Been looking for a month or so now (since I decided that I was going to trade to a Grand Am) and thought it was time to say hi. As I said I traded to a 99 Grand Am (from a 2001 Volvo V40) I loved the volvo but with new job couldn't keep it. I needed to get something less expensive. I wound up getting the Grand Am because it seemed like a good deal, even with the higher milage (it has 234,000 km on it, but the price was right) it runs and drives pretty much like new. I do need to do the fan resistor replacement, but everything else works (it is a black se 2 door 4cyl BTW).
I am impressed by how well the car has held up to the milage, there are really no rattles to speak of (from the interior) , and like I said it seems to drive like new. The one thing that I need to do something about is the front seats, the drivers in particular is pretty much worn out (foam in the cushions is dead). I'll ask about that in the apropriate place when I get some $ saved up.
All in all I am very happy with my Grand Am (and my first GM product) so far. (it has been about 4 weeks 4,000 km now) looking forward to making it even better in the next few months.
