2003 Pontiac Grand Am SE1 review from North America
"Way more than what I expected for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A few rattles here and there. Had to replace the battery in February, but not surprising considering the -40 degree weather we were having for a few weeks. Other than that its been running super smooth.
General comments?
Really impressed with the vehicle so far. The ride is very smooth with great accelleration for a 4 cylinder. Road noise is minimal and the stock monsoon sound system is beautiful.
Interior is very spacious, seats really comfortable especially during longer commutes, with more than enough room in the back seats.
I find the exterior of the SE1 is better compared to other grand am models without those strips running alongside the door panels.
The trunk is absolutely massive.
I was slightly skeptical going for GM, but I really enjoyed the service at the dealership.
Would definitely recommend.
