If the Grand Am has fairly decent mileage (under 100k or just around it), and is well maintaned that's a better buy. I'm not usually a fan of American cars but Pontiac Grand Ams of the late 90s have  seemed decent.

If you could afford it though, go for the Acura. Manual transmission is always better, and Hondas last (if I didn't wreck my '91 Honda Civic several years back I'd still be driving it).

But either way get a trusted friend with mechanical skills or a trusted mechanic to give each one a good inspection first (if you're buying from a private seller). Again, if the Grand-Am is in great shape, that's definitely a better deal (having $2500 spare in the bank is always nice for or emergencies or other things).
