2009 Pontiac G8 Gxp Sedan 4-door Corvette Camaro 6.2l Motor on 2040-cars
Marlton, New Jersey, United States
This is something I never thought I would have to do, sell my beloved GXP. This is used as my daily driver and my company is looking to change my auto reimbursement plan and thus it will not be financially smart for me to keep the car. I need to move into something that will return 30-35 mpg, although this GXP does get a solid 19mpg on the highway, it's not the best choice when looking for fuel efficiency. That is the only reason I am selling the car, and it's taken me nearly a month to finally decided to make this post putting it up for sale. Like I said this is my daily driver, but I have the luxury of working from home, so this car has never been driven in any snow or bad winter weather. This daily driver has won trophies at shows against other garage queen cars. It's adult owned, and adult cared for and I am a "Car Guy", and also own a Corvette Z06, thus my license plate and I am a member of BMWCCA. The car is protected with Zymol and Meguiar's Professional products on a regular basis. The GXP is garage kept and has some minor mods that are easily reversed if desired. I love the Holden aspect of these cars, thus I have debadged the Pontiac emblems and replaced them with Holden badges wherever possible. #684 of the 1,829 produced 1 of 37 as optioned with White Hot exterior, Onyx and Red Interior, Six Speed Manual, and Sunroof. At present it shows 48,300 miles on the odometer and I will be looking to find alternate transportation in order to keep the GXP under 50,000 miles. The car is located in Burlington County, New Jersey; just outside of Philadelphia, PA. It is still under the GMPP, General Motors Protection Plan Warranty, the best one available from GM. The GMPP is valid until June 15, 2015 or 100,000 miles and carries a $100 deductible. This can be transferred to the new owner if they desire. On Star Navigation is current and paid through June of 2014. I am the second owner of the car. The original owner bought the car in Arkansas and put 8,100 miles on the car in three years of ownership. I bought the car as a Certified Pre Owned from a Cadillac dealership outside of Detroit, MI. I bought the car sight unseen, bought a one way plane ticket to Detroit and drove the car home to New Jersey. It continues to be serviced at a local former Pontiac dealership. It receives a Mobil 1 oil change every 5,000 miles. I can provide all the service notes, as provided by my service advisor, if requested. I can provide his contact information if you wish to speak with him about the car. Now onto the description of what has been done to the car. -SUMMER TIRE/WHEEL COMBO Michelin Pilot Super Sport Tires installed on 19" OEM GXP Wheels, NEW June 2013 - Holden center caps are installed on the GXP wheel. -WINTER TIRE/WHEEL COMBO Hankook i-Cept Winter Tires on 18" Beyern (BMW spec) Black Wheels, NEW Oct. 2012 -Roto Fab Cold Air Intake -160 Degree Thermostat -East Coast Supercharging Tune -Stop Tech Street Performance Pads -Xenon/HID 5000k 35 watt Headlights -Xenon/HID 3000k 25 watt Fog Lights -3m Clear Bra installed on the hood, fenders, bumper, mirrors, headlights and fog lights -Home Link Garage Door Opener in sun visor -OEM Pontiac Trunk Liner -Weather Tech front and rear floor liners -OEM carpeted black floor mats -Redline Goods Red/Black leather center arm rest cover and shifter boot (shifter boot never installed) -Pro Clip G8 Specific mount for iPhone -Hardwired Aux Connection for iPhone 4/5 for charging and audio playback -Blend Mount Valentine One Mirror Mount and Mirror power connection -Window Tint, non-metallic, 20% on the rear, 35% on the sides, and 80% on the windshield. I use this for UV protection, you can not tell the windshield is even tinted, and yes this is illegal in NJ, but I have never been stopped. See the photos below from inside the car looking out to see the tint. -Black sealed front license plate frame -Removed the "PONTIAC" emblems from the trunk -Removed the Pontiac dart from the trunk and replaced it with a Holden Loin emblem -Red GXP Emblem Overlays -Red GXP Brake Caliper Covers by MGP -Original owner installed GM Part - Chrome Fuel Door Cover -Removed the GM "Chicklet" emblem and replaced with Jake Skull (Corvette Racing mascot) -LS3 Corvette Fuel Rail Covers -Removed the front Pontiac arrow, replaced with custom Holden arrow -Block It Dustop Indoor/Outdoor car cover Included will be all the OEM parts that were removed, air intake, engine cover, headlights, emblems, floor mats. Plus I have an unpainted OEM fuel door cover, if you wish to replace the chrome one. I have all documentation that came with the vehicle when sold as new, including Pontiac full line brochure window sticker, and owner's manual. Three sets of keys, one original flip key, one original (never used) fixed key fob, and a brand new uncut flip key fob. I have never run this car down the drag strip, it did see one track day at Pocono North Course. I am a driving instructor for Del-Val Miata and I brought the GXP to the road course to see what it could do. It preformed flawlessly and all preventative maintenance was preformed before and after the event, with no issues. The car obviously has all of the OEM options, such as Bluetooth, heated seats, auto climate control, 6 disc in dash CD player, etc. The car presently does have a lien on the title and that title is held by US Bank. So