business and family vehicle should look no further than
the 2003 Pontiac Bonneville. With an awesome collection
of standard features and optional add-ons, this powerful
front-wheel drive is a solid entry to this very competitive
class.
Available Models
The 2003 Pontiac Bonneville has and SE, SLE and SLEi, which
has the top level of luxury and the most powerful engine.
However, neither power nor standard equipment are scarce
in the SE edition.

it has a long list of features that includes air conditioning,
cruise control, cloth upholstery on front buckets and a
rear bench seat, and AM/FM/CD player and a full collection

Also representative of the relatively high level of luxury
available at this base level is the 6-way power driver's

steering and many other items are included. Then, with the
SLEi, leather upholstery, automatic climate control, Monsoon
Stereo and a 12-way power driver seat are included. This
car is already in the dictionary beside "fully-loaded"
but many more options are available for those who want a
lower trim level with a few specific desired add-ons.

spoiler, fog lights and alloy wheels. Optional features
