2008 Pontiac Grand Prix User Reviews

Pros

Factory rims and nice interior

Cons

Torque steer.

Purchased As Used

Outstanding family / sports car. The only small problem I have is the torque steer, when taking off fast steering goes in another direction instead of going straight.

I have a 2004 Grand Prix GT and I love it. It runs wonderful, it is comfortable and smooth on short and long trips. Plus I get 34-36 mpg on the highway and 22-24 in town. Altho, it is 5 years old, it looks just like the new Grand Prix. Of course there are changes on the interior.
As long as it continues to look good and gets good gas mileage I plan on keeping "her". I think it is a shame that General Motors is discontinuing the Pontiac brand. I have driven many of the cars and found them all to be excellent automobiles. If and when I were able to trade in my present car, I would definitely want another Pontiac....read morehide

Pros

Great look and power! Like the dash panel. Solid car

Cons

Handling tends to pull to one side on hard take-offs. Wish gas mileage was better but not bad! 24mph

Purchased As Used

Good sound car that I hope last for a long while. My only fear is rattles. I had a Pontiac Grand Prix GT "95" before and it developed rattles by 50,000 miles.

Pros

engien is spiffy , heated seats rock,and the monsoon sound system is amzing

Cons

wish the back had more room, i wish pontiac didnt discontinue it

i have and 05 grand prix i havnt had any issues i am a mechanic and i think this is the best mid size car u can buy on the market today, sure the dashboard is made of plasti, but in the long run make it lighter, the crash test are superior for a midsize car and the handling is tight and good at cornering i have a the gt 2 package but the car all together in amazing...read morehide

Pros

Very sporty, comfortable seats, quick acceleration, good gas mileage (6 cyl.).

Cons

None

I fell in love with this car as soon as I seen it on the lot. The test drive sealed the deal!

Never owned a better car. Has the best of everything at a good price. Great car with all the trimmings.

Pros

quick,great gas milage 26 overall, fun to drive and handles great,

This car will go 0-65 in no time at all and burn little gas, I go 398-428 miles on a tank of gas, that is mountain and city driving.

Pros

Fit and finish good. Radio/speackers good, brakes good, a little over steer but good

Cons

windsheld angle cant use visor well. made for smaller person, harder than should be to enter/exit

mpg town/hyw 21, dash light adjuster inop.& dealer cant fix,At 70mph handles very well and still has lots of power, wish the steering wheel/colum could extend towards driver, overall i like the car.

Pros

Performance, interior, chrome wheels, wide opening rear doors

Cons

None

Imagine this...You pull up next to an '08 Mustang GT and beat it off the line. Thats no dream, that reality. The power of this car is quite impressive. Not only that, but this car is so much more practical than others that can compete on performance...and at a fraction of the cost. This car is one of the best bang for your buck vehicles on the market today. In these economic times we should all search for real value in whatever we buy, and there isn't a better new car value around....read morehide

Pros

Great Car, Good Handling, Fast, An Eye Catcher, Lots Of Room For Ham Radio, Nice Steering Controls

Cons

Gas Mileage Horrible. 18 In City And About 19.4 on Freeway Probably Due To Big Engine

Overall, the Grand Prix is a fantastic car. Great styling and very fun to drive. Has plenty of speed and can get away from you pretty fast. The handling is awesome. Wish Pontiac would continue to make the car for year to come but price and gas mileage might be a drawback.
