grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 09/13/07 11:10 AM

"""""Hi,

Last night a met a friend's boss, and he has a Grand Am, he doesn't stop talking about the advantages of having a newer model than my Grand Prix GT 97, and you know, i notice he wanted to justificate why an older man has a car which seem to be less than mine, and why his car is much better than mine (is not my opinion, i really don't care)but he was anoying, and I really don't wanted to cause a discussion because of my friend. But next time i would like to have strong and easy to understand arguments to SHUT HIS MOUTH OFF. Could you please help me??

Thanks in advance.""""

LMAO!!! here we go again!!!

stock, the GP is heavier than the GA, BUT the GP also has more available horse and torque than the GA, stock. There's more aftermarket available for the L36 and L67 than for the 60* V6s that the GA/G6 have.

Your Grand Prix, with three ignition wires wrapped around the coil packs, is still better than a Grand Am... devilwink

The original thread is on Pg 63 and had 390 posts. I wonder if this one can go as long? It only took the other thread 2 years to get there.

Grand Prix's all the way. They have far more potential, and plus Grand Am's are chick cars. The name is way too close to grandma, as well.

Grand Am's make a great car for a 16 year old girl... and that's about it

why not a 16 y/o boy? not enough power to do anything with, but still kinda nice looking. That, and since the GA is a chick's car, the girls would be attracted tot he car anyway, right?

But now, once that boy becomes a man, he'd be better off getting into a GP.

Not enough power to do anything with? You realize 3400 GAs have the same horses as the old 5.0 Stangs did back in the 80's? If you can break tires loose with an auto, you've got some power.

Let go of your 60* V6 roots, man! LOL

the 5.0 stangs of the 80's were complete turds. That comparison isn't saying much of anything.

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 09/13/07 08:27 PM

x2 with drummer. Besides, the Metro and Fiesta were able to break the tires loose sometimes, too. I've done it (oh, I should never have admitted to driving those cars).

And GP GT Guy wont hafta step up to a GP when he becomes a man, he's already got a man's car. the transition's gonna be that much smoother.

I knew I shouldnt have said anything about those two econo boxes

those GA trannies, are they tuned to be softer and nicer than the 4T60E/65E? or are they using the same tranny we are?

my 17 year old girlfriend drives a GA...sooooooooooo sloooooooooooooowww.....and i think our cars get the same gas mileage...hmmm maybe when my foots out of it...

would be even remotely possible to put a 3.8 SC motor in a GA? that'd be KINDA cool...kinda... :rolleyes:

G 6s dont even have the same torque and horsepower specs as a grand prix, they messed up on them big time, I laugh everytime I see one on the road.
Posted by: drummerboy1307

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 09/14/07 02:10 AM

I think the G6's look nice. As far as performance aspects, GP owns both the Grand Am and the G6 big time.

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 11/15/07 01:17 AM

I found a video on Youtube a few days ago. It was SUPPOSEDLY someone in a GTP racing against their friend in a G5...and the G5 walked all over the GTP. That makes no sense. MAYBE a modded G6 could take a stock GTP, but a G5? It's got only a marginally better chance than a ricer...
Posted by: ifitwasnt4u

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 11/15/07 02:33 PM

Maybe the driver of the GTP wasnt very experianced... All depends on the driving as well... But cant see a G5 taken a GTP...
Posted by: theone2043

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 11/15/07 03:52 PM

maybe it was someone that was used to driving a civic that had 2 red buttons on the steering wheel that he thought were hooked up to some magical stuff in the trunk..sorry bud its everything you need under the hood no need to hide any gems in the trunk haha...

lol...ne way
I saw a GA at a stoplight I was walking by that the driver did something to the exhaust. It sounded real choppy, loud and clunky.

