Should I get a 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP?
#31
Pontiacs are old GM designs. I dunno if the 05 is a complete redesign but I know the 04 is just a facelift of the pontiacs of the "wider is better" days. Yeah they have more HP, but I'd stick to my tib. It may be fast but I don't think it will be as fun as driving a tib on a warm summers day with sunroof down.. damn these CT winters.

I would say keep the tibby b/c it's so much more unique than a pontiac but i do say i like that orangish color they have on the new grand whatevers (i dont know the difference between prix and am)

^yeah thats the problem, they all look so similar that its sometimes hard to tell the difference. Thats one of the reasons why I hate Pontiac, because all their cars look like they are based off each other. There's no creativity or uniqueness at all going on.

umm dosent the accent look like the elantra? isnt the elantra a 4 door tib? all the same size.
the grand am is extreamly small, larger then a tib though still lol, but the Grand Prix/Boneville/GTO are made on the same chassis, just abit diferant body, even I know the diferance.

yeah saying a grand am looks like a grand prix would be like saying an elantra looks like a tib.(well maybe thats a little exaggerated, but they are pretty different) if you know about the cars at all its WAY easy to tell the difference. I bet its just more of you know the names of the cars, just not which is which and thats why you confuse em. not sayin a ponti is unique, but i dont think they are all the same. they just have characteristics of eachother. same as how a lot of hyundais share similar fronts

Thats why I wanted my tib, when I got it 3 years ago, no one had my car, I brought it home and everyone was asking what it was, but now I see a lot of them, but more gk's so I still feel unique

that is true. grand prix's are EVERYWHERE. but hardly do i see gtp's. they are mostly base model, slow, waste of money se's... haha. thats one reason i love my tib tho! not many rd's around
