1991 Pontiac Grand Am

Pros: Great Looking; easy maintenance

Cons: None

Review: I have been crazy about the body styling of this vehicle ever since I first saw its twin 'sister' car, the Oldsmobile Calais in the mid 1980's. My sister bought a Calais (ordered to her specifications) and it was such a cool looking car that I...

Pros: Very dependable, fun to drive

Cons: none really

Review: I bought a brand new Grand Am in 1991 for my first new car. I bought this car because it was very affordable. I just loved this car. It was a 2 door with red paint and very sporty. The only thing I did not like about this car later was that I didn't...

Pros: gas mileage, acceleration, availability of parts

Cons: insurance

Review: A few years ago when my 1985 Monte Carlo finally made its trip to that big junkyard in the sky, I was forced into searching for a new vehicle. My search was kind of limits due to major budget constraints (I am a full time student, part time employee)....

Pros: Very reliable!

Cons: Remanufactured parts don't last long.

The Bottom Line: After 11 years and 293,000 miles, this car is still very reliable. We'll never trade it in when we buy a new one.

Review: I bought my 1991 Grand Am brand spanking new. It's a 2-door coupe with a 2.5 liter fuel injected 4 cylinder engine. At age 11, it now has 293,000 miles on it. Same tranny, same engine. Overall, it runs great.

We replaced the heater core in...

Pros: sporty exterior, comfy interior, wants to go FAST, surprisingly good sound on factory-installed system

Cons: replaced starter, alternator, battery, muffler twice, tires...shook like crazy at over 75mph

The Bottom Line: A FUN car...I used to say that, if I were filthy rich, I would just buy ten 1991 Grand Ams in different colors, rather than an expensive new car.

Review: The shape of the 1991s in particular sets them apart...so cute and unique...even with all the stuff ...

Pros: 23 Miles Per Gallon, not hard to start in the winter

Cons: Transaxle Converter Clutch malfunctions, acceleration shaky sometimes, slight miss

Review: I was in need of a new car, so I looked at this Pontiac Grand Am. It has the 2.5L Throttle Body Injection engine (not the Multi-Port Quad 4, thankfully). I had to unplug the Transaxle Converter Clutch Solenoid since it kept sticking closed. This ...

Pros: It was free

Cons: Everything else!

The Bottom Line: I wouldn't give this car to my worst enemy, but maybe to my ex-husband!

Review: I'm not sure if this is a really rotten car, or it just hates me. My sister bought it for $5,000 in 1998, had a new engine put in after a severe rain storm did some damage to the old one, and then gave it to my daughter when she graduated from high...

Pros: Works well when everything is in top condition

Cons: Nothing stays in top condition for a very long time

Review: The Grand Am that I own is a 1991. Plus, it was a hand me down. I paid $1.00 for it, and I'm glad I didn't pay a penny more. It is not worth it. It's the little things that are falling apart, and if you get several little things together, you get a...

Pros: It was a pretty Candy Blue!

Cons: Transmission, Transmission, TRANSMISSION!

Review: I thought hard and long about voicing my opinion on this but I decided that others should know what's it's like to purchase a car (DEMO, 1100 miles at time of purchase, 1991) and have nothing but problems from day one!

I was...

Pros: Handles great, affordable and stylish, good gas mileage

Cons: Mechanical problems at the last minute.

Review: I owned a 1991 Pontiac Grand Am. We bought it brand new from the lot. Power steering, tilt seat, awesome fabric, great system, etc. Rode great to. Handled beautifully!

After a couple of years, the car was great. No problems with it whatsoever....
