1998 Pontiac Grand Prix Gtp Coupe 2-door 3.8l on 2040-cars
Mount Vernon, New York, United States
Hello, thanks for looking at the 1998 Grand Prix GTP coupe I am listing. I am selling this vehicle for my father, and if you have any questions he is more than willing to answer them! First off, all the great things about this car - It is low mileage at just 124k miles. Clean and clear title. Recently driven from Oregon to New York where the car is currently located. Averaged 29mpg on that trip! It has new front tires with less than 1k miles on them, recharged AC system that blows very cold, and a brand new radiator less than a month old that comes with a 12 month warranty. Spark plugs, wires and ignition coils replaced 10k miles ago as well as all new hoses. Front brake pads replaced then as well. Very nice aftermarket tail lights. Nice comfortable Cloth interior, Sony CD player. All windows are clear, rear and side windows are tinted. Glossy black paint that shines up very nice after a wash. It's not perfect, but it's very nice! Car cruises at about 1900rpm at 70mph. The 3.8L Supercharged V6 is a very solid reliable and powerful engine! If you put your foot down it pulls hard and the supercharger provides that infamous whine. Custom K&N intake to really help the engine breathe. Exhaust has a nice low rumble at idle and purrs while cruising. Passed smog in CA and is registered until September 2014. Interior is black and gray. Seats could use a cleaning, but overall they are in good condition. Power windows, locks, cruise control all work perfectly. This car is equipped with the digital car info system and boost gauge and it works great. Driver seat is power with lumbar support. As far as any defects, the dash cover is cracked in the usual spot and the driver side door speaker is intermittent (comes with replacement speakers). That's pretty much it! This is a car that has been babied by my Father and he hates to part with it. Buyer is responsible for arranging shipment if required. Reserve is set at $3,250, please verify you have funds before bidding. Cashiers check or personal check after it clears are the accepted forms of payment. Thanks for looking! |

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
Burt Reynolds' personal 1977 Trans-Am from Smokey And The Bandit for sale
Fri, Dec 5 2014Smokey and the Bandit is one of those quintessential 1970s car movies with insane premises but tons of fun. After all, the basic plot of the film is about distracting the police to transport cases of Coors beer cross country. While Burt Reynolds receives top billing, the real star is definitely his black Pontiac Trans-Am. Now, there's a chance to posses one of these muscle machines actually owned by Reynolds, and it's already proving quite popular. The car is a '77 Trans-Am with the famous, gold screaming chicken proudly on the hood. However, while this is a piece of Reynolds memorabilia, it's not really part of cinematic history. According to the listing, this example was used as a promotional vehicle and then given to Reynolds with a title showing him as a previous owner for proof. Still, there's 400-cubic-inch (6.55-liter) V8 under the hood with a 4-barrel carburetor and an automatic transmission. A plaque inside the driver's door proclaims the car as a "1977 Pontiac Trans Am Owned By Burt Reynolds," and there's a Bandit logo on the door. This is just one lot of Julien Auction's sale of Reynolds memorabilia on December 11 and 12 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. Bidding is already running online, and the Trans-Am is up to $130,000, as of this writing. For the true Reynolds fanatic, the auction also lists the motorized stagecoach from his wedding to Loni Anderson. It rides built on an International Harvester Scout frame with an interior reportedly from Dolly Parton.
