Up for a NO RESERVE auction today is a gorgeous, 1 Owner 1997 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi sedan with 159k miles. This SSEi was one of only 4,446 out of 74,015 total Bonnevilles produced in 1997.  I would rate the exterior of this Bonneville to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. As you can see, this is a gorgeous vehicle. It is finished in dark cherry metallic with a supple taupe leather interior. While the exterior is not flawless, it shows extremely well for a 16 year old vehicle. The body lines up nice and straight. The hood, doors and trunk open/close easily. All of the exterior trim is intact and in good condition. This Bonneville has obviously been garage kept. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The alloy wheels show extremely well and are wrapped in a good set of rubber with above average tread. There is a small scrape on the bottom right front bumper near the fog light, and a touch up on the left front corner of the bumper. The airbag light is on, and the interior lights do not appear to be functioning correctly. Please take your time and check out each of the photos carefully to see how nice this SSEi looks!

I would rate the interior of this Bonneville to be in EXCELLENT CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. As you can see, the previous owner has taken excellent care of this vehicle. Pride in ownership is extremely noticeable when looking over this SSEi. The door panels are clean and tight. All of the buttons are present and work properly. The carpets are clean and full looking throughout the cabin. A full set of original SSEi floor mats are included as well. The dash and headliner are clean. The leather seats are supple and comfortable. Both front seats are power operated and go in a variety of different directions and have many adjustments for your comfort. The power windows, locks, seats and mirrors all work properly. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. The air conditioner blows ICE COLD AIR, too. The audio system is the original BOSE equalized sound system which powers up and works properly, except that the bulb for the radio display is out. This is a common Pontiac problem. It also has a tire inflator in the trunk, but I did not test it. A full set of owners books are also included. The trunk is spacious and clean.

Mechanically, this Bonny appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 3.8L Supercharged V6 engine starts right up and runs smoothly. I did not see any leaks and the engine does not smoke. Her road manners are excellent. It is truly a pleasure to drive this car. The suspension feels tight. The steering feels neutral and responsive. The brakes stop this full sized sport sedan with no issues. The engine makes good power and cruises easily. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts normally with no issues. She is wearing current PA Safety and Emissions inspection stickers good until July 2014. Out on the highway, she cruises nice and straight with no complaints. This car was made for the interstate. With the supercharger, this car can really get out of its own way! I had a new water pump and  set of drive belts installed this week. The valve cover gaskets appear to be fairly new as well.

I welcome and encourage you to come see, smell and drive this gorgeous Bonneville for yourself if you are able. It is one of the finest examples I have seen in recent memory. I am sure it will make its next owner extremely proud to drive it as well.  As I stated before, no 16 year old vehicle is perfect, this is why an in person inspection is encouraged. I try to point out any apparent imperfections that I catch, but everyone analyzes things differently.

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact Tim directly at 570-498-9301. Thank you and good luck bidding!

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.

In the early '60s, Baby Boomers born immediately after World War II were beginning to buy cars and enjoy their own distinctive music. This wasn't yet the drug culture; rather, it was the drag culture, more Jan and Dean "Dead Man's Curve" than Beatles "Lucy In The Sky." And a Baby Boomer's desired ride, more often than not, was Pontiac's GTO. Introduced as a manned-up option for Pontiac's compact Tempest, the early GTO was 389 cubic inches of romp and stomp. And with a marketing campaign that hit Middle America via what it watched and ate (TV ads and cereal-box promos were a big part of the GTO launch), there was no escaping it. Like most performance coupes and convertibles, 10 years later it was became an emasculated version of its once lusty self. And then it was gone. Its revival, championed by General Motors executive Bob Lutz, was not by any stretch the Second Coming. Starting in 2004, GM modified its Australian-built Holden Monaro to approximate the excitement of the original formula: a coupe body propelled by a big V8. But the Holden's sheetmetal was quietly styled, and even the 400 horsepower available by 2006 didn't electrify buyers. With hindsight, the resurrected GTO is enjoying more attention and, slowly but surely, increasing in value. This for-sale example shows well, enjoys low mileage, and is – naturally – priced well above what is perceived to be its market value. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac Vibe

Wed, Apr 17 2024

Just over a month before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 2009, General Motors announced that the 83-year-old Pontiac Division would be "phased out" by the end of 2010. Only three Pontiac vehicles were sold as 2010 models in the United States: the Solstice, Vibe and G6 (new G3s were sold here during 2010 but they were all 2009 models, while the G5 was available as a 2010 model only in Canada and Mexico). Today's bit of junkyard automotive history is one of the very last Vibes ever built, found in a yard near Denver, Colorado. This car is significant not just as one of the final vehicles to bear Pontiac badges but also as one of the last cars built by the New United Motor Manufacturing Incorporated GM-Toyota joint venture in California, better known as NUMMI. The NUMMI factory began life as GM's Fremont Assembly, which built its first vehicle (a C-Series pickup) in 1963 and closed in 1982 after building its final vehicle (an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera). Rebooted as NUMMI, the first 1985 Chevrolet Nova (an Americanized AE82 Toyota Corolla Sprinter) rolled off the line in December of 1984. A quarter-century and better than eight million vehicles hence, NUMMI shut down production after its last Corolla was finished on April 1, 2010. While there was some noise about the Oakland Athletics building a new stadium on the site at the time, Tesla ended up buying most of the site soon after that. Tesla now builds more vehicles per year there than NUMMI ever did. The Vibe was co-developed with Toyota and based on the same platform as the ninth-generation Corolla. The Toyota Matrix was mechanically identical and was built in Canada, while the Japanese-market version (known as the Toyota Voltz) was built on the same NUMMI line as the Vibe and shipped across the Pacific. The Vibe/Matrix/Voltz got a redesign for the 2009 model year, but few noticed due to all the turmoil in the GM world at the time. The final Vibe was built in August 2009. This car was built in July of 2009, just before the end. It was living in West Texas just prior to coming to Colorado. El Paso is about a ten-hour drive from this car's current location. Once in the Centennial State, it got parked somewhere it shouldn't have been and ended up being auctioned to Pick Your Part. An occupant of this Vibe had time to sample some of the local agricultural products before that happened.
