Used 2002 Pontiac Grand Am for Sale

The vehicle has a nice smooth ride along with very luxurious cloth seats. I have driven about 8,000 miles and no problems at all! The sleek look of the grand am makes you feel like you are in a new hybrid sports car, but you also get the fuel economy of a less sleek looking vehicle. It is the best summer cruiser in my personal opinion. It also has a CD player which is very luxurious in a 2002 car! Not many manufactures started putting CD radios in their cars till about 2004. The car also came with rim covers (that are not from the manufacturer) that makes the cars wheels shine during the summer. This car also came in a nice brown/gold color and when polished off it looks astonishing! I'm not exactly sure what the engine in the car is, but my grandpa told me the one that is in it will r...

Story

I remember this car is a beast when I drove back from Michigan to Ohio twice in a 24 hour period and the thing still held up like it has not been driven at all.

Pros

The pros about this car is the fact you can turn the light off while getting into the car so your eyes are not strained. The engine lasts forever, while getting great gas mileage. The speaker system is also a very nice feature about the vehicle.

Cons

Since it is a GM made car, the electrical system is terrible and every so often the turn signals won't work at all making you have to press the hazards to do something in the electrical to use your turn signals again. The fact it is a 15 year old car, and since it is a CD player, you cannot get a cosset tape aux to play music through your phone.

2002 Pontiac Grand Am - Old ugly reliable.

My current daily driver is a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am SE1, a car I purchased in college that I have yet to replace, but I am urgently working on that effort to do so. So, without much ado, there is a lot I dislike about this car. The seating and suspension are like a rickety old sports car, which is to say stiff and unforgiving. The seating is abominable, absolutely uncomfortable. The window motors burn out all the time. The environmental controls are not great either. I had to get an extensive tune-up. The performance is okay at best, but for the sake of parity is probably junk.

Story

I would say that one memorable occasion was making eye contact with an attractive young woman I attend classes with and she looked shocked that I drove such a heap of junk. It was a not great feeling.

Pros

I cannot think of one admittedly. Obviously, a car like this has few of the amenities of the newest iteration of cars. It need not be said, but this car does not have any of the contemporary features: Sirius XM, heated seats, heated steering wheel, etc.

Cons

The aforementioned seating is stiff and uncomfortable. The pylons that connect the roof and the body and base of the car together obscure my view while driving at times...they're too thick. The gas mileage is unbelievably bad. It's atrocious. You will be refueling all the time. I could go and on and on, but I would own this car as a high school student or a college student. Now that I am a working professional and in graduate school, it is a an eye-sore.
