Summary
Anyone who needs a full-size car, but prefers a car with a sporty personality, should enjoy the Pontiac Bonneville. It has a unique look that fits Pontiac's performance image. The supercharged SSEi offers acceleration performance fully competitive with top near-luxury imports, yet offers much more interior room.In its base SE form, the Bonneville compares favorably with the Dodge Intrepid and Chrysler Concorde.
