WINTER SPECIAL... tried selling this car during the summer and went unsold. Had a few offers for over $12,000 back in June and I passed them up. Since then I have had about three or four offers during Aug and Sept for $10,000 and passed them up too. Well now its November and the car isn't sold. My loss is your gain. RESERVE IS SET AT $10,000. Seriously folks this is a freakin steal. Best deal you've seen all year... i can almost guarantee that.
Up for auction is my 1999 Pontiac TransAm Firehawk. Its a black convertible with tan leather and a manual 6 speed transmission. Car has pretty low milage of 74,500. Not too many Firehawk convertible's out there, pretty rare car. This car just had $1000 worth of bodywork done to it. Make no mistake it did NOT need it but i like having my stuff super clean. Three or four door dings were taken out, along with a rock chip on the hood (hood ended up getting completely re-painted) and some rub marks on the rear fascia were removed. I'm saying this car has show room paint because it does.... swirl marks completely gone. Completely new repainted hood. You will have to see the car to believe how good the black paint looks. It was a california car its whole life and had an easy salt-free life. Still has a California title as I drove the car back from California last year and has been sitting ever since. Very clean car, runs and drives great. Engine: 100% factory; Starts right up; runs like new with only the SLP lid mod on the air intake SLP options: Auburn Performance Differential Exterior: Paint is flawless; new bodywork just completed, not a single swirl mark on the car... immaculate... seriously... Wheels/tires: Tires will need to be replaced within the next 20,00 im guessing Sound: Aftermarket sound system with a custom made subwoofer box that doesn't take up trunk space and allows convertible top to close. Two amps: Boss 250watt for the two 6.5" kicker subs; 1600w 4-channel amp for the two JL Audio component speakers(very nice) up front and the two massive audio speakers(slim fit for the convertible mechanism) in the rear Interior: Leather is great, clean, visors need replaced as the cardboard inside them and worn Make sure you watch the youtube video of it. Ebay won't let you directly paste the link anymore so you will have to get on youtube and search "1999 Pontiac Firehawk Convertible startup / interior / walk around" copy and paste that title... It should be the first link that pops up and my user ID is sgilbertt. I did a walk-around and a startup of the car worth watching. That pretty much sums it all up! The pictures don't do the car justice. Come see it and test drive it if you like. Email me or call me at 217-251-Zero1Eight1 |

Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?
Fri, May 27 2016When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

The last Pontiac Fiero sold for $90,000 at auction
Thu, Dec 3 2020On August 16, 1988 the last Pontiac Fiero, a red GT model, rolled off the assembly line at GM's Pontiac Assembly plant located in Pontiac, Michigan. It wasn't just the final Fiero, but the final car to be built at that site. The car was raffled off to one of 1,400 plant employees that would soon have to find jobs elsewhere. Whoever that employee was, they remained faithful to the Fiero and kept it in mint condition for 32 years. Last month, it was finally time to move on. It crossed the block at GAA Auctions in Greensboro, North Carolina where it sold for an astounding $90,000. According to the auction house, that's a new world record. The price no doubt reflected the car's place in history as the last example of GM's 1980s mid-engined sports car. However, it was also showroom-new, with just 582 miles clocked on its 2.8-liter V6. 1988 models were also fitted with an upgraded, Lotus-esque suspension produced for just that one year. In addition, this car, serial number 226402, came with its original build sheet, photos from the assembly line, and a collection of news articles and books. It still wore its pre-delivery plastic on the interior and was fully loaded with automatic transmission. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The car's custodian for the past 32 years must be pleased. Bidding started at $25,000 but soon rocketed past the $65,000 reserve. You can see the action starting at the 2:50:13 mark in the video above. The Fiero was symbolic of the 1980s and stood out from the standard GM passenger car fare for its mid-engine layout and plastic body panels. In an era when GM often rebadged cars with minimal differences, the Fiero rode on its own unique chassis. It was positioned as one of the defining products for Pontiac, GM's "excitement" brand, but actual performance never quite lived up to its striking looks. Nevertheless, it garnered a cult following. It's often the basis for (questionable) custom builds mimicking more exotic models like Ferraris and Lamborghinis, thanks to a steel space-frame design that allows body panels to be easily removed. Thankfully, this significant example escaped such a fate and will live on as a reminder of an interesting chapter of automotive history.
Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
