While it was possible to buy a new late-1980s/early-1990s Lumina, Cutlass Supreme, or with a five-speed manual transmission, almost nobody did so. These cars have become pretty rare by now, so the chances of finding a five-speed Grand Prix in the junkyard are about the same as finding a; it’s possible, but not likely. Here’s an ’89 coupe I found in a Denver yard last week.
In 1989, the manual transmission was available only in a Grand Prix equipped with the 2.8-liter V-6 engine. If you got the 3.1, your transmission had to be an automatic. This one has those pop-out cassette-tape holders that were so popular in the 1980s.
The combination lock on the Grand Prix’s glovebox probably encouraged many a thief to tear the entire dash off the car with a pry bar. The Colorado sun has been rough on this car’s upholstery. From air dam to tailpipe, the ’89 Grand Prix is guaranteed to excite! Note the woman using her futuristic car phone in this ad. Poised and precise.
Swift and confident. The Grand Prix sport sedan is “the most eagerly awaited driver’s sedan in Pontiac history.”. I put 150k miles on a Grand Am GT, and found it fairly comfortable, quick enough to get into trouble and handled well enough on what passes as a twisty road out here on the plains, and it had major reliability issues. The list of stuff I replaced would make your eyes water, especially the parts that were replaced more than once.
I had a 4×4 GMC truck at the same time, and that was an unreliable piece of junk too, and after these two I vowed no more GM vehicles. I replaced the GMC with an early Nissan Frontier and the Grand Am with a first gen Focus, and have only had to do routine maintenance on either vehicle.
Maybe new-GM is better, but I’m not sure I want to take that chance, especially from the used car marketplace after the factory warranty has expired. PentastarPride I’ve always wondered about this too, then I was thinking the friction inside of the shredder probably generates enough heat to kill any microorganisms. There’s a whole lot of smoke and steam every time I see a shredding plant. The plastic is separated long before the scrap hits the furnace, at least that’s how it’s supposed to be done. Otherwise, we might as well drop entire cars, refrigerators, etc. Right in, skipping the fragmentation and materials separation stage.
Maybe that explains the shoddy, quick-to-rust steel coming from China. Willyam Ah yes. I remember when my quite spoiled girlfriend in our Senior year was gifted a new Grand Am in 2-door/Quad4/Grey over grey. I had sat in one at the Pontiac dealer listening to “Touch of Grey” on a nice factory stereo for the first time, and thinking how nice it actually was.
(This was a SMALL town, the dealer still in the small brick main-drag building from the forties.) She was angry that she couldn’t talk her Dad into a Prelude. Looking at how this vintage of GM has agedI have to agree she had a point. Bullnuke I bought an ’88 new. I purchased that cassette deck shown and installed it myself (estaba hecho en Mexico, esta bien hecho)as it was an option not on the car at the dealership. The only manual cars available were higher-end models, above of a poor sailor-with-a-family’s price range. Not a bad car, returned really great mpg’s (around 30 on the highway), pretty good performance for a guy who’d owned air-cooled VW’s for the previous 15 years.
I cannot forget the headlight boxes – they were a glass box painted around the back, top and sides with black paint that flaked off freely and created an underhood light show with light going everywhere through the exposed transparent areas. I traded it off for a new Cheyenne 1500 extended cab after a year – transmission lock-up torque convertor stopped unlocking and kept stalling the engine at each traffic light.
I used to LOVE these commercials. In 1988 or so, MTV did some big thing called the Museum of UnNatural History, where advertisers set up product kiosks in shopping malls. The Pontiac kiosk showed a version of the video below on a huge theater-type thing that was 4 screens high and 4 screens wide. Parts of the video utilized the whole thing full-screen, while other parts showed different scenes on different screens at the same time.

I stood there and watched it on endless loop, mesmerized. Don’t judge me. Edsel Maserati I had one of those. A 1989 with SE trim, the 3.1 V6 with auto.
I’d been driving econo cars up to that point and decided I wanted a cruiser. I rented a Grand Prix, liked it and bought one. The other car I considered was the Nissan Maxima, which was priced several hundred more. (I had a brace of motorcycles to satisfy the other urges.) The photo here of that wrecker’s interior, that’s a pretty good summation of what happened to my Pontiac’s interior.
Luckily I married a gal who got in there with her sewing kit and made it right. The funniest part of the interior was the brace of levers on each side of the steering wheel, which, combined with the orange gauge lights, made a real Flash Gordon set-up. Everyone commented on it.
I actually liked that Grand Prix. It was not heavy — 3,300 pounds, if I recall. After I replaced the Goodyears with better tires, it went haring through California’s coastal mountains with decent dispatch and resolution. For all the limitations of FWD, it was fun.
Then I drove it across country and it got better than 30 mpg. The only issue was a bit of blistered paint, which GM had redone gratis. Replaced the alternator. The thermostat, too. The brakes needed attention. That was it for for 100k. Allan850glt Besides the manual trans, the other rarity of this GP is what a “stripper” it is.
I noted the lack of power windows, locks, etc. I had a “thing” for these cars back in the early/mid ’90s and in having viewed and driven several, I had never run across a coupe lacking the PW or PDL. After obtaining a nice white ’96, my “thing” for these cars expired rapidly. As rapidly as the the POS degenerated from a shiny new car into a worn out pile of crap with under a hundred thousand on the clock and its second transmission, entire suspension and steering ready to let go at any time. I guess I really can’t complain for eight years of service but for a car that was exceptionally well maintained it just couldn’t hold itself together. Those interior plastics (blue in my case) degraded quickly, looking oxidized and brittle. Squeaky dash syndrome was omni-present.

Clear coat delamination was a big issue with these things as well. The stupid VATS pass key also added fun when turning starting the car into a ten to fifteen minute procedure. Damn chip would wear out or just be “dirty “. I was not at all sad to see my GP go to a new home when the time came.
