1997 Pontiac Grand Prix Test Drive

1997-pontiac-grandprix3

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.
