Concours Rotisserie Restoration On A Rare Gto! on 2040-cars
Collierville, Tennessee, United States
Concours rotisserie restoration on a rare GTO!"Perfection". Not a word we use very often here at Art & Speed. But for this rare and unbelievable 1966 GTO convertible, perfection is the only word to describe it. Arguably one of the finest 1966 GTOs in existence, this rare beauty comes with Pontiac Historical Society (PHS) documentation to support its authenticity. The rotisserie restoration is truly of the highest order. Every nut, every bolt has been refurbished or replaced. The craftsmanship and attention to detail is superior to its original construction back in 1966. With impeccable fit and finish, this GTO stands superior to its competition. Finished in the correct Cameo Ivory with red interior, red pinstripes and red fender liners, this GTO is truly a rare and desirable car. On laser straight sheet metal, the finish is flawless and of the highest show quality. Again, perfection abounds in every way. Every piece of the exterior is perfectly aligned and you cannot help but be drawn in by the precision panel gaps and molding alignment of this car. The attention to detail is simply incomparable. The interior of this GTO also does not disappoint. The stunning red upholstery grabs the senses and will transport you right back to 1966. Straight seam alignment shows the attention to detail. This car has original GM belt buckles along with original style Pontiac floor mats. The dash is wrapped in the correct and beautiful walnut, bringing back the elegance of the day in a very special way. Under the hood is equally pristine. You'll find a beautifully detailed 389ci V8 with 4-barrell carburetor. This car is even powered by a genuine AC Delco battery. Every hose and belt is an original GM part. Every clamp is correct. Every finish is correct. Every square inch is correct...every square inch is perfect. And the undercarriage detail is of equal finish to the every other part of the car. The precise originality of this GTO is complemented by period-correct Hurst wheels riding on redline radial tires. This combination works perfectly with the authentic redline fender liners, a detail that sets this GTO apart. This beautiful GTO is nationally ranked by the International Show Car Association (ISCA), and achieved multiple awards at its first showing in February 2014. As you can see in the pictures, "perfection" truly is the best word for this car. It's our pleasure to offer this rare gem of a car, and it will, without a doubt, be your pleasure to own! About Us

6 car mashups that God never intended
Sat, May 17 2014In the 2000s, the musical mashup genre saw a peak of popularity with releases like The Grey Album from Danger Mouse that mixed The Beatles and Jay-Z. UK artist James Pursey from Carwow decided to take the same concept of shoehorning two disparate things together but applied the concept to cars. Your opinion on the results will vary with your sense of humor. These creations are either some funny pieces of abstract art or absolute monstrosities that prove good design should be left alone. Likely the best of the bunch is the Lambotomic (pictured above), which combines a Lamborghini Miura and an Ariel Atom. Granted, the Ariel is little more than a skeleton to begin with, and the outcome looks like a slightly stretched Atom with the new nose and tail from one of the most beautiful vehicles ever. This could actually work. Though, not all of the mashups are quite so pleasant. The Porschiac WW RS (pictured right) is absolutely disgusting. It combines a Pontiac Aztek, which isn't a beauty queen to start with, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Obviously, the 911 is an iconic shape in autonobolia, but that can't save it from the horror of the Aztek. Pursey fits the its nose, wheel, wing, roll cage and stripes onto the Pontiac. The outcome: A design that will show up in your nightmares. Check out the gallery for the rest of the mashups, including the Humi (a Humvee and a Mini), Aston Smartin (Aston Martin and Smart), Rangerini (Range Rover and Lamborghini Aventador) and the Mazdafenda (Mazda MX-5 Miata and Land Rover Defender). They might not all be beautiful (or even pretty), but it's fun to imagine these oddball creations actually driving down the road.

'We're not a hedge fund': Porsche plans to curtail speculators and flippers
Tue, May 30 2017A sizable number of speculators view cars as an investment. Rare or unusual models are quickly snapped up and either parked for years or flipped for a profit. Cars from automakers like Porsche and Ferrari are more prone than others, and at least some people behind these models are getting a bit tired of it. While it's difficult to police what goes on after you sell a car, Porsche has some plans that might curtail the problem before it starts. Andreas Preuninger, the head of GT road-car development and the man behind the new 911 GT3, spoke to Car and Driver at a recent event. "I personally like to see my cars being used," he said. "That's what we build them for. They are just too good to be left to stand and collect dust." One recent example of this rampant speculation is the 911 R. While the special manual-only model sold for $185,950 when new, used versions were selling for nearly $1.3 million just months after it went on sale. While the car is a masterpiece and an instant classic, a good number will be parked and simply used as art and not the rolling testaments to the man/machine interface they were intended to be. The concern over valuations has become so fierce that some owners are upset that Porsche is offering the new 911 GT3 with a manual transmission, fearing that it may hurt the value of the 911 R. "When I said we're not a hedge fund, I'm talking to those people who are yelling at us for offering the manual transmission similar to the R," Preuninger said. "But if there are people wanting to buy cars like that, then as a company we should try to fulfill that, to meet that demand." It seems Porsche is keeping a close eye on who is flipping cars. Since there is often far more demand than supply with certain models, the German automaker has a name for every car before it's built. Buyers with bad reputations might not even make the wait list.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
