Argyle, Texas, United States

This is more of a feeler to gauge any interest because I may potentially trade in my Solstice on another car, but would rather offer it here where others may appreciate what is done. 

My car is a 2008 GXP
42,513 miles
2.0 Turbo 260 hp/260 torque stock to the crank - with Trifecta tune approx 290-300 hp/320-330 torque to the rear wheels
5 speed manual
all options available for a GXP: leather, monsoon sound system, oem lip spoiler, polished wheels 
4 almost new Goodyear Eagle F1 GS2 tires, less than 9 months
Rear Diff and transmission fluid changed at 35,000 miles - redline synthetic
New spark plugs at 35,000 miles
New water pump at 40,000 miles
Oil always changed at 5,000 miles with Mobil 1 synthetic


Options I have added:

Trifecta Tune
Magnaflow Catback exhaust
Custom made 3/8" backbone, similar to what DDMWorks sells
B&G lowering springs (still have factory springs)
GMPP cold air intake (still have factory intake)
Leather stitched center armrest
Touchscreen radio (still have factory radio)
18" Vauxhall VXR wheels (still have factory wheels)
Projector retrofit with HIDs (can be switched easily)
Windrestrictor V2 with GXP etched into glass
20% tint on side windows, 5% on rear window
Front GM splash guards

I am asking $17,000 as it sits now, but of course am open to reasonable offers as well as removing parts to reinstall OEM components. 

Please email me with any inquiries. I also have a ton of additional pictures, but did not want to overcrowd the post and can send them via email.

Thank you for looking.

2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am

Mon, 13 May 2013

No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.

This KITT replica sold at auction for $32,500

Thu, Apr 23 2020

UPDATE: This 1987 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am KITT replica officially sold for $32,500. Here's hoping the new owner has a blast throwin' it into Pursuit Mode. Let's get one thing straight right off the bat: This isn't a perfect KITT replica. The original KITT used in the Knight Rider TV series was based on a 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. The one you see above, which is currently for sale at auction site Bring A Trailer, is a 1987 model, and since it's a GTA edition, it has some extra body cladding that the smooth-sided television car lacked. That aside, most casual observers would probably never notice the difference, and even those who did (like us) are still likely to be impressed by the car's transformation. This KITT replica is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 engine mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. It ought to be fairly quick, though quite a bit shy of the fictional car's very fictional 300-mph top speed. We're not exactly Knight Rider experts, but some quick Google sleuthing suggests that the Knight Industries Two Thousand supposedly cost more than $11,000,000 to build in Hollywoodland. This one will surely command a significantly lower sum — as of this writing, it's been bid up to $18,000 with four days remaining on the auction. This content is hosted by a third party.

There are several videos of the car that detail its modifications inside and out, but suffice it to say it seems to be a well-sorted replica. Here's hoping its new owner keeps it well clear of other KARRs. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

This Hoonigan mechanic's twin-turbo Trans Am is wonderful

Thu, Mar 24 2016

What do you drive when you work on rally machines for a living? Probably a Subaru WRX, and that's what Gregg Hamilton had for a while until working on his car felt too much like his day job. So when he moved from New Zealand to the US to work for Ken Block (with a few stops along the way) he bought something entirely different. This is Gregg's 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. It's a throwback to another time, but it's anything but stock. It has that magic combination of a big V8 with a manual transmission and rear drive, just like the tin-top racers Gregg watched in his Kiwi youth. He bought it sight unseen from its previous owner in Alabama, and has been tinkering with it ever since. There's something about the flared wheel arches and the classic Firebird gold-striped black livery that has us smitten. Scope out the six-minute clip above from Petrolicious and see if you don't fall for Gregg's Pontiac as well.
