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.

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?

GM isn't liable for punitive damages in ignition switch cases

Wed, Nov 20 2019

NEW YORK — A federal appeals court said General Motors is not liable for punitive damages over accidents that occurred after its 2009 bankruptcy and involved vehicles it produced earlier, including vehicles with faulty ignition switches. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said on Tuesday that the automaker did not agree to contractually assume liability for punitive damages as part of its federally-backed Chapter 11 reorganization. GM filed for bankruptcy in June 2009, and its best assets were transferred to a new Detroit-based company with the same name. The other assets and many liabilities stayed with "Old GM," which is also known as Motors Liquidation Co. Tuesday's 3-0 decision may help GM reduce its ultimate exposure in nationwide litigation over defective ignition switches in several Chevrolet, Pontiac and Saturn models. It is also a defeat for drivers involved in post-bankruptcy accidents, including those who collided with older GM vehicles driven by others, as well as their law firms. The ignition switch defect could cause engine stalls and keep airbags from deploying, and has been linked to 124 deaths. A lawyer for the drivers and their law firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment. GM had no comment. Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said GM's agreement to acquire assets "free and clear" of most liabilities excused it from punitive damages claims for Old GM's conduct. He also noted that the judge who oversaw the bankruptcy concluded that the new company could not be liable for claims that the "deeply insolvent" Old GM would never have paid. The decision upheld a May 2018 ruling by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan, who oversees the ignition switch litigation. Drivers have sought a variety of damages in that litigation, including for declining resale values. GM has recalled more than 2.6 million vehicles since 2014 over ignition switch problems. It has also paid more than $2.6 billion in related penalties and settlements, including $900 million to settle a U.S. Department of Justice criminal case. The case is In re: Motors Liquidation Co, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 18-1940. Government/Legal Chevrolet Pontiac Saturn Safety gm ignition switch
