Bought it from my mother shortly after she bought it since she got a new car, and we've rarely had to take it in to the shop since we got it. Runs wonderfully, little issues with it in the large amount of time we've had it. AC has conked out, though may just need to be recharged, an the ABS tends to really jolt the car a bit if slowing down more quickly than average from fast speed, particularly on the highway. Also, the front bumper can scrape on curbs, have discovered that many times. Beyond that, very smooth running.

I purchased my 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix used with 45,000 miles on it. Eight years later, the car has 130,000 miles on it, and it still runs great. The engine is quiet, and the ride has always been quite comfortable, no matter the distance. One downside is that the fuel economy at around 17 MPG city and 28 MPG highway is just so-so. Additionally, there are some performance limitations; the vehicle slides a little bit in the snow.

I purchased the vehicle used when it was a year old and 50,000 miles on it. It is one of the most reliable cars I have owed. It currently has 100,000+ miles and I have not had any major issues with it. The fuel economy is somewhat neutral at 28 mpg. The interior in 2008 was standard, but now in 2015 it is extremely outdated and starting to deteriorate. As far a engine components I have keep up on regular scheduled vehicle maintenance and have had no issues. By far if you need a reliable vehicle with no major mechanical issues then this would be a great pick.
