1997 Pontiac Grand Prix GT review from North America
"Great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fog light went out at 119,000.
General comments?
The power is amazing.
Looks are great.
Handles like a dream.
LOVE my HUD.
Paint job is amazing, I live in the desert in the hottest part of the country where it gets over 120ยบ in the summer, and the paint still looks new.
Seats are very comfortable.
One bad thing about this car are the cup holders. I seriously don't even see any use for them because they suck so bad.
But overall I think the car is amazing. I have not had it that long, but all the miles I have put on it are VERY HARD miles and the car is still in great condition. I get my oil changed every 3000 miles. I have taken my car on a few road trips and I have never had a problem with it. My GP has never left me stranded on the side of the road. I have had a few minor problems with lights and such, but other than that the car is just great.
The best thing about this car, and the reason I bought it, was for the performance. I have raced several cars and I always come out ahead. Even at highway speeds over 75mph, the car still accelerates with ease and I have never had a problem passing people.
