One
look at the car, and you know the brand-new 2004 Pontiac GTO isn't General
Motors business as usual. When word leaked out
that Pontiac--now under the stewardship of another octane-loving visionary, GM
Chairman Bob Lutz--would be unveiling an all-new GTO, some 30 years after the
retirement of the original, the regulars around the MT water cooler
immediately weighed in with predictions. "It'll be about as subtle as a
Jerry Bruckheimer movie," said one. "Probably pretty rough around the
edges," opined another. "Bet it breathes fire," offered a third. That was before a
gleaming 2004 GTO showed up at our Los Angeles HQ--and proved
that our crystal ball had been unplugged all along. Surprise #2: The new GTO
looks nothing like a jukebox on wheels. True, the Yellow Jacket paint scheme on
our test car was bright enough to give George Hamilton a sunburn, but the
bodywork is as clean and sleek as a modern Euro coupe's. This may not be the
most memorable shape behind today's showroom glass, but we applaud Pontiac's
decision to skip the bolt-on body cladding and the shaving-mirror chrome
wheels--indeed, the body is entirely free of "I'm a musclecar"
costume. Even the small rear wing looks appropriate, lending just the right
sporty finish to the tail. In fact, the GTO is so tastefully subdued, it'll
surely disappoint those expecting the Vin Diesel treatment. Yet the muscle is
there for those who appreciate subtlety. Check out the ride height, for
instance. When have you seen a factory General Motors product so rakishly low
to the ground--or sporting such narrow tire-to-body gaps? Part of the explanation,
of course, is that the GTO is no ordinary Pontiac. The car is based on the
Monaro, a popular and athletic rear-drive coupe built by GM subsidiary Holden
in Australia. And, in fact, all GTOs will be assembled Down Under. Starting
this month, Pontiac will import roughly 18,000 annually at an expected base
price of $33,000 (final figures had not yet been announced at press time). Surprise #3: The cabin has
the sporty elegance of a BMW's. Four large analog gauges (wearing faces
color-coordinated with the exterior paint) lie in a large pod behind the wheel;
the dials and much of the interior are trimmed with a classy satin-nickel finish
(as are the drilled pedals). The four-spoke steering wheel (with integrated
audio controls) feels good in your hands and is infinitely adjustable for tilt
and telescope--something we've been nagging GM to do for years. The center
stack houses straightforward climate controls and that Blaupunkt audio
system--a 200-watt, 10-speaker affair with in-dash six-disc CD changer. There's
not a blob of bling-bling marring the cool, businesslike ambiance. Your $500
aluminum attache case will look right at home here.
This car is in great shape. Just look at the pictures and judge for yourself. The vehicle is mechanically sound and the interior looks nice. The engine sounds great, it handles and drives superbly and has no problem developing high speeds. Car runs straight as an arrow and tires do not pull in any direction. It has some wear on the body, front bumper mainly and gas lit is missing, but other than that it seams to be in great shape. The car can be exported, transferred and registered in any state.

'67 Chevy Corvair convertible vs. '86 Pontiac Fiero in cult classic showdown
Fri, 22 Aug 2014Every few a decades, the folks running General Motors lose their minds briefly try to market a car that public doesn't see coming and often aren't ready for. In the '60s there was the rear-engine, air-cooled Chevrolet Corvair, then the mid-engine Pontiac Fiero in the '80s and the completely bizarre Chevy SSR in the 2000s. What all of these had in common was that they bucked the trend for American models of their era, for better or worse. The latest episode of Generation Gap tasked the hosts with finding two cult classic vehicles to choose between; they came come up with two of these quirky products from The General.
On the classic side, there's a 1967 Chevy Corvair Monza convertible. Being from later in the production run, it wears slightly more aerodynamic styling than the earlier, boxier examples. Hanging out back is an air-cooled, 2.7-liter flat-six pumping out a robust 95 horsepower. In the other corner is the somewhat more modern 1986 Pontiac Fiero SE with a mid-mounted, 2.5-liter "Iron Duke" four-cylinder, an engine nearly ubiquitous in GM cars of the '80s.
