Pros: Stylish, sporty, smooth ride
Cons: Power seats wouldn't work
The Bottom Line: An excellent car, well worth the price paid, sporty looking.
My family purchased a 1999 Grand Am SE about a month ago. I would have preferred a GT model, but this one was available at the right price. I am really enjoying driving this car so far. The dimensions of the car are 186.3 inches long, 70.4 inches...

Pros: Quick take off, comfortable ride, cock-pit controls, sharp sporty look!
Cons: History of brake problems, they don't make steal frames like they use to
I recently rented the Pontiac Grand Am for a week before regretfully returning to my own 1990 Pontiac; the 1999 is not in the budget right now. However I did want to share my experience with this car and provide a 'no whole’s bard honest rating'. I’m...

Pros: Good power, transmission. Attractive styling. Easy to work on. Spacious interior.
Cons: Bad brakes, air conditioning, thermostat, water pump, mileage could be better, electrical gremlins
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this car even with the minor problems because it is fun to drive with a comfortable interior, and it looks great
I got this car as my first car when I was 16. Mine is a silver SE with the 170HP V6 and 4 speed automatic. I got it used with ~50,000miles. I fell in love with it from the first time I drove it. The power is more than adequate for most situations, ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Styling, Performance, Handling, Ride, Instrumentation, Storage, ALS
Cons: Transmission Shifting, A/C Compressor, "Low Trac" Light, Back Seat Room
The Bottom Line: I would say go for it if you want performance, style, and a low price.
UPDATE (11/28/02): I got new tires and even though the old ones weren't terrible, the new tires dramatically changed the way the car handles in the snow. I was really impressed. However, I didn't care too much for the price of the tires. It seems the...

Yes, I both love and hate my 1999 Grand Am GT1. It truly is a pleasure to drive... I guess I will start with the good things and save the bad for last.

Pros: Attractive, Powerful, Energy Efficient,
Cons: Low Riding, May Increase Speeding Tickets
Who says a mother of 5 can't drive a sporty car? Not me! I purchased a 1999 Grand Am GT last May and I love it. My two previous vehicles were Honda products and having really enjoyed both of them, I was a bit reluctant to purchase anything else....

How it all started
First I have to say in general I hate cars, and really hate two door cars. I am use to driving SUV, so when I dropped off my Suburban at the dealer to get some work done on it, I requested a loaner vehicle. When they drove...

Pros: Solid, Sporty, Reliable
Cons: Wind Noise
After one year of ownership I strongly recommend this product to anyone interested in a compact car. I purchased the SE1 Sedan for $17,300 from Carsdirect.com. It came with aluminum wheels, four-speed automatic transmission, power windows/locks,...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: No
Pros: Price, performance
Cons: Unreliable
I bought my 99 Grand Am GT in January 99. I liked the looks and performance, and it was a pretty good deal.
Although I still like the car, it is the worst engineered, worst assembled vehicle I have ever owned.
For starters, the low...

Pros: Roomy, Comfortable, Good pick-up, Classy
Cons: Back Windows, Some paneling issues, Loves Gas
Oh, the everlasting searches for vehicles, what price range? What color? What style? The list goes on. My search for the "perfect" vehicle for me came to an end when I saw an advertisement for a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am, it had four...

Pros: interior/exterior looks, A/C, the V6 power, big trunk, fold down back seats to the trunk, All of the readouts for tire press., windshield cleaner, low oil/gas,lit buttons on steering wheel and doors. Wide tires, daytime running lights,electronic seat w/lu
Cons: somewhat noisy ride, Too many things have gone wrong with this car.,front cup holders in a bad spot when in park, BAD BRAKES!, not the best gas mileage, (but I drive in city rush hour traffic).
We first saw the "all new" version of this car in the summer of '98 and fell in love with it. We test drove the car in Nov. '98 and decided to buy it, even though our Pontiac 6000 had much more room. Even with 3 kids, the Grand Am has plenty...

Cons: passenger comfort
After careful research of all cars in the Grand Am's price range, including Chevy Malibu/Caviler, Olds Alero, Ford Taurus, ect.... I found that you get more "bang for your buck" out of the Pontiac Grand Am. At $19,000(after a little dealing)...

Pros: Looks nice
Cons: Cars aren't made to just sit there and look nice
This car is nice but it doesn't have it all. I like driving it, but for some reason it just doesn't impress me. It has pretty decent pickup, but actually my '92 Buick Regal is very comparable in this category. I expected more from the Grand Am. Ok,...

I bought a black 1999 Pontiac Grand Am coupe in August of 1998. It was one of the very first cars off the assembly line from Lansing (I live in Michigan). Since then, I have put 34,000 miles on it to date. I originally bought the car due to its sporty...

Pros: Fast, fun, perfect size
Cons: Faulty brake parts
My first Grand Am was a 1996 two-door. The car itself handled very nice and was fun to drive. During the first year, I had to have two different sets of brakes put on the car because of part failure. After having the car two years, I traded it in for...
