From left to right; 1992 Pontiac Grand Am GT (extra chrome around grill), then Cadillac or Lincoln (can't tell really), Dodge Ram Van and some late 80's Buick or Dodge. http://www.carnut.com/iown/sgdamf.jpg < 1992 Pontiac Grand Am SE |

Alright, where to begin? Firstly, that's not a '92, it's an '88-'91 (if you check back on that website you posted, that Grand Am is a '91) - the '92 had a pointier front end. Secondly, it's not a GT. The GT had a different front bumper (compare it to the GT you posted), which came down further (and yes, the baser models did have the chrome rings). The car on the right is a Buick, I'm about 90% certain it's a Park Avenue (ever since I was a kid, I thought the Park Avenue and the LeSabre from the late 80's/early 90's were the exact same car, I'm only beginning to notice the differences). And I'm guessing that the car behind the Grand Am is a Lincoln, but I can't really tell. |

Yes, the red car behind the Pontiac is a early '80s Lincoln Town Car. The car to the right is a 1985 Buick Park Avenue. Only '85 and '86 models had the four-eyes with the sealed beams. And only Park Avenues had the side markers next to the headlights. |

The Pontiac Grand Am only had two models according to KBB and Wikipedia, The SE and GT sedans and coupes. The picture I posted is of a SE! I even said it right next to the link! I wrote: < 1992 Pontiac Grand Am SE ! And Maybe it isn't a 92', but it's a GT. |

You don't want to believe everything you read in Wikipedia without checking other sources. It is written by anyone who wants to add something and has no verification or editing by authorities ![]() -- Last edit: 2006-04-11 19:44:49 |

I think I've confused myself to the point where my mind is about to shut down. However, to start, I was a little wrong, this is an '89-'91 (I have no idea where I got '88 from). Secondly, it's not a GT (which was never available for this generation), and it's not an SE (although you're right that the car you posted was an SE, sorry, the whole GT idea got in my head and scrambled my brains). Reread that Wikipedia article, the two models that were available were the LE and the SE. The SE (such as the one you posted) had that bigger front bumper, which the LE didn't have (and the car in this picture doesn't have). So, yeah, '89-'91 Pontiac Grand AM LE. |
