This is a very rare car, nly 749 built in 1989. In 1989 Pontiac completely overhauled the Grand Prix with ASC McLaren's help, esulting in a limited series of ASC McLaren turbo coupes which carried more aggressive cladding, ood louvers, nd a 205-hp edition of GM's 3.1-litre OHV V6.
Here is a great old school video of MotorWeek's review of the car in 1990 with host John Davis. John Davis's voice is unmistakable from the 1980's-1990's:
- Please google: "testdrivejunkie 1990 Pontiac Grand Prix". The video is half way down the page:
• No leaks at all from the motor or transmission.
• Paint on the car is in great condition and is very shiny/glossy, xcept for a very few spots where clear coat is thinning. There is a small area on the hood where paint is coming off.
• Car has the dealer installed rear spoiler, hich has some paint fade as well.
• Interior is in very good condition with no rips or tears in the leather. The leather has been treated with professional leather protectant to preserve it, o the leather is supple and not cracking at all.
• Car was never driven in winter
• A/C just recharged this week, o blowing nice and cold
• Car was stored in heated garage for last 5 years...I have it out now and am driving it to enjoy it a bit before it is sold
• These cars were Pontiac's first change to FWD from the legacy rear wheel drive Grand Prix's of the early to mid 80's. The most notable new features for the 1989 model year included heads-up display, BS and an electronically controlled dash(which is known to have some intermittent problems), ince this car was literally one of the first 750 cars built with this new technology. The 'low fuel' orange gas warning light comes on(even though the gas gauge itself is working normally and shows that there is plenty of fuel in the tank). Also, he ABS occasionally comes on(although the brakes work normally). These items do not affect the cars drive-ability whatsoever.
