Pontiac's Bonneville sure is an eye-catcher: aggressive, distinctive, even slightly overstated. It backs up its looks with a responsive, sporting personality. The supercharged SSEi, particularly, can run with the best from overseas. Yet underneath those racy lines lives a practical sedan with real full-size room.
The Bonneville was redesigned for the 2000 model year, and has not changed substantially since then. For 2001, the OnStar navigation and security system became standard on all models, and heated front seats joined the option list. Revisions for 2002 are a little more substantial and include new front and rear fascias for the SE trim level, 17-inch wheels for SE and SLE, and more standard equipment all around.
