1971 PONTIAC GT-37 Pontiac was trying to compete with risinginsurance costs and higher car prices when they came up with the GT-37. This wasfor the most part what Pontiac was trying to achieve when it came up with TheJudge. But the GTO Judge still carried a price tag and high insurance premiums.So in 1970, Pontiac engineers took a base T-37 and added performance goods fromthe GTO for their new GT-37 option. These performance options included a base350 engine all the way up to the 455 HO engines. Rally II wheels without trimrings, 70 series white letter tires, dual exhaust with rear valance cutouts anddual exhaust tips, dual sport painted mirrors with LH remote, hood pins.Optional stripes borrowed from the GTO and all of the performance optionsavailable. But to keep the price low which was the desired goal. GT-37 base carshad no carpet (rubber mat), no power options, no floor insulation, void of sometrim including the Pontiac emblem in the grille and only one coat hook. Top itoff GT-37 came with bench seats only. Of course you could option a GT-37 out ifone desired. After a short run in 1970 Pontiac continued the GT-37 for 1971 andended the model year with a little over 5800 units sold before it wasdiscontinued. 1971 1/2 models now included a specific reflective stripesincluded in the option list and the GTO borrowed stripes were no longeravailable. Some car magazine testing at the time listed as the GT-37 whenordered with the 455 HO 4 speed where some of the fastest cars as they were voidof a lot of weight due to it's stripped down options.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners
Fri, 28 Oct 2011This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The 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.