the bank will be involved in the transaction and transfer of ownership/title. I understand this will slow down the purchasing process, but I will work with the buyer to make sure it goes smoothly. The asking price is set at $34,500 and I have very little wiggle room on the price due to the lien on the car. Presently on Auto Trader there are 4 manual GXP's for sale within 500 miles of my home. None of them have the onyx/red interior or a warranty. Prices and mileage range from $38,995 to $33,500 and 12,000 to 37,000 miles. So I am right in line with the market, for a fairly stock car with two sets of wheels/tires and GMPP. I have over 70 recent photos of the car, so if you want to see something specific please let me know. Thanks for reading my long description, but I want to be sure to explain everything as best I can for any potential buyer. If I am this detailed about my for sale listing, just imagine how much detail I give to maintaing the GXP! The car is in excellent condition and I planned to own this for years to come, but it's not going to work out that way. There is no other car available today, that I would rather use as my daily driver, I simply love this car. My Z06 has been driven less than 2,000 miles since I have owned the GXP, it's that much fun to drive. |

This massive 'Knight Rider' KITT model costs over $1,400
Tue, May 18 2021A new model of the famed Pontiac Firebird from the 1980s TV show Knight Rider is here, and it's massive. The shadowy flight into the dangerous world of this subscription-based kit by DeAgostini will result in a car that measures nearly two feet long, cost more than $1,400, and take you over two years to complete. For years, subscription-based model kits have been a tradition for hobbyists in Europe and Asia. Should you sign on, each week you'll receive a package in the mail that includes a few parts for the model and some literature on the subject. Usually there are additional collectibles and accessories, like a display case. The DeAgostini KITT kit, for example, begins with the hood for the first issue. The asymmetric bulged and scooped body panel comes with a several smaller body pieces and a small screwdriver. Issue two comes with the front fascia, KITT's red scanner light, and three of the six driving lights. Issue three gives you a tire, wheel and brake components for one of the four corners. And so it goes. When all is said and done, you'll receive 110 such packages over a span of so many weeks. In other words it'll take two years and one-and-a-half months to complete the black, 1:8 scale Pontiac. There are some discounted prices for the first few issues to get you hooked, but once you get settled in the regular price for each issue is ˆ10.99 ($13.36 USD). Here's a preview the 16-page pamphlet that accompanies the first issue. By the end, you should have a pretty comprehensive compendium of the Knight Rider series as well. The issues are available on newsstands, but subscribers get additional gifts — two 1:43 scale models, one of KITT and one of his nemesis KARR. And for an additional ˆ1.00 per issue, you'll receive an acrylic display case. As for the Knight Industries Two Thousand itself, the car appears to be incredibly detailed. As depicted on the DeAgostini website, the hood, doors, trunk and T-top roof panels all open. The red scanner lights up, the rear license plate rotates for three options, and there even seems to be a watch that commands the model to speak some of KITT's catch phrases. Knight Rider — or Supercar as it was called in Italy — told the episodic story of a former police officer, Michael Knight, who fought crime with his A.I.-powered car. As such, the TV car and the the model have a heavily computerized (by 1980s standards) dashboard and yoke steering wheel.
Junkyard Gem: 1987 Pontiac Firebird
Sat, May 9 2020From 1967 through 2002, the Pontiac Division offered the Firebird, close sibling to the Chevrolet Camaro. By the third generation, which debuted for the 1982 model year, it became more difficult to tell the two F-body cars apart at a glance and the Pontiac-exclusive engines of the earlier years disappeared, but the Firebird still retained its own personality and its own position in the GM marketing hierarchy. I still find the occasional 1982-1992 Camaro as I search car graveyards for interesting stuff, but the corresponding Firebirds have become scarce in recent years. Here's a base-engine-equipped '87, its Bright Red paint (yes, that was the official name for the color) faded by the Colorado sun as it awaits the crusher. Firebird shoppers had their choice of three engines in 1987: A 5.7-liter Chevy V8 (210 hp), a 5.0-liter Chevy V8 (205 hp) and the same 2.8-liter 60° V6 that went into the Fiero and countless front-drive GM sedans (135 hp). This car has the base engine. The third-gen F-body didn't weigh much (3,105 pounds for the '87 with six-banger, about what a 2020 Corolla weighs), so 135 horses was tolerable. Plenty of these cars got T-5 5-speed manual transmissions, but this one got the two-pedal setup. Camaro wheels, of course. Our Friend the Carburetor didn't disappear from new cars until the early 1990s in the United States, though electronic fuel injection had become very commonplace by 1987. Still, GM considered this car's EFI worth a door-handle brag. It's not worth fixing up a mashed six-cylinder third-gen Firebird, so we can see the route this car took to its final parking space.
