| 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP | www.supercars.net |
Pontiac bridges the gap between luxury and sport in their 1997 Grand Prix. With the GTP package, this car screams to 60 in 6.6 seconds, while it still sits 5 people comfortably in the car. The GTP package includes a supercharged 3.8 liter V6 that makes you wish that the car came in a stickshift. With the overhead display speedometer, leather, a spoiler, heated driver's seat, and power everything, the car's sticker price still comes out to be under $25,500. The new body style and the new wide track system just adds to the appeal of this car.
