  • Coolest Car Ive Ever Driven - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
    By -

    Ive owned a Jaguar and a BMW and this is still a far better car. It has timeless styling and the dashboard isnt boring at all. I bought it four years old and have only done routine maintenance and replaced the brakes. It is a great car. Mine is a black GTP. The supercharged 3800 is excellent, powerful, and still gets great mileage. Buy one if you have the chance, but I would only go for the GTP.

  • Watch out for the catalytic conv!!!! - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
    By -

    I bought this brand new when 0% first came out. Good car overall. Luckily, I have escaped the tranny problems so far, well see. All you owners out there, BEWARE. The catalytic converter on these, the GTs, and the GTPs are bad. There IS a warranty to 80,000 miles on the SE, and they raised it to 120,000 for the others. I have an SE. Got it fixed at 79,600 miles, didnt even know about the warranty. sweet! Oh, by the way. This thing cost 21 grand new, and is now worth 5. Can you say "Honda" from now on!!!!!!

    I have had this car for almost 8 years. I LOVE this car. Yes, there are a few things wrong. The windows clamps do break and the windows fall. When its 110 out, the plastic does not hold up to the heat. The other thing is the Intake Manifold Gasket. Yes.... Replaced twice... My mechanic flushed all the DexCool out and replaced it with normal coolant. It has been that way for 5 years now, no problems. I love the way the car drives, looks, runs, and the power it has. I am so sad that they did away with Pontiac :-(

    BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND DIDNT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT.

  • Nice car - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
    By -

    So far this car has been great to me, I bought it 9 months ago and it was nice to me. The acceleration is really good for a heavy sedan, the handling is excellent, its very spacious inside. I have 17 inch wheels on it so the ride isnt that smooth but a lot smother than other cars with 13 or 14 inch wheels. The sound system is awsome. I like the six speaker CD player and even on noisy radio stations it plays clear. So overall the car is awsome I had no problems with at all except change the oil and filter. What I dont like about this car is the where the cup holders are located, its hard to swith gears when its open, other than that its a very nice car.

  • Great value for the Price - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix

    Has all the features that I wanted in a larger size car. Has great pick-up and leg room (Im taller and drivers side leg room in many cars leave a lot to be desired).

    This is a great car. I recommend it highly! I bought mine about a year ago and since then Ive been really happy with it. Unreal pickup for this "Old Person Car!" (Im 23 yrs. old.) It sounds amazing too. Its got the Eaton Supercharger stock on it, which provides your pickup with that "jet plane" sound when the rpms are racing.
