on gas mileage. There exterior is sleek and sporty. I have one child and there was plenty of room for the car seat, toys, groceries, etc. I would highly recommend this car to anyone who likes to drive.

  GTP is an AWESOME Car! - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By bon - May 6 - 10:00 am

  The performance, comfort, feel, and reliablity of this vehicle is unmatched. Blows the doors off any imports out there in body design and power, and still maintains a reasonable gas mileage to coincide.
