Used 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix for Sale

I am displeased with the Pontiac Grand Prix in large part due to the amount of repairs that it constantly needed beyond the 35,000 mile mark. Before it hit that mark it ran about as average as a car could run, but once it hit that mile marker it became inefficient on gas consumption and mileage. I have had significant issues with the alignment of the tires on the car, and when you drive through the heat of the desert it impacts these tires greatly. I have had my oil checked consistently and without fail, the car will begin to overheat if you drive it beyond 30 minutes. It goes into the dangerous zone for overheating and it is a safety issue. The replacement parts are highly expensive, pretty much each time I take the car in it is guaranteed to cost $700+ due to the expense of the car's parts. One of the major issues is the car was discontinued after a certain point, so replacement parts became hard to come by. It has been an extremely expensive car to maintain and really does not allow for out of state travel due to the chance of over-heating.

This is my third Pontiac Grand Prix and like the rest, this has been a good car. It has a reliable 3800 V6 engine that if taken care of can go well over 200,000 miles. The gas mileage isn't the greatest, especially in the city were it's rating is 16-24 MPG or so. Have not had anything major go wrong while I have owned it. It turned over 100,000 miles recently, and the biggest issue I had was coolant lines to my transmission were leaking. It does get pretty good mileage on the highway, where I have gotten 32 MPG driving to Nebraska frequently. The leather bucket seats are comfortable and the sun roof still works with no leaking. Has a good sound system and the built-in Sirius XM radio is a plus too. Overall this is a very reliable car as long as you do its routine maintenance. One of the best features is the seat warmers. That leather can get cold this time of year and the seat warmers work great.

This car has performed exceptionally well from day one, even though it had been used and refurbished. The ride was smooth, the sound system was fantastic. The seats are adjustable and very comfortable, even the back seat. The truck space is fantastic for a family of four to travel. The heating and air system has always been top notch. The adjustable steering wheel has been a lifesaver for some that have driven my car. I have the windows tinted, so with that and the spoiler on the rear, it is a very sleek looking car. I was able to obtain it in red and it just rode like a sports car. The Pontiacs are reliable vehicles as far as I am concerned, based on my ownership of this car. I could not have been happier with a vehicle purchased for myself! I definitely will consider a Pontiac for a future car when needed!