Judging by when they were new, the Corvair was far more successful than the Fiero with over 1.8 million sold. Of course, Ralph Nader's book Unsafe at Any Speed kind of poisoned the well, even if the poor safety reputation wasn't entirely deserved. The Fiero on the other hand only lasted for a few model years before shuffling off, but it eventually got its own performance boost with the V6 version and rather attractive GT models. Check them both out in the video and tell us in Comments which you want in your garage.
Junkyard Gem: 1984 Pontiac Fiero with supercharged 3800 V6 swap
Tue, Dec 31 2019Like the Corvair, the Vega, and the Citation, the Pontiac Fiero was a very innovative machine that ended up causing General Motors more headaches than happiness, and Fiero aficionados and naysayers continue to beat each other with tire irons (figuratively speaking, I hope) to this day. The General has often proved willing to take the occasional big gamble and huge GM successes in engineering prowess (including the first overhead-valve V8 engine for the masses and the first real-world-usable true automatic transmission) and marketing brilliance (e.g., the Pontiac GTO and related John DeLorean home runs) meant that the idea of a mid-engined sporty economy car (or economical sports car) got a shot from the suits on the 14th floor. Sadly, the Fiero ended up being the marketplace victim of too many issues to get into here, and The General pulled the plug immediately after the 1988-model-year suspension redesign that made the Fiero the sports car it should have been all along. But what if the plastic Pontiac had never suffered from the misery of the gnashy, pokey Iron Duke engine and had been built from the start with a screaming supercharged V6 making way better than 200 horsepower? The final owner of today's Junkyard Gem sought to make that very Fiero, by dropping in one of the many supercharged 3.8-liter V6s installed in 1990s and 2000s GM factory hot rods. The first Fieros came out in 1983 for model year 1984, and the only engine available that year was the Iron Duke 2.5-liter four-cylinder, which generated its 92 horsepower with the full-throated song of a Soviet tractor stuck in the freezing mud of a Polish sugar-beet field. The 2M4 badging stood for "two seats, mid-engine, four cylinders," just as the numbers in the Oldsmobile 4-4-2 once represented "four carburetor barrels, four-speed manual transmission, dual exhaust." This car is a top-trim-level SE model, which listed for $9,599 (about $24,200 today). The no-frills Fiero cost just $7,999 that year, making these cars far cheaper than the only other reasonably affordable new mid-engined car Americans could buy at that time: the $13,990 Bertone (aka Fiat) X1/9. The Toyota MR2 appeared in North America as a 1985 model with a base price of $10,999 and promptly siphoned off the car-buying cash from a bunch of potential Fiero shoppers.
This 1988 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 pace car could be yours
Fri, Jan 29 2021Hopefully, the fans of GM's W-body '80s/'90s intermediates can forgive us, but we had pretty much forgotten — or had never really known — that one of the ways that era's Pontiac Grand Prix bathed itself in glory was by serving as the pace car for the Daytona 500. In fact, the Grand Prix paced NASCAR's marquee race every year from 1988 to 1992, and again in 1997, 1998, 2000 and 2003. That first year, 1988, the Grand Prix was all-new, making its debut on the W-body platform. It was also Motor Trend's car of the year. The 1988 Daytona 500 marked the 17th year in a row that a Pontiac was chosen to set the pace but the first time a front-wheel-drive car was so honored. The '88 Grand Prix followed a spate of Pontiac Trans Ams. This '88 Grand Prix, for sale right now on eBay Motors, is presented as an actual pace car, although fans could order a complete set of pace car decals for their very own GP. The pace car is based on that year's top-spec Grand Prix, the SE. In place of the standard car's 2.8-liter V6, however, the pace car uses a modified 3.1-liter V6, which is hooked to a five-speed manual transmission. This Grand Prix is otherwise largely standard fare excepting the roof-mounted light bar, the switches for which are located next to the radio. The mechanical odometer tucked into the digital instrument cluster shows just over 5,000 miles, and presumably, not all of them were acquired on the high-banked oval. With four days to go in the auction, bidding sits at $4,000 with the reserve unmet. Although the reserve is unknown, one clue is that this Grand Prix had been listed by a classic-car dealership in Pennsylvania for $18,500. Besides the debut of the W-body Grand Prix pace car, the 1988 race is also notable for its final lap: Bobby Allison held off his son, Davey Allison, to take the checkered flag, with the father-son duo enjoying a 1-2 finish. Now, who wants to re-live those Grand Prix glory days? Get on your Pontiac and ride!  This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
