1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GT review from North America
"A great car when its actually running"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Spark plug module and ignition coil had to be replaced shortly after I bought it.
My radio/CD display does not always work correctly.
At 85000 miles, the car will not start now, the engine overheated and I had smoke coming out of the exhaust. Don't know what the problem is, but it won't be minor I'm sure.
General comments?
Very comfortable ride.
Good power for a stock engine.
When the car is running, I love it. Problem is, its cost me over $1000 in two months, and I payed $7300 for it two months ago.
