1997 Pontiac Grand Prix Test Drive

It was time to start treating the Grand Prix with a little respect. Make that a lot of respect. In addition to a new, far more rigid unibody with a 3.0-inch wheelbase stretch and more interior room, completely reworked suspension and steering, beautiful new styling inside and out, and the deletion of the old four-cylinder base engine. Pontiac did something more. It gave the Grand Prix real firepower. On top of the perfectly adequate 3.1-liter V-6 as the new base engine, there was a pair of 3.8-liter upgrades. The first net you a 195-horsepower swat on the hiney with the press of the accelerator, the second slams you with 240 supercharged horsepower. You’ve got to respect that.
