What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Pontiac Grand Prix

Price of the Pontiac Grand Prix: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
20084dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		Pontiac depreciation means you can pick up a slightly used one on the cheap.
20064dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		Great deal, less than $10k for a car with many more amenities, features, cool styling, nice interior, gas mileage, and a 100k mile warranty. Whats not to love.
20064dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		a good value
20054dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		My Grand Prix was listed for $28,000 when new. The price I paid for it just 4 years later - $11,500. The depreciation helped me get a very well equipped vehicle, and I pay just $101 a month after the trade in and down payment.
20054dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		I got this GXP for $3k below kbb book value. 303hp for $15k (2 years old, 30k miles)
20044dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6
4-speed automatic FWD		I bought my 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix used for cash at the time was a very fair price.
20044dr Sedan supercharged 260hp 3.8L V6
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		Buying used allows for the previous owner to recieve the depreciation, while I get a great deal on a slightly used car that has a powertrain proven to last. The price of my 04 model was only $2500 more than I sold my 99 GTP with a 50,000 mile difference.

2009 2dr Hatch 161-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 The interior materials do not feel cheap, and it would be very difficult to tell that this car ONLY cost 16,000 dollars.
2007 2dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 good quality interior materials and good fit and finish all round
2005 2dr Hatch 160-horsepower 2.4L I4
