  Great Car - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By otty - July 18 - 4:36 pm

  Great car, still own it and I am at 227,000 km, runs like a charm still. Only regular maintenance required and a yearly oil spray for the Canadian winter to prevent corrosion. Only problem Ive had is that my seat has broken

  Another Transmission - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By Suza41 - June 27 - 10:00 am

  Bought this car new -- loved it, till 08/24/04. Transmission died in local dealers service lane. And I do mean died. Only 31,500 miles. While working on the car service mechanic discovered deteriorated Wheel bearing, more money. Sure am glad I bought that extended warrenty everyone told me was a waste of money. Bought this car because of the handling and interior size, I am a short woman, but like to drive a mid-size car.

  Galexy Silver - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By thundercat - June 18 - 2:00 am

  I was at the dealership getting a headlight replacement for my 96 Grand Prix, when I saw it. The sky reflected against its Galexy Silver finish. I peared out the corner of my eye at its glossy black tires in contrast to cold & very smooth polished alloy wheels. "What a sexy looking sedan." I thought to myself. Test drove it and never got that pitiful headlight replaced. Even though, I only had one year left on the loan, I just had to tell thundercat 96 good-bye. Ride is excellent for freeway traveling and seats all passengers comfortablely on extended road trips. Minimal jarring felt from imperfections in the road, if any. Smooth cushy ride.

  Love my GP - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By MarcelF - June 11 - 12:33 am

  Very fun to drive. No problems with get up & go. The 3800 V6 uses regular gas and I get 23-25 MPG here in Phoenix, and have gotten up to 32 MPG on long highway trips. Heads Up display should be standard on cars, Ive found that its vary useful. Bose sound system sounds great. No problems yet, 15,000 miles into vehicle life. Great car for the money!

  Great Car - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By singledt - June 9 - 7:36 pm

  I have thoroughly enjoyed owning my Grand Prix. It has nice acceleration and a smooth ride. It handles very well in all conditions, even snow. All the controls are within easy reach and are easy to find. I was surprised by just how large it is on the inside. There is plenty of room in the backseat for passengers to be comfortable and not have their knees in their chest. The trunk is also very spacious and can hold tons of luggage. I drive this car from Nebraska to Florida two or three times a year, and have no complaints. Except that I wish Nebraska was closer to Florida.

  What a car - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By ken - May 29 - 6:10 pm

  Great car, with highway mileage at 65 mph 30 mpg, 24 in town, only small problems. Great to handle on sharp curves, hugs the road. Same battery that came with the car, now have 80,000 miles on it hard to wash though always leaving dirty spots in the creases.

  Rating my Grand AM - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By Grand AM - May 20 - 4:50 pm

  Other than a problem (on going) with computer saying "engine needs service, which can not be turned off, the car runs great needing only new batteries. Takes life out of them quicker in hot Florida.

  Last of the classic Grand Prixs... - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By Russ - March 5 - 2:00 am

  The GTP coupe is truly the last of the classic Grand Prix line.Nothing against sedans,but this is the best looking model since the 70s.At 3,500 lb it has the weight to match the 240 hp/280 ft.lb.supercharged 3.8L engine.Feels like the classic performance models of 60s.At 73,000 miles theres been no major problems except a dead battery and dry-rotted tires.Slight oil seepage but that happens at higher mileage. Gas mileage isnt that bad for a supercharged engine, using premium actually gives it better mileage, go figure. Nice leather interior, drivers seat is comfortable when finally dialed in. Overall a sharp, solid car.

  car sucks - 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix
  By wolfie47 - February 16 - 2:00 am

  bought the car brand new, after 100 miles, body moldings were falling off, after 3500 miles, tranny was leaking, idiot dealer "mechanic" didnt fill it with fluid and let my wife drive around that way. after 4000 miles, fuel pump went out, after 5000 miles, rack and pinion steering needed replacement. now after 13,500 the battery exploded and ate through my paint, then idiot "mechanic" sprayed acid all over my fender and bumper. (dont use dealer service if you can help it) Now i am just waiting for something else to go wrong.
