Explore the 2003 Pontiac Grand Am

Owned this car for 5 years

It has been great for me in this time of fluctuating fuel prices. I get 25-28 mpg with city/highway mix. I have owned it since brand new and now have 98,000 miles on it. I have had to replace a fuel pump, windshield wiper motor, repair the radio, and security light problems/malfunction. I have had no major issues with this car. I am a little hard on my car, and I'd say it's holding up great. I have 2 kids ages 10 and 5 that ride in it daily. It still looks like brand new with no dents or scratches. I even hit a deer at 70 mph, (it was dead already) with NO damage. I didn't even get a flat. In fact, I've never had a flat or damaged the rims on this car.

2003 Grand-AM GT with 161,500km

I have paid 6,995$cdn for this car in march 07 It was listed 12,500$cdn for a low mileage car. I had 3 months/5000km warranty on it plus 4 Fusion HRI P225/50x16 high performance sum- mer tires.4 Good-Year Ultra-Grip winter tires was installed on this car.The previous owner was a fork lift representative and he did mostly highway driviving.On june 9,2007 I had to re- place 2 front ABS hub bearing.I have found 2 Fenco Dynapack WH513137 for 115$cdn each. Total 260$cdn tx included.I have to buy 1 OTC hub puller 7208A and a 36mm Ultra-Pro(NAPA) for 70$+tx.I have done the repair myself.I have also solved my ABS,service vehicle soon,trac off warning lights.I had this problem 3 weeks a- go.It was a broken wire at the left hub sensor. Total cost 340$.At the garage 85$/hr for 2hr labor minimum plus the full price for the parts. I was expecting to pay at least 600$cdn and 75$cdn extra for the ABS check-up!It's my first repair after 6000km.My car gives me the feeling of a sport car with a stiff suspension and a fast steering ratio.The rest of the car is A-1 for the brakes,engine and transmission.I have paid 800$ more over a 2003 pontiac sunfire sedan value model with base equipment with CD play- er and 114,000km.My Grand-AM GT has a 3.4L H.O.ram-air,automatic,electric sunroof,chrome- tech 16''wheels,full equipped,Monsoon CD radio 200 watts,carpet,cargo net.I have found that car on the internet in Levis,QC near Quebec Ci- ty.I love the black color of this sedan with the rear aerio spoiler.That car is running strong!!!
