Pontiac's mid-size sedan presents sleek styling on a four-door body and a cabin with flexible flip-and-fold seats plus a generous cargo compartment.
For 2006 there are three Grand Prix trim designations and three different engines. Grand Prix the entry edition pulls from GM's 3.8-liter V6 racked to 200 hp. The GT goes further through supercharging to pump the action to 260 hp. And GXP marks the first Grand Prix since 1987 to offer a V8 and the first Pontiac to apply GM's Displacement on Demand (DOD) technology that cuts in half the cylinders used for combustion when boosted power is not needed. GXP's 6.0-liter LS2 V8 off Corvette delivers 303 hp.
Transmission for GXP is the Hydra-Matic 4T65-E automatic with four forward speeds and TAPshift (Touch Activated Power) paddles mounted on spokes of the steering wheel.
OnStar telecommunications is standard now for all issues.
