I got my every penny worth for this car 500 bucks it was awsome!
I had a base model grand am with a 5 speed stick
I was working on conveting it to a "LE" looking model switching out bumper covers and tail lights and getting newer grand am rims In a nutshell the car was very fun, very reliable with the "4 tech" motor 2.5 Iron Duke as people call it
by the time I got rid of the car it had foglights upfront (factory) and dual cutout bumper on rear (factory) and I had an exhaust shop put on dual exhaust and tips out the back was pretty sweet!Dec 05, 2011

It gets me from point A to point B. if i could find a 3.2 V6, it might become a sports coupe, but no chance of that anytime soon, not in my name... And engines are pricey. At least its domestic.Mar 16, 2010

The Grand Am didn't age very gracefully. After 15 years water started leaking in, and would form a puddle on the ground. The electronics were obviously out of date, but it ran quite well. In the years I had it, I only had to replace brake lights and an alternator. It was a well made American car that had a sturdy exterior.Sep 13, 2009

It's old, you can't really give a good rating on something this worn down. Performance is horrid, not much for acceleration, but it gets me for destination to destination. This model has no options at all, just your basic things that you need...changed the thermostat due to the car not warming up enough for the heat to be warm...now its somewhat warm, but the heater seems to lack in moving air through all the vents but the two in the middle and the heat isn't warm enough.Dec 04, 2008

If you want to look like an idiot, drive one of these! You can get a pretty good deal on a custom lack of a grill! All you have to do is get into a fender bender and it'll just fall off a few months later! That crunching sound you hear as you run your own grill over is the sound of AWESOMENESS!!! Not long now until you're gonna end up junking it!Sep 15, 2008

it gets me around from point a to point b just fine. The only thing that sucked is the engine blew 2 days after the dealer warranty expired, but the new engine my mechanic put in works great. It's too fun to drive, just something that gets me to where i need to go.Aug 12, 2008

This car has a very well built engine. This car, for being older then me, gets going and stay going. The only thing is that when you're going fast the whole dash board vibrates and shakes, the steering wheel is loose and feels like its not attached to the car. But other then the visual of the car and the interior, the dash and steering wheel can be fixed. Under the hood is good!Apr 04, 2008

This baby was a blast to drive. A peppy DOHC 4 banger kicked enough horses to have fun with and still get good gas mileage. She ran strong.Jan 28, 2008

Mine was a light blue - not a silver like this picture.
I didnt own it for a long time - too many problems with everything from the paint peeling off to the oxygen sensor being replaced constantly.
Loved it when I first got it, I reaaalllly wanted this car!!! Just had one that was built on a Friday at 5pm. :(Jan 07, 2008
