1997 Pontiac Grand Am GT review from North America
"A sporty, economical car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have just bought this car recently.
I had to replace the alternator, which was only $150 with a lifetime warranty.
General comments?
The Pontiac Grand Am GT is an awesome car. I have read other reviews about this car and hear mostly complaints. This is an awesome, quick and economical car.
Of course some Grand Ams have to have more money put into them. That is understandable with every car, it all depends on different things. Like how the car was treated, and maybe some factory defects of the products in them. Some cars are lemons, then others are just fine of the same make and model.
Also, most of the reviews I read were of cars with 4 cylinder engines. There is a big difference between 4-cylinders and 6-cylinders.
All in all, I like my recent purchase of a Grand Am GT, and I get many compliments and looks at it.
