2005 Pontiac Grand Am Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Drivers generally enjoy the 2005 Pontiac Grand Am for its performance and power, particularly praising the smooth ride and fuel efficiency of the V6 engine. Many appreciate the attractive interior and fun driving experience. On the downside, some expressed concerns about the upkeep costs and the vehicle's gas mileage not being the best, with a few noting issues with wheel bearings and struts."
I absolutely love this car, it handles great, especially around curves. This car was made for the road. The fuel economy isn't the best, but it's worth it for the power. Super cheap to maintain and have no complaints at all about this car.
October 19, 2011I have had two of the Pontiac Grand Am SE. The first was an 01' and the current is an 03' both are good cars for the money. They are fun to drive but not a ton of power for the auto enthusiasts. They do nothing exceptionally but do everything well. My bigest tip is that the GT is the same as an SE except for a spoiler (which comes on some SE cars) a "GT" wheel package (also comes on some SE cars) and a factory installed cold air intake. I installed a K+N air intake that is better than the factory installed one for under $100. It gave it a better performance boost than the factory GT package would have at a far more reasonable cost.
July 19, 2008This type car is wonderful. Good smooth riding, easy to drive. Great radio and CD player. A/C and Heat were excellent. This car was my baby and so much fun to share with my friends. I took several long trips, with no problems at all. Enjoy as I did.

September 9, 2020I like just about everything on this car, the 3.8L engine has lots of power, very rummy inside, great gas mileage for a v6 engine, it go lots of miles but still running great, everything works on this car. looking to get the v8 gto.
July 16, 2014my car still looks good for being in the country for a year, no major damage to it at all. it runs really good. still has the same motor, and its really good on gas, at least 28 or so. breaks work really good, interior is still looking brand new, and it takes corners really nice.
August 31, 2008good on gas and great performance
June 22, 2008Overall I plan to drive this car till it just wont go any more. It should last me many years to come and it seems to be very reliable so far. I took one trip with this car and that was enough for me...it was about 250 miles round trip and my butt had enough by the time I reached my destination and the road noise drove me nuts. Great work car if your commute is under 50 miles. Definitely had to upgrade the stereo and speakers for my commutes.
May 24, 2012great gas mileage but costs a lot for up keep. Not a bad looking car but would never buy one again. Cost of ownership is not bad but it all depends on what needs to be fixed and where you take it.
January 10, 2010Good on gas, sporty style, fun to drive
March 1, 2008great highway gas millage,easy to handle on turns,accelerates very quickly,interior great looking. fully loaded [ps,ts,pw,powerseats,pm,ect]...a little hard on wheel bearings and struts other then that it's a great car and fun to own
