1988 Pontiac Grand Am LE Coupe

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Introduced as part of Pontiac’s N-body lineup, the Grand Am blended sporty styling with practical front-wheel-drive efficiency during the late ‘80s. Positioned as a step above the base model, the Grand Am LE trim level combined aerodynamic bodywork with modern conveniences and tech inside. The coupe's distinctive two-door profile, available two-tone paint schemes, and period-correct details, such as integrated rear spoilers and louvered trim, helped define the RADwood-era’s design language.

This 1988 Pontiac Grand Am LE Coupe is finished in two-tone Flame Red and Black over a gray cloth interior. Showing approximately 90,700 miles, it is powered by a 2.3-liter inline-four engine paired with a three-speed automatic transmission.

The car was repainted in 2024, its air-conditioning system has been converted to use R134a refrigerant, and it is equipped with window tint and an aftermarket dual-outlet black-tip exhaust system.

This 1988 Pontiac Grand Am LE Coupe is now offered at no reserve with some service records, a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Georgia title in the seller’s name.

From the seller: "I would describe this Grand Am as an honest, well-preserved driver with normal age-related wear. There are minor rust pockets on the rear driver-side and passenger-side undercarriage, along with light undercarriage corrosion consistent with the vehicle’s age. These areas are intentionally disclosed to provide complete transparency for prospective buyers.

The driver-side door molding is loose and requires securing. The driver’s seat fabric is split from normal wear and tear. The cassette player is inoperative. There is also a minor crease in the roof from a fallen tree branch."

Additional Information

From the seller: "This Grand Am LE has been a rewarding vehicle for me to own and preserve. Over time, it has become more of a classic car show vehicle than a regular driver, and with three other vehicles competing for my attention, I feel it is time for this Pontiac to find a new enthusiast who will continue to appreciate and enjoy it.

Finding an original, well-maintained Grand Am LE in this condition has become increasingly difficult. Its documented maintenance history, accident-free CARFAX Vehicle History Report, careful storage, roadworthy mechanical condition, and period-correct appearance make it an excellent candidate for RADwood events, Pontiac gatherings, local and regional classic car shows, or simply enjoying on the open road.

This Grand Am is being offered at no reserve, giving collectors and enthusiasts an outstanding opportunity to acquire a well-preserved piece of Pontiac history."
