2003 Pontiac Grand Am GT1 review from North America
"A real head turner"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sunroof likes to close on its own, that's when it decides to work at all.
General comments?
The car is a 30th anniversary GT1 with every option. It has good top end power, but lacks coming off the line power without after market mods. The front brakes are starting to wear and the tires, which are 16 inch Eagles, are wearing badly.
Would have liked to see a 4 or 5 speed manual transmission offered.
