  Although its under powered and its dash is a little goofy it handles great, its comfortable and good on gas making it fun to drive i just wish the V6 had a option for 5 or 6 speed manual

  Value - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Mikey - July 21 - 2:26 pm

  It just seems like consumer guides these days only rate the performance of the vehicle and totally ignore value. Im here to tell you about the value of this car. I paid $16,000 CDN (after taxes) for a 1-yr old car loaded with features - all power - and with only 23,000kms w/ 2 yrs remaining on the warranty. What can you buy with this money? Zip. My friend bought a 2005 Civic, paid $24,000 CDN and has to manually roll up his windows! His car is so weak on hills that you feel like you need to get out and push. Ha! My GA flies up hills, has tons of low- end power and gets about 25-30mpg. The hype about foreign cars is bull. Ill be driving my GA when my buddys Civic is mowing lawns!

  Awesome - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Licia - February 22 - 1:06 am

  LOVE IT! I bought this car brand new so ive had it for about 3 yrs. NOTHING has gone wrong. Havent had to fix anything!! Just your typical oil change and brake change. Oh, and had to change the bulb in one of the headlights. NOTHING at all to fix as far as the engine is concerned. A little loud on the hwy but nothing to complain about.

  Cool Ride - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By JohnWill - June 3 - 2:00 pm

  As with any other Pontiac I have owned I am well pleased. Its a hot looking car and the one I have has leather and all the bells and whistles on the inside. Gas mileage is surprisingly good and its pretty fast on the get go. No creaks or rattles and the sound system is good. Great little sporty ride.

  Good for the Price - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Dee - August 29 - 2:43 am

  Dont get me wrong, I love my car. But the only thing I have a problem with is the back window noise. It sounds like the windows are down slightly when youre doing interstate driving, gets pretty annoying. Other than that, its roomy, sporty, and has great take off.

  Good Car - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Grand Am - June 22 - 7:23 am

  This is a a really good car to drive! I love the look of the outside..especially the spoiler on the back. The radio is great and the interior is sporty looking. The 4 cylinder engine is pretty powerful and is fun in driving around corners and quick turns. Overall great car!

  Not Impressed - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By NotImpressed - March 3 - 9:20 am

  I traded in a 03 Saturn for my Grand Am. I was in tears a month after my trade. The car inside is smaller than my little Saturn, the doors curve so it is hard to fit things in the back seat that you cant fit in the trunk because the opening to the trunk is too small. The seats are not the most comfortable for road trips. It is a lot of plastic on the inside and just make me think of a cheap Matchbox car the more I have to drive it. The starter sticks more often than not and after purchasing the vehicle, I found out that this is a very common problem for the Grand Ams.

  Pontiac is the Best - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Jeanne - August 24 - 4:06 am

  I am a 54 year old woman who has had nothing but Pontiacs. I wanted the 2005 Grand Am because it was the last year they were making it. I bought it new. I loved my 89 and love this one even more!! You cannot go wrong with a Pontiac!

  Awesome GT1 - 2005 Pontiac Grand AM
  By Harley_Devil - July 20 - 7:36 pm

  Awesome car!! Fun to drive, love the look and feel. Ive owned my GT1 for 2 years and have never had any issues or regrets about purchasing it. I love the large trunk and rear folding seats, but have found the trunk opening to be a little on the small side. The sound system is great and I love to open the sunroof on warm days. The Ram-Air hood and engine are a great addition to the car and the hood scoops give it such a sporty and fast look.
