  2004 Pontiac Grand Prix Review | AutoSite New Car Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Pontiac's twin-nostril grille resides prominently at the front, oversized headlights sweep up and to the sides, and large, flared fog lamps anchor the corners of the wide front fascia.
We noticed plenty of nose bob in the softly sprung Pontiac Grand Prix, enough that it caused the ABS to engage during hard braking on undulating pavement.
In the end, the 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix was a forgettable drive in the city, and on a twisty two-lane road we decided it was more effort than pleasure to go fast.

  Pontiac Grand Prix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grand Prix sales soared to an all-time high of over 270,000 units for 1977, the last year for this bodystyle, despite competition from a newly-downsized and lower-priced Ford Thunderbird introduced this year and a restyled Mercury Cougar XR-7 whose bodyshell switched to the T-Bird this year from the discontinued Ford Torino/Mercury Montego.
The Grand Prix remained as a coupe, with its sedan version being the short-lived midsize Bonneville.
The last Grand Prix coupe rolled off the assembly line on July 19, 2002, and the coupe was replaced by the Pontiac GTO for 2004.

Grand Prix came as a base SE sedan or a sportier GT coupe and sedan, as well as with a high-performance GTP package--available for GT models in either body style.
Brashly styled with a confident stance, Grand Prix is a highly capable, sporty midsize car that challenges the class leaders in overall value.

 Pontiac Grand Prix 300 GPX
Rumors from Pontiac indicate that, except for the exaggerated wheel arch flares, this is very close to what the 1997 Grand Prix will be - including the powerful V-6.
For 1996, Pontiac is readying the supercharged 3800 Series II 3.8-liter V-6, an upgunned version of the engine currently used in the Bonneville.
If the hopes, dreams, ambitions, and potential of the GPX are realized in the '97 Grand Prix, those rosy memories of the musclecar era are in for some serious reevaluation.

The original Grand Prix debuted in 1962 as Pontiacís answer to the four place T-Bird, which began the start of the personal-luxury coupe market segment.
Pontiac thought it was going to get the new design and when they found out they didnít, they went ahead and designed their personal-luxury coupe form the existing B-body.

 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix - The Car Connection
Unless you opt for the Grand Prix GTP model reviewed here, that is. In this case, Pontiac slaps a supercharger onto its "3800 Series III" motor and gooses output up to 260 hp and 280 honking lb-ft of torque.
In the new Grand Prix's case, the aesthetics of acceleration are very nicely managed by the laser-precise electronic ("drive-by-wire") throttle on the one hand and by the deft ministrations of optional StabiliTrak traction control on the other.
Inside, the new Grand Prix has essentially banished all of the fleshpot styling cues that my daughters and I formerly found so laughable.

In both the Maxima and Grand Prix I took these test drives just before the dealerships closed at nine, so the industrial park was empty.

The all-aluminum LS4 is based on the Gen IV small-block architecture, but is modified to accommodate the "east-west" mounting position of the Grand Prix's front-wheel-drive chassis.
To fit the "sideways" positioning in the Grand Prix, several changes were made to reduce the engine's overall length, including the use of a shorter crankshaft and a single-belt accessory drive system.
