Performance Autos of SW Florida
My name is Mike and I can be reached at 239-895-3962

It has been driven an average of about
16,000 miles a year and now has 130,246 miles.

We had this vehicle
safety inspected/oil changed and also installed a new air conditioner
compressor and 4 "New" Firestone FR710 tires which have 50,000 mile tread life!

              Underneath is clean and "Rust Free" like a Florida vehicle should be.

Don't forget the 2006 Vue has a "Honda" engine!
The 3.5L SOHC MFI 24-VALVE V6 has plenty of
pep with 250 horsepower and because it's a Honda engine it is durable
and trouble free plus it gets 19 combined and 25 MPG's on the highway
according to fueleconomy.gov.

Chrome roof rack
Chrome trim
17" alloy wheels
Tinted windows
ABS Brakes

I've read some people are even getting over
30mpg's on the highway.
Amazing!!

Questions?
Call Mike 239-895-3962

Also the engine and transmission run and shift nicely and no rattles or front end noise.
 This vehicle is "tight" and smooth on
a new set of Firestones.

Custom Saturn stripe

This gorgeous V6 Vue is loaded with extras and the
exterior is a rare color in Fusion Orange Metallic and the interior
has beige carpets and black leather seats and a leather wrapped steering wheel.

I drove this vehicle around town and the
air blows ice cold and remember we are in Fort Myers, Florida where
today the heat index was over 105 degrees.

Options include
ICE cold air conditioner (new compressor)
Tilt wheel and cruise control
Traction Control

AM/FM CD player

All the power equipment
works and the stereo sounds excellent. GM is running a special 3 months
"FREE" OnStar in 2006 GM vehicles and newer so you can take advantage of that.

OnStar
White analog dash
Factory floor mats
Owners manual/books and
keyless entry with remote plus many many more!

The exterior is in nice shape and the interior is clean.

Air bags - Driver and Passenger

Fold down rear seats

Power windows/locks and side view mirrors

 

Power sunroof

I looked online and most people are asking between $8000-$10,000 for a
comparable V6 Vue. Plus they might not have leather/sunroof and new
tires. In addition, if you buy from a "Dealer" you may pay an extra
$300-$1000 in what they call a "Dealer Fee". We don't have them and we don't believe in them.

So to help with shipping or other transportation
costs we have made the buy it now super fair and super reasonable at
only $6777 and "No Dealer Fees!!!

Not sure if the timing belt has been changed;
however the good news is that it's only about a $300-$400 job.

If you have any questions call
me right now and "I WILL ANSWER", or call right back. Thank you for
your consideration, Michael J Medinis, GSM Performance Autos of SW Florida.

  • All vehicles are sold "as-is" with no warranty expressed or implied. Buyer assumes all responsibility once vehicle leaves our possession. The vehicle will be described accurately, but remember these are used cars, they will show signs as such. You are not bidding on brand new cars, so there may be parts of the vehicle that are not brand new. We are sure this is obvious to most people, but we just want it to be perfectly clear. We will do our best to describe all the obvious and important things so you have a good idea of what you are buying.  With advance notice we will make our vehicles available for a PRE-BID inspection. This must be completed prior to bidding.  We are an appointment only dealership.  Please just either email or contact us by phone when making an appointment to view a vehicle or to pick up one you have purchased.  Thanks so much.

Junkyard Gem: 2004 Saturn Vue with manual transmission

Sun, Mar 27 2022

GM's Saturn Division has been gone since the final 2010 Auras, Outlooks, Skies, and Vues slunk apologetically out of the showrooms, and I'm doing my best to document the more interesting models from The General's once-revolutionary brand. Some of the later Saturns began life as Opel designs, but the Vue actually was the first vehicle to go on the all-new GM Theta platform; the Opel Antara was thus a Saturn copy, a fact that Saturn fans no doubt trot out when they get shamed by Opel zealots over the Astra. Today's Junkyard Gem is a most unusual Vue, in the sense that its original purchaser was fine with both the base manual transmission and the leather-upholstery upgrade. Sure, the cheapest way to buy a new Vue— which was sold here for the 2002-2007 model years— was to get it with the base transmission: a five-speed manual. You can still buy a new car with a five-on-the-floor manual right now, but only in a handful of cheapmobiles; by the middle 2000s, a tiny-and-ever-shrinking subset of American car shoppers would even consider a three-pedal commuter vehicle. Really, there were only two reasons an American new-car buyer would have considered a non-enthusiast vehicle with a manual transmission in 2004: either an eccentric preference for the good ol' stickshift or just plain penny-pinching. The cheapest possible '04 Vue was the version with four-cylinder 2.2-liter engine, front-wheel-drive, and five-speed manual transmission, and it started at $17,025 (about $26,080 in 2022 dollars). That's what we're looking at here. The optional CVT automatic transmission cost an additional $2,095 ($3,210 today), so it made sense to get the manual if you wanted to save serious money on your Vue. However, this car is loaded to the gunwales with nice equipment upgrades, to the tune of at least the Leather Appointments Package ($755) and the Sports Plus II Package ($1,300) and probably a lot more.  So, a buyer who didn't care about power (so no V6 engine), didn't want all-wheel-drive, liked driving a manual transmission Â… but insisted on power everything and a full-zoot comfy leather interior Â… in a cheap small SUV sold by a fast-fading brand. The conversations with the Saturn salesmen about this thing must have been interesting. Built in Tennessee, sold new in Denver, will be crushed near Pikes Peak.

Best and Worst GM Cars

Thu, Apr 7 2022

Oh yes, because we just love receiving angry letters from devoted Pontiac Grand Am enthusiasts, we have decided to go there. Based on a heated group Slack conversation, the topic came up about the best and worst GM cars. First of all time, and then those currently on sale, and then just mostly a rambling discussion of Oldsmobiles our parents and grandparents owned (or engineered). Eventually, three of us made the video above. Like it? Maybe we can make more. Many awesome GM cars are definitely going unmentioned here, so please let us know your bests and worsts in the comments below. Mostly, it's important to note that this post largely exists as a vehicle for delivering the above video that dives far deeper into GM's greatest hits and biggest flops, specifically those from the 1980s and 1990s. What you'll find below is a collection of our editors identifying a best current and best-of-all-time choice, plus a worst current and worst-of-all-time choice. Comprehensive it is not, but again, comments. -Senior Editor James Riswick Best Current GM Vehicle Chevrolet Corvette We were flying by the seats of our pants a bit in this first outing and my notes were similarly extemporaneous. When it came time to tie it all together on camera, I failed spectacularly. Thank the maker for text, because this gives me the opportunity to perhaps slightly better explain my convoluted reasoning. I chose the C8 Corvette because it's simply overwhelmingly good, and it's merely the baseline from which this generation of Corvette will be expanded.  While the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing (more on that in a minute) is an amazing snapshot of GM's current performance standing and its little sibling so enraptured me that I went out and bought one, their existence is fleeting. Corvette will live on; forced-induction Cadillac sport sedans, not so much. So while all three are amazing machines when viewed in a vacuum, the Corvette stands above them as both a reflection of GM's current performance credentials and a signpost of what is to come. So, given the choice between the C8 and the 5V-Blackwing right now, I'd choose the C8. In 10 years, when the Blackwing is no longer in production and Corvette is in its 9th generation? Well, that might be a different story. Now, just pretend I said something even remotely that coherent when we get to the part of the video where I try to make an argument for the 5-V Blackwing as best GM car I've ever driven. Or just laugh at me while I ramble incoherently.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
