Description
The Pontiac Grand Am's flashy styling is toned down for 2003.Pontiac calls the Grand Am 'sports car excitement with room for everyday life.' It is practical, particularly in sedan form.Obviously, this combination appeals to a lot of people because the Grand Am is one of the 10 best-selling vehicles in the U.S. The Grand Am has long relied on overstated styling to make a strong first impression.It shouts Pontiac excitement with its road-hugging lines and extroverted styling cues.There's no confusing this car with other compact cars and, at a quick glance, it could be mistaken for the bigger Pontiac Grand Prix. For 2003, however, Pontiac has stripped the aggressive body cladding from the sides of the Grand Am along with the ribbed bumpers.The new look is lighter, cleaner, and more appealing in our view.We still wouldn't call the Grand Am understated.
