well which is it a grand am or a grand prix?



The grand prix gt's with the 3.8 make almost 200 hp so I would say it would be close with a new edge 6er, the grand ams only make around 170is so you could probably take one....but it might be closer than you think

i've had a grand am 4 door 2000 and 2003 (drunk driver killed my 2000).. the '00 was a 4cyl but had some decent get up and go.. the '03 was v6 and felt decently quick, even for a 4 door.. even then I was sure a v6 mustang would beat either of those cars.. however, there are 2door grand am GTs and Grand Prix GTs that can scoot pretty well and might give you a run for your money.. and if its one of those I might actually bet on the pontiac, close though.

back when my friends V6 New Edge was stock (exhaust thats it) he raced a Grand Am GT (4 people in the Grand AM) and they pulled on us...go from a stop and you should be able to pull on him...
