1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GT review from North America
"It's OK, but could be better"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radio and compact disc player have been replaced twice.
Sun roof switch and motor have both been replaced.
Control panel in the driver's side door has been replaced.
Blower switch replaced at 20,000 miles.
The clips that holds the inside door panels on have also been replaced.
Light in the passenger side door fell out and needed to be replaced.
There are other things that I could list, but who has that kind of time?
General comments?
The car handles very well around bends and has great pick up.
The cup holders leave a lot of room for improvement, your coffee ends up on the floor if you stop fast.
I'm glad I did not get all of the bells and whistles on this car with all of the parts that have been replaced so far.
On a lighter note, at least it does not have any engine problems.
