Up for a NO RESERVE auction today is a gorgeous, 1 Owner 1997 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi sedan with 159k miles. This SSEi was one of only 4,446 out of 74,015 total Bonnevilles produced in 1997.  I would rate the exterior of this Bonneville to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. As you can see, this is a gorgeous vehicle. It is finished in dark cherry metallic with a supple taupe leather interior. While the exterior is not flawless, it shows extremely well for a 16 year old vehicle. The body lines up nice and straight. The hood, doors and trunk open/close easily. All of the exterior trim is intact and in good condition. This Bonneville has obviously been garage kept. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The alloy wheels show extremely well and are wrapped in a good set of rubber with above average tread. There is a small scrape on the bottom right front bumper near the fog light, and a touch up on the left front corner of the bumper. The airbag light is on, and the interior lights do not appear to be functioning correctly. Please take your time and check out each of the photos carefully to see how nice this SSEi looks!

I would rate the interior of this Bonneville to be in EXCELLENT CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. As you can see, the previous owner has taken excellent care of this vehicle. Pride in ownership is extremely noticeable when looking over this SSEi. The door panels are clean and tight. All of the buttons are present and work properly. The carpets are clean and full looking throughout the cabin. A full set of original SSEi floor mats are included as well. The dash and headliner are clean. The leather seats are supple and comfortable. Both front seats are power operated and go in a variety of different directions and have many adjustments for your comfort. The power windows, locks, seats and mirrors all work properly. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. The air conditioner blows ICE COLD AIR, too. The audio system is the original BOSE equalized sound system which powers up and works properly, except that the bulb for the radio display is out. This is a common Pontiac problem. It also has a tire inflator in the trunk, but I did not test it. A full set of owners books are also included. The trunk is spacious and clean.

Mechanically, this Bonny appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 3.8L Supercharged V6 engine starts right up and runs smoothly. I did not see any leaks and the engine does not smoke. Her road manners are excellent. It is truly a pleasure to drive this car. The suspension feels tight. The steering feels neutral and responsive. The brakes stop this full sized sport sedan with no issues. The engine makes good power and cruises easily. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts normally with no issues. She is wearing current PA Safety and Emissions inspection stickers good until July 2014. Out on the highway, she cruises nice and straight with no complaints. This car was made for the interstate. With the supercharger, this car can really get out of its own way! I had a new water pump and  set of drive belts installed this week. The valve cover gaskets appear to be fairly new as well.

I welcome and encourage you to come see, smell and drive this gorgeous Bonneville for yourself if you are able. It is one of the finest examples I have seen in recent memory. I am sure it will make its next owner extremely proud to drive it as well.  As I stated before, no 16 year old vehicle is perfect, this is why an in person inspection is encouraged. I try to point out any apparent imperfections that I catch, but everyone analyzes things differently.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.

One of Burt Reynolds' favorite cars could be yours

Fri, Apr 12 2019

LOS ANGELES — One of Burt Reynolds' favorite cars is going up for auction in June along with some of his cowboy boots, hats, sports jackets and other items from his estate, Julien's Auctions said on Friday. The two-day auction in Beverly Hills, authorized by the actor's family, comes almost a year after the death at age 82 of the charming star who was one of Hollywood's favorite actors. The highlight of the auction is a 1979 Pontiac Trans Am car that Reynolds used on photo shoots and drove on the Bandit Run cross country rally, which re-enacts the journey at the center of his 1977 film "Smokey and the Bandit." The car, which Reynolds co-owned with his business partner Gene Kennedy, is expected to fetch up to $500,000 at auction, Julien's said in a statement. Two pairs of leather cowboy boots — one red and one yellow — are also offered for sale with estimates ranging from $800 to $2,000 a pair, along with two cowboy hats. Reynolds started out as a football player at Florida State University (FSU) before injuries suffered in a car crash wrecked his hopes of a professional career. But his attachment to FSU remained strong. The auction includes several custom or personalized FSU baseball, basketball and varsity jackets. Other highlights include an oil on canvas painting of the actor's favorite horse titled "Cartouche," which carries an estimate of $20,000 - $30,000. Other art works, furniture and dozens of personal items are also being offered for sale. The auction will take place in Beverly Hills on June 15 and 16, and will be preceded by a public exhibition of some of the items from June 10-14. Reynolds, who was also known for the 1960s television series "Gunsmoke" and the movies "Deliverance" and "Boogie Nights,"" died of a heart attack in Florida in September 2018.

What car brand should come back?

Fri, Apr 7 2017

Congratulations, wishful thinker! You've been granted one wish by the automotive genie or wizard or leprechaun or whoever has been gifted with that magical ability. You get to pick one expired, retired or fired automotive brand and resurrect it from its heavenly peace! But which one? That's a tough decision and not one to be made lightly. As we know from car history, the landscape is littered with failed brands that just didn't have what it took to cut it in the dog-eat-dog world of vehicle design, engineering and marketing. So many to choose from! Because I am not a car historian, I'll leave it to a real expert to present a complete list of history's automotive misses from which you can choose, if you're a stickler about that sort of thing. And since I'm most familiar with post-World War II cars and brands, that's what I'm going to stick to (although Maxwell, Cord and some others could make strong arguments). So, with the parameters established, let's get started, shall we? Hudson: I admit, I really don't know a lot about Hudson, except that stock car drivers apparently did pretty well with them back in the day, and Paul Newman played one in the first Cars movie. But really, isn't that enough to warrant consideration? Frankly, I think the Paul Newman connection is reason enough. What other actor who drove race cars was cooler? James Dean? Steve McQueen? James Garner? Paul Walker? But, I digress. That's a story for another day. Plymouth: As the scion of a Dodge family (my grandfather had a Dodge truck, and my mom had not one, but two Dodge Darts – the rear-wheel-drive ones with slant sixes in them, not the other one they don't make any more), I tend to think of Plymouth as the "poor man's Dodge." But then you have to consider the many Hemi-powered muscle cars sold under the Plymouth brand, such as the Road Runner, the GTX, the Barracuda, and so on. Was there a more affordable muscle car than Plymouth? When you place it in the context of "affordable muscle," Plymouth makes a pretty strong argument for reanimation. Oldsmobile: When I was a teenager, all the cool kids had Oldsmobile Cutlasses, the downsized ones that came out in 1978. At one point, the Olds Cutlass was the hottest selling car in the land, if you can believe that. Then everybody started buying Honda Civics and Accords and Toyota Corollas and Camrys, and you know the rest. But going back farther, there's the 442 – perhaps Olds' finest hour when it came to muscle cars.
