First Drive: 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix

[geno]

I like the HUD idea, nice to see that finally trickle down from the Vette

As far as looks go, the front looks a little disproportionate ... hrm

My take on things????

I think the 04 Grand Prix should have become the Grand Am and the "new GTO" should be the new Grand Prix.

Only nomenclature but more fitting.

That said I still like the '04 GP competition. Its no Trans Am but......................

I don't think so... wait til the new Grand Am comes out in '05 with 255+ horses, 6-spd, and AWD.

Pontiac is doing a fine job on upgrading their current lineup, and adding to it. Solstice anyone?

Wasn't that concept called teh G6 debuted a few years ago but never made it production? GM has a lot of great concepts, its a shame none of them every make it to the dealer.

There was a review of the new Grand Prix in our local paper a few weeks ago. The reviewer slammed it for its dismal build quality, ride, etc... Apparently that pissed off a few readers who sent him some comments that they posted in the paper. Quite entertaining to read.

Oh and I think the current gen of the Grand Prix (not the 2004, but 1999-2003) are beautiful cars. They have the right proportions and look.

Originally posted by: Freejack2 The front is a little plain but I think the new back end looks better than the current model. The tapshift sounds nice but I prefer a manual transmission. All in all sounds like Pontiac really got it right with 04 model. And of course you know I gotta say this... It looks better than the Toyota Camry. 😛

I don't know about all that. I like the styling of the Camry SE over the Grand Prix anyday.

camry = fugly land boat

:Q at least Toyota didn't make the Aztek... 😛

Austin powers voice ouch baby...very ouch Austin powers voice off

Very true tho 🙂

Please do some research before you post. If you read anything about the G6 at all, you would know that it's purpose was to be a look at the direction pontiac is headed and serve as a base for the '05 Grand Am. So you see, it pretty much is going into production.
