The Pontiac Grand Prix was one of the most popular sports cars of the 1980’s. However, the car actually debuted in 1962 as a sportier version of the Pontiac Catalina. Throughout the sixties, the Pontiac Grand Prix was seen as a luxury model car, and set the trend for exterior trim. In the 1970s, the car was made larger, as many cars of that decade due to federal regulations.

However, by the 1980’s the Pontiac Grand Prix was seen as a sports car by many teenagers. This sudden surge in popularity by the younger generation was due in large part to the purchase of the cars by teen sensations. These purchases were emphasized by several interviews published in Teen Beat magazines throughout the eighties.
