1997 Pontiac Grand Prix S.E. review from North America
"I Think I am In Love"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Chirp and Squeak and Smell from the Blower Motor for the Heater.
Left Headlamp lens cover moisture.
General comments?
I have had this car for approximately 1 month, it is a 97 Grand Prix S.E. 4 door with a 3.1 Engine. This is a beautiful car, White with Tan Interior.
Lacking? Window Tint. Which will be taken care of soon.
I drive this car to and from work which makes for 100 miles a day. I have found this car to be very comfortable for any period of time driving. I really like the amount of power this car shows.
I Whipped a 97 Mustang (With a 6 Cylinder Obviously) off the line and 2 miles down the road to his misery. It felt good to be able to step on the gas and get the response I was looking for.
So far this appears to be a vehicle that I plan to drive for a very long time. I am reading mostly good reviews on this car and would like to thank everyone involved in allowing me to make an educated decision in purchasing this car. It has all the room I could ever want and just enough power to keep me appeased, and keep me just inside or outside of ticket range depending on my motivation at the time.
I am going to try the suggestion that hobbes1962 made about the 3 in 1 oil for the blower motor.
Has anyone found a better specific glue/silicon for the headlight scenario? If so please email me at workinman@joinme.com.
Thanks for All of the Input. It is Greatly Appreciated!
