Baltimore, Maryland, United States
455 Horsepower 2001 Trans-Am WS6 Heavily Modified With Paperwork and Custom Dyno Tune. For sale today is an extremely clean, heavily modified 2001 WS6 Trans Am. This car only has about 7-13k miles on it since its complete drive train overhaul from July of 2012 until January of 2013. Since then its also had alot of tasteful modifications which will be listed below. The motor has a nice cam set-up that's been on the car for about 13k miles, at which point the head gaskets, seals, timing chains and so on were replaced. The Transmission, clutch, rear differential and gears were replaced at 77k miles by Maryland Performance Center in Fredrick Maryland from 7/12 until around 1/13, where everything else on the car was inspected as well. The exhaust was modified from front to back and fitted with custom 02 fittings so that it still passes emissions. Also has an electronic cut out for those who like it a little louder with american racing headers, custom catted Y pipe and Magnaflow exhaust. MPC also gave the car a custom dyno tune, at which point the car was recorded putting down 455hp at the crank and 390hp at the rear wheels. All in all the drive train from front to back only has 13k miles (motor) and around 8k miles on the transmission, clutch, and rear end. The sound system in it is amazing, with a custom Kenwood head unit as well as aftermarket speakers, MTX sub and JL Audio amps to give it crisp clean sound.

As you can see, alot of time and money has been poured into this car. Its not easy to find a clean F body with reasonable mileage on it, but this car has less that 13,000 miles on the suspension and complete drive-train from front to back. My asking price is what they go for stock, without over $11,000 in parts that are into this car and close to another $5,000 easily in labor to have it all installed. I have you tube videos as well with a walk-around of the car and the exhaust. The first video of the walk around has the cut-out for the exhaust open, and the second video from the back of the car has the cut out closed and running through the dual magnaflows. The cut-out switch is located in the ash tray hidden from plain sight and can be open or closed while stopped or driving with the flip of the switch. The first video also shows the hazards on so you can see the lights switching in the front from clear to orange. Videos Below Walk around...cutout open youtube.com/watch?v=3vfkN90qDSo Exhaust from rear with cutout closed youtube.com/watch?v=llPYrnZ9k_c&list=UUf-xshr8LBOSlEAVF6gDG3g&feature=c4-overview All in all, the car is extremely clean and shows how well its been taken care of. This is a true coded WS6, check the pictures for the vin and door codes. The car runs great and sounds absolutely wicked. It does not have any body damage at all and the interior is as clean as it looks. It doesnt have the typical door panel cracks or interior cracks that most come with and it also doesnt have any of the typical "door sag" that the F-bodys are know for having because of the weak fiberglass where the door hinge mounts to the door. The drives side door had a weakspot on the bottom mount from the fiberglass drying out a few years ago so it was replaced with a stronger newer version offered by GM, there are plenty of threads about this all over F-body forums and most people try slopping fiberglass all over it to fix it but this was done the right way by replacing the defective unit. A video is listed below to help illustrate the issue F body Fiberglass door issue (mine was replaced OEM) youtube.com/watch?v=Nvi7y-R0owg Like I said, most people attempt to re-fiberglass the themselves to save the money but the only way to ensure the issue is resolved is to replace the unit professionally. This car was never a car that anyone cut costs on, as seen above. The car runs fantastic, it has no check engine lights or warning signs, oil pressure and temperature are absolutely perfect and it can be driven wherever you want to take it. The paint is amazing for its age and even though its cloudy in the pics, you can still see the blue-purple tint it has when the light hits it. Its got tons of GO-FAST goodies but was never tracked or raced. The car is in really good condition for being a 13 year old car. Nothing on this car was half assed or back yard mechanic'd. The most recent mod was the Bilstein Shocks all around with an alignment. The interior like I said is in great shape with no rips in the seats or holes in the carpet. Firestone tires on factory WS6 chromes that shine nice and have a touch of rash on the lip but they are in great shape. The clutch is also adjustable so it can be set to your liking or driving style. The car also has a CLEAR TITLE registered in MD which is signed by the previous owner and can be transferred to the new owner upon payment with a bill of sale as well. I bought the car with hopes of taking it with me to my new home but my house failed inspection and I have to fork out money on a septic system and heating units before I can close on it. I have Dyno sheets from Maryland Performance in Fredrick as well as receipts for the Transmission, Clutch, Flywheel, Gears, Diff cover, 02 relocation so on and so fourth. Every thing else thats listed can be found quite easily with part numbers to see that the costs on this car are in fact very, very real. Please consider that the upgrades on this car are pretty close to what im asking just by themselves, WITHOUT LABOR!! This is a modified F-Body Trans Am WS6 thats pretty much only got 13k miles on everything but the body, which only has 87k on it itself. The t-tops do not leak and it has zero rust issues. Also has tinted glass t-tops and windows. Any questions feel free to email me at threewheeler@live.com or you can reach me via ebay message.

GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
Junkyard Gem: 1989 Pontiac 6000 STE AWD
Sun, Aug 1 2021During the middle to late 1980s, General Motors made a big push to grab back some of the sales swiped by makers of European luxury machinery during the previous decade. Around the top of the prestige pyramid, there was the Turin/Hamtramck-built Cadillac Allante taking aim at the Mercedes-Benz 560SEC and the super high-tech Buick Reatta trying to seduce away BMW and Jaguar shoppers; even the Riviera offered a futuristic touchscreen computer sorely lacking in anything out of Stuttgart or Bavaria. The General had a plan to take on the smaller German sporty sedans, too, and Pontiac of the "We Build Excitement" era offered a midsize sedan packed with modern hardware at a great price: the 6000 STE. Here's one of the rarest 6000 STEs of them all, an all-wheel-drive-equipped '89 found in a Denver-area yard last week. Any 6000 STE is extremely hard to find today; when I wrote about a front-wheel-drive 1987 6000 STE back in 2018, desperate owners of these cars filled my inbox with requests — sometimes demands — for parts that continue to this day. Many of them pleaded with me to help them find an all-wheel-drive version, and now I have managed to find one at Colorado Auto & Parts in Englewood, just south of Denver (in fact, the same yard at which I shot the '87). You may recall CAP as the old-school yard whose owners built the amazing airplane-engined 1939 Plymouth pickup a few years back. The all-wheel-drive system on the 6000 STE was introduced for the 1988 model year, and it became standard equipment on the 1989 STE. At this time, the automotive industry had taken note of the success of the idiot-proof all-wheel-drive systems offered by AMC and Audi/Volkswagen; Toyota began selling Americans all-wheel-drive Camrys, Celicas, and Corollas, while Ford offered the Tempo and Topaz with optional AWD and Subaru was just beginning to make the switch from manually-selected four-wheel-drive to genuine all-wheel-drive around that time (it took a few more years for everyone to standardize on the 4WD/AWD terminology we use today, though). The 6000 STE AWD was intended to compete with such all-wheel-drive-equipped sedans as the Audi 80 ($23,610), Audi 90 ($28,840), and BMW 325iX ($30,750); its $22,599 price tag (about $50,700 in 2021 dollars) certainly made it seem like a bargain compared to those cars. In addition to the all-wheel-drive system, 1989 6000 STE owners got a digital instrument panel and more switches and buttons than the Space Shuttle.
