1997 Pontiac Grand Am SE review from North America
"A once in a lifetime dream machine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced battery 2 years ago, only because my stereo wore it out.
Clear coat is coming off of the hood.
Daytime running lamps module just quit.
Replaced front rotors at 120,000 kilometers.
General comments?
All in all; this car has handled great, especially in the winter.
I love this car and I would definitely go out and buy another one.
Great on fuel.
This car is quick, has good get up and go.
Still has the original muffler.
Has a nice sleek look, extremely eye appealing.
I am very pleased with my car, it has not given me any serious problems and I believe that this car can get another good 150,000 kilometers out of it.