But as far as GPvsGA? I honestly couldn't say because I've never driven a GA

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 11/15/07 10:47 PM

I don't think I've ever ridden in nor driven a Grand Am. They look kinda small inside, though.
Posted by: RooK

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 11/15/07 11:05 PM

I've only ridden in one, and it was a '89 Grand Am w/ 2.0 Turbo that my sister bought for $300 and owned for a short amount of time. It had no problem spinning tires until it threw a rod through the block one day on the interstate... probably due to some idiotic mechanics we had working on it (one event followed the other). My only regret is not being into cars at the time, I'd love to have it.

I don't understand why anybody would have to compare a GA to a GP!
Persons questioning this, and those supporting GAs have to be thinking:
*Smaller is better!
*Cheaper is better!
*Weaker is better!
*Less reliable is better!
*I'm a chick!
*It gets me from point A to point B!

Seriously.... what are people thinking?

Grand ams are okay but its too small for me. I raced my friends brother 03 grand am in my se and I had him by only a car length.

He swears his grand am goes to 150mph but I told him it doesn't but anybody knows the speed limit on the grand am.
Posted by: RooK

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 03/12/08 11:03 PM

I think the GTs cutout around 130mph and have 3.29 gears. SEs cutout around 105mph and have 2.9 gears. Somewhat the opposite of our GTs/GTPs. The speedos are registered for 150mph in the GTs though (the only thing I dislike about our instrument cluster is the lack of upper range).

whens that movie due to be released from the vaults next, anyone know? One of the very last hand-drawn Disney Classics. Gotta have some proof for my kids that, once upon a time, people, too, had great and wonderful skills and gifts. It wasnt just computers back in the good ol' days before the turn of the century and the dawn of the new millennium.

i just spent about 20 minutes reading through this thread, the GA GT is pretty quick, a stock gtp goes 126 mph (speed limiter, personally proven) and a stock 93-96 prelude vtec will beat a stock gtp.

Do you mean in the quarter mile, or in the stock top speed? Because I seriously doubt that car could beat a GTP in the quarter mile.

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 03/15/08 12:06 AM

i had a 93 prelude vtec and that thing would walk all over my gtp when it was stock, i raced a few of them, destroyed em. the gtp gets the launch but the prelude will catch it. the prelude hit the rev limiter at 142, so top speed the gtp with limiter removed would have a higher top speed. the prelude also handled A LOT better. i would still rather have the gtp because i am a quarter mile guy and the gtp is cheaper to mod.

and to add, the prelude puts 195 hp at the crank, has a 5spd, revs to 7800, and weighs considerably less.
stock for stock, prelude wins, that is all i'm saying and that is the end of it

here is a race, the prelude has an h22 swap, same motor and trans as a 93-96 prelude
91 prelude h22 vs a pontiac gtp.
the prelude is making the same sound i just made about 20 min ago in the bathroom.

I think it's a gen earlier as well. You can see the wiper on the passenger side the 97s the wipers hide. Plus I don't hear the supercharger.

Idk maybe my friend prelude isn't a vtec but i'll find out. Of course, he is kind of a big guy, maybe the weight advantage was gone lol. but i had no problem in my stock GTP against his 93 prelude.
Posted by: moodmangtp

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 03/15/08 08:04 PM

the prelude was probably an si, vtec preludes in the 93-96 model year are pretty rare and are pretty expensive, it really doesn't matter, i hate these "this car is faster than that car" arguments, the only way to find out is to race.

More aggressive styling. The instrument panel has separated parts, speedo goes to 150mph, seats have larger side bolsters, and a real handbrake with leather boots on it and the shifter. Our interiors are really understated in comparison, but luckily our engines aren't. wink
Posted by: Jon Szarka

Re: grand am/g6 vs grand prix - 03/26/08 01:17 AM

I love our instrument panel. And our speedometer doesn't need to go to 150, we have heads up display, and honestly we don't need to know how much faster we are than them anyway. ha.

I don't. It was an option only for GTs and GTPs. Not everyone has a HUD.

Yep but when your speeds limited to 106 do you need a speedo that reads higher?
