Buffalo, New York, United States
You know when you have a cool collector car and you go down the road on a nice warm day and people yell out to you, give you a little honk and give you the thumbs up...well my other cars get that, but let me tell you, this gets the f---in fist in the air with a rebel yell!! I am not exaggerating!! FFF-yeah, with a clenched fist as they see me a mile down the road. This is THE gentleman's muscle car! Here is an investment grade 1969 GTO with the following: Built at the Pontiac plant on the 3rd week of May 1969. Paint Correct code 52 upper and lower matador red Paint, chrome, glass, badging, excellent Endura front bumper, rear chrome bumper excellent Hood lines up nice, opens and closes nice, closes evenly (in pic I didn't have it shut tightly) Doors open and shut as they should Trunk pans and floor pans are 'original' and rust free. Rockers retain the original paint from 1969 Seats, no rips or tears, excellent Carpet, excellent New dash cap, excellent Factory steering wheel, excellent All gauges work, including tachometer Correct original seat belts Door panels like new Fuzzies and rubber seals like new, excellent Courtesy lights work Has AM/FM cassette radio-not original, NO CUTS WERE MADE IN DASH Front and rear Rally II wheels with new centers and trim rings Matching spare and correct 1969 GTO jack in trunk Born as a Matador red GTO!

Its a pain but worth it! Starts, runs, drives and shifts like a new 1969 GTO should!! Everything works, even the emergency brake As a collector, owner of several classics and a car enthusiast I would rate the car overall a 9. Pictures look grainy. I assure you this finish looks like glass! As of today I have had it out 2 times and about an hour- 2 hours each, since the detail. Approximately 25 miles since. Car is capable of driving across the country without issue, but who in their right mind would do such a thing?? Simply immaculate!! 1)1969 Matador Red GTO; Barrett-Jackson (I know; here we go) had one sold with a cordova top 1-2 years ago for $52,800 (date code correct engine) 2)1969 Matador Red GTO sold from a dealer in Ohio (red interior) ask $49,995, I believe sold for around $45,000 3)1969 Matador red GTO asking $49,983 on Hemmings (a 3 speed) ALL great cars, but your chance to get it for less right here. As of July 2014, Nada.com book value is AVG $39,360 HIGH $68,040 with 4 speed and rally wheels option As of July 2014 hagerty.com book value is #2 condition $52,140 (with 4 speed), #1 condition $70,180. I believe $50k is more of a reasonable estimate comparing to other cars in the current market. This car is certainly WAY above average condition. COME OUT AND SEE!!! Sorry no joy rides. Serious only!! I currently have $50,000 agreed value insurance coverage from Hagerty for only $300 a year!! I may have missed something so I may 'add' a revision. Once a bid is placed, a revision can only be added, so you will see exactly what is added. Any questions, just ask. I reserve the right to sell locally. I will NOT stop the auction once reserve is met, regardless. I strongly suggest you see this in person...the cliche' of all cliche's, pictures do it no justice. IT is so true!! MUST SEE in person. It will blow you away!!! To be listed only once, so if you miss out, you can contact me post auction. ((I will NOT send a second chance offer, however I may contact you after the auction ends)) If you are the winning bidder and you fly or drive to view the GTO 'BEFORE' it leaves my possession, I will give you your deposit back if your are totally unhappy!!

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
Junkyard Gem: 1989 Pontiac Sunbird SE Coupe
Sat, Jun 11 2022General Motors built the fantastically successful J-Body cars starting at the dawn of the 1980s and continuing well into our current century, on five continents. The Pontiac Division's version of the J started out being called the J2000 and the 2000, then got the Sunbird name originally used on the Pontiac-ized Chevy Monza starting in 1983. Here's a once-slick-looking 1989 Sunbird SE Coupe, found at a Minneapolis-area boneyard way back in 2016. The best-known of all the J-Body cars, here, was the Chevrolet Cavalier, but Pontiac far outdid even the most blinged-up Cavalier Z24 when it came to elaborate taillights. Because this is Minnesota, the car is a patchwork of various layers of junkyard-obtained rusty body parts. One fender has TURBO badges from a Sunbird GT. The other side has the correct engine badges for this model. That engine is a 2.0-liter, single-overhead-cam straight-four from an engine family originally developed for the Opel Kadett D. This one was rated at 96 horsepower when new. This one has the automatic transmission, so it wouldn't have been very much fun to drive. Check out that cool parking brake handle, though! And, hey, is that a full can of Colorado Cool-Aid in the foot well? You'd think a proper Minnesota Pontiac would at least be full of Grain Belt cans. It appears that Higley Ford in Windom, Minn., had this car on the lot at some point. Windom is closer to Sioux Falls than to Minneapolis. This final mileage total looks good for a car living in Tinworm Country. Pontiac built this generation of Sunbird from the 1988 through 1994 model years, though it was really just a facelift of the first-generation cars. Starting in 1995, the Pontiac J-Body became the Sunfire, and production continued until the J platform itself got the axe in 2005. This content is hosted by a third party.

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.
