 This car has 2011 rear tires, 2013 front tires, Nitto Invo. New plugs, O2 sensors (all 4), belt and battery. I keep the old plugs with the car so you can see it is running perfectly. New upgraded sway bar links and bushings. The paint is perfect, just a few rock pits in the front bumper/skirt, shines like new. Interior leather is also in like new condition. The original owner upgraded the sound system will better speakers all around and it would seem a subwoofer in the trunk. The subwoofer is gone, but all the wiring is in place, high and low level signal wires, a subwoofer control wire, as well as power wires for an amplifier. A new radio head unit  has been installed, Pioneer Z3 CD DVD GPS 7" touchscreen with built in 40GB hard drive which holds your favorite music ripped from each CD you play. Last thing is the headlights are now HID as well as the Fog lights, really lights up the road.

If you do not know this car, the 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO, let me give you what history I know. Released first in '04 as a joint effort between GM and Holden of Australia, a big name in road racing of sport coupes there, it was to bring a muscle car to compete with the Mustang. It was only made for these three years, but was planned to move onto the G6 platform when the recession hit and Pontiac was gone. In '04 it was fitted with the LS1 Corvette engine.

In 2005 the car was upgraded to the LS2 engine, more displacement and more horsepower. Unfortunately the car was a bit over powered, for the 2005-6 have a problem in the 'Launch' and the rear wheels will have a tendency to jutter, jump, shudder however you want to describe it. SO, if you are looking at other 2005-6 production years, look for some resolution having been install, most owners did nothing it seems. There are a couple of routes to attempt a fix, I have heard that heavier axles works, but the solution on this car does work. The decreases spring throw, -1.5", and the +2 spring rating increase combined with Koni Shocks not only makes a smooth wheel spinning launch, makes the  car handle really flat. Of course the 10.5" wide rims and tires help that out  also.

The other thing to look for in these cars is the seat corners, both front and back, that face the exterior of the car. I do not know what Holden used to stitch these seats together, but it does not do well with UV light. In most examples of this car, these seams threads have broken open, but not on this car, all the seats are perfect except the rub on the drivers waist bolster from getting in and out of the car. Also the headliners sometimes come unattached from heat, but again, not this car. From the CarFAX, It spent its life in North Carolina, a single owner, and from the looks of it, in a garage. The owner may have been in the Armed Services, for there are periods on the CarFAX where the car had no miles put on it. One thing is for sure, it was pampered.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP

Sun, Nov 28 2021

John DeLorean began his career working on Packard's Ultramatic Twin transmission, but he made his greatest mark on the automotive industry during his 1956-1969 tenure at GM's Pontiac Division. There, he helped develop the first production car engine with a quiet timing belt instead of a noisy chain, among other engineering feats, but his real fame came from the development of two money-printing models based more on marketing than machinery: the GTO and the Grand Prix. While the GTO gets all the attention now, the Grand Prix set the standard for the big-selling personal luxury coupes that sold like mad for decades to come. Today's Junkyard Gem is an example of the most powerful Grand Prix available at the turn of the century, found in a Denver-area self-service yard during the summer. The Grand Prix got front-wheel-drive for 1988 and a sedan version for 1990, but then something very beneficial happened in the 1997 model year: supercharging! Various flavors of the venerable 3.8-liter Buick V6 engine (itself based on the early-1960s Buick 215 V8 and thus cousin to the Rover V8) received Eaton blowers, starting in the 1992 model year. The Grand Prix didn't get its introduction to forced induction until the 1997 model year, but it kept the boosted option until the final Grand Prix rolled off the line in 2008 (the final Pontiac followed within a couple of years). This one made 240 horsepower, making it King of Grand Prix engines until the 2005 model year (when the GXP and its 303-horse V8 engine showed up). The very last year for a Grand Prix with a manual transmission was 1993 (there had been a three-pedal Grand Prix drought from 1973 through 1988, just to put things in perspective), so this car has the mandatory four-speed automatic. The Grand Prix lived on GM's W platform for its last two decades, making it sibling to the Impala, Regal, and Intrigue in 2001. Until the 2004 model year, every W-Body Grand Prix was built at Fairfax Assembly in Kansas City (no, theĀ other Kansas City). Production of the final generation of Grand Prix took place in Ontario. It seems fitting that this car's final pre-crusher parking spot would be between two other GM products of the same era: a Monte Carlo and a Vibe.
