Year:2006 Mileage:40096 Color: body panels hydroformed
Location:

Sacramento, California, United States

Sacramento, California, United States

Carmax has offered me $7000.00 for this car, and in 72 hours I will be selling this car to them unless someone offers more. You are bidding on a 2006 Pontiac Solstice in concept colors. The Pontiac Solstice was first seen at the 2002 Auto Show and the brought to life in 2006, designed by Bob Lutz, the same man who designed the BMW 3 series, Dodge Viper and the Plymouth Prowler. The Pontiac Solstice is the only car to have all of its exterior body panels hydroformed, meaning all the curves of the body panels were formed with water. The car is registered in my father's name and has a clean New York state title. Car is paid off with title in hand. The car was just clay bar and waxed for the next owner. As of today it has 40,096 miles on it, Keep in mind it is still driven from day to day, so it may have a couple of hundred more when it is picked up. Less then 40,600 guaranteed. Car also has a 5 speed Manual transmission. I bought the car on April 28 2011 and have had only synthetic oil changes done on the car and performed all routine and needed maintenance. Car is 110% mechanically sound, you can drive it anywhere. I'm also willing to bring it to your mechanic or dealership to have it looked over, if they are local to the Sacramento area. The car is in fantastic shape inside and outside. It is in the concept colors of Grey Steel and two tone leather interior. It has premium 18 inch wheels, 6 CD in dash changer, an XM antenna added to trunk, power windows and power locks. It shows minor scuffs and minor scratches. The gap in between the bumper and the fenders is a little greater because of a parking block mishap, but not really noticeable. The flip out passenger side cup holder is broken and stuck in. The top has a tiny "slit" in it only an inch long, It was patched with a very thin line of clear waterproof sealant. The car has been through many, many cars washes since it was patched with no problems or leaking. The front bumper has scratches underneath it. I parked too close to a parking block and backed up over it. Some scuffs and missing 2 small clips.  The car at one point was also improperly put on a lift and lifted. Leaving small divots on the bottom of each of the front fenders. Afterwards, the passenger side fender was hitting the door seam so there is a small paint chip on the passenger door where it meets the fender. The fender has been put back in place and does not hit the door anymore. The car also has the "ABS" light on, due to the driver side back sensor being "bad/broken". I never replaced it, having a small roadster without abs never bothered me. The keyless entry remotes do not work. A dealership has told me that it needs new remotes. The back passenger side wheel shows some very minor cosmetic damage (please see photos) and the front passenger wheel has very minor scuff. FYI the car has been smoked in, on and off. Seeking $9,000.00, best offers will be considered. The only reason I am selling this car is because I'm moving across the country, if not for that it wouldn't be for sale or for this price. All buyers can arrange to come see the car in person before bidding if they would like. The car is located in the downtown Sacramento area. Winning bidder must pay a $500 deposit within 48 hours and the rest on pick up. Delivery might be able to be arranged, please message me before bidding. I will ship anywhere, as long as the full cost is paid for by the buyer as well as the shipping arrangements made by them as well. Questions call Chris 6465849739

A pair of Mitsubishis, the Mazda CX-30 and electric incentives | Autoblog Podcast #673

Fri, Apr 9 2021

This week's Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski as they debate the merits of the redesigned Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 coupes and whether or not they are distinctive and powerful enough to attract buyers. The duo spends some time discussing ongoing EV and infrastructure legislation before turning their attention to a trio of crossovers. Greg muses about the 2021 Mazda CX-30 before Jeremy talks about the refreshed 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross and completely redesigned Outlander. We get nostalgic as we remember the dearly departed Pontiac GTO before wrapping the podcast up by making one more suggestion to a longtime listener who is shopping for a vehicle to replace her aging Honda Pilot.

GM knew about fatal Chevy ignition problem decade before recall

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Well, this is not good for General Motors. Following a report last week that GM was recalling 778,000 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 compacts over concerns that the ignition could switch out of the "run" position without warning, USA Today reports that the Detroit-based behemoth knew about the issue, which affected 2005 to 2007 Cobalts (the Cobalt shown above and in the gallery is from 2010) and 2007 Pontiac G5s, all the way back in 2004.
The information comes from a deposition in a civil lawsuit against GM, obtained by USA Today, which claims that a GM engineer experienced the issue while the then-new model was undergoing testing. The issue was "solved" when a technical service bulletin was issued in 2005, informing dealers to install a snap-on key cover on the cars of customers who complained about the issue. According to the Cobalt's program engineering manager, Gary Altman, the cover was an "improvement, it was not a fix to the issue."
The case where the depositions were made was from 2010, and involved Brooke Melton, a 29-year-old pediatric nurse in Georgia who was killed on her birthday. At the time, police claimed she was going too fast on a wet, rural road, although it later came out through the black box that her car's ignition had come out of the "run" position at least three seconds before the accident (the max amount of time a black box records before a wreck), disabling her airbags, power steering and anti-lock brakes. According to USA Today, police said Melton was "traveling too fast for the roadway conditions," although it's impossible to know if she'd have been in the wreck, which injured the occupants of another vehicle, had her 2005 Chevy not shut off. GM settled the Melton family's case, although the details remain confidential.

'67 Chevy Corvair convertible vs. '86 Pontiac Fiero in cult classic showdown

Fri, 22 Aug 2014

Every 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.
