Used Pontiac Grand Am for Sale

The car is pretty decent, and the engine and transmission are smooth. But, over time, it will require constant checks for maintenance. The radio is not anything special, but with the special system they have on the model, it is bearable with a modern radio. Car is still running well at 140,000 miles; however, there are problems with the electrical circuit and mechanical changes.

My car is a tough cookie. Though it's been through a lot of wear and tear and has over 200,000 miles on it, it still gets me to work and all the other places I need to be - usually. There have been several times, especially within the past months, that this car has conked out on me. Whether it was the brakes, the starter, the oil or the tires, there's always been something going on with this old car. I've been stuck in my share of predicaments thanks to my car. Like being stuck on the side of the road, desperately pouring water into the coolant tank, trying to get it to cool off to no avail. Or having a tire blow out on the road, though luckily not the highway. Though my car has made my life a living hell at times, it's also the only thing I have to my name that can give me somewhat of a feeling of independence and freedom. As much as I do sigh every time I get in my old car, with it's broken radio, fabric seats and different smell every time, I know the pain of having no car at all and I'd take a 60/40 car over none anytime.

This was my first car purchase. I fell in love with the outside look of the car and had to have one. I have had two of these in my life, both have been junk-held together with nuts and bolts. The first one, despite being just a couple years old, blew the air conditioning almost immediately. Summers in NC and AL were miserable! It cost about 500 dollars to fix it, and that was on the cheap side!! Just constant problems with these cars and almost from the get go. Transmission at 40k miles. The muffler completely separated from the car. We took the time and effort to take good care of these cars, to no avail. I ended up letting both of them go back to the finance company. I hate to say it, but I did. I should have learned my lesson the first time, but apparently, I like to make my mistakes at least twice first before I learn from it. The outside looks nice. The position of the driver in the steering wheel is supper comfy. They are low to the ground and feel sturdy...somewhat. That's about all the positives I have. Don't buy this garbage. Don't consider it. Ever!!
