If hard-driving performance is truly important to you, then a Ford Probe or ChryslerSebring might be a better choice than the Grand Am. But if you just want an affordable car with a little personality, one that will get you to and from work during the week and haul a couple of kids to the circus on Saturday, then the Grand Am is a candidate. It's a perfectly adequate midsize car with enough attitude that you won't feel like you've surrendered to driving a bland family vehicle on your way to a minivan. The Grand Am's aging design is no match for newer midsize models like the Accord, Stratus or Camry. But if the price is right, you could be quite happy together.
