Up for sale is a Pontiac G6 from 2005.  First of all let me say I am the 2nd owner and have had this car since 17,000 miles and personally drove it since 2007.  In the year 2006 it was involved in a minor front end accident.  It was given a salvage title b/c the 1st owner refused to take it back so the insurance company totaled it.  There was NO frame damage and the air bags are intact. Damage was all sheet metal and a plastic trim, headlight, etc.  My husband took great care picking out this car and made sure it was safe and easily repaired.  All the repairs were done by a licensed professional shop in 2007 -- and ever since then I have completely forgotten about any of the previous history b/c it drives like a normal car in every sense. To look at and drive the car you would never know it was in an prior accident.  Even when I take it to the oil change place or mechanic no one ever tells me or notices there was damage or any issues.  It is a normal car -- other than its previous history.  As I was saying, in 2007 the car passed a highway patrol safety inspection and was issued a ''rebuilt'' title.  Which for those of you that dont know, it means the title is transferable in all states and canada just as any other title would be. 
The car has 98k miles and I had every intention of keeping it for another 50-100k miles.  In fact we just did all the "100,000 miles factory recommended maintenance"  with-in last 3 months.  The following repairs/maint. have been done to this vehicle in last 3 months: new spark plugs, all new rotors, all new brakes, all new struts and suspension, change of all fluids, replace the battery. Also got a 4-wheel alignment and the car drives down the highway with no vibrations and straight with no pulls to either side. The brakes are in great shape now that all replaced and with the new suspension it drives like a new car.  It starts up every morning no matter the weather.  Never had issues starting it. Also in last 18 months I bought all new tires. The tires have 70% tread remaining. I spent over $2500 getting this car ready for another 100,000 miles.  
The reason I'm selling is b/c we had to buy a mini-van for our expanding family and with the van and my husbands car -- we decided it just doesn't make sense to keep this car even though we just did all this work.  I do really like this car and will be a bit sad to see it go.  But I can honestly say that this car is in great shape. There are no issues mechanically with the car.  The exterior is in good shape and the paint looks good.  No rust or any issues.  There are minor imperfections to the exterior (small chips on front bumper) but nothing that is unusual for a car this age.  The exterior looks fine.  The interior there are no rips or tears, but the fabric has seen its share of kids spilling sippy cup drinks and snacks. The seats do have some stains from kids drinks spilling, etc.  I think if you got a good interior detail job it would look a lot better,  I just dont have the time to do this.  The car does not smell or have any mildew or stickiness. The seats just need a deep cleaning.
In closing, I want to say Im not a car dealer and dont sell cars with any regularity. Im just a private seller currently with 3 cars and I only need 2 -- so this G6 is being sold. I have all the maint records and this car was very well maintained at all the appropriate times.  The car engine and transmissions runs smooth.  When the car is idling it is smooth and engine sounds good.  
I do use Ebay alot and have 100% positive feedback.  Ive been a member of eBay for over 10 years and completed hundreds of transactions without incident.
If you have any questions please feel free to email me.  Good luck bidding. Thank you.

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven

Wed, Feb 8 2023

POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods.  However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows.  Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS.  Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence.  Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino  with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.

Woman Cleared In Fatal Car Wreck After GM Letter

Tue, Nov 25 2014

A Texas judge cleared a woman Monday for a car accident that killed her fiance in 2004, after General Motors acknowledged that her car would have been among millions being recalled for a problem that may have contributed to the death. Candice Anderson was driving a 2004 Saturn Ion when it suddenly veered off a road about 60 miles east of Dallas and slammed into a tree. Anderson, then 21, was severely injured when the car's air bags failed to deploy. Her 25-year-old fiance, Gene Erikson, who was a passenger, was killed. She later pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the wreck. But during a hearing Monday, State District Judge Teresa Drum expunged the conviction from her record, according to officials in the Van Zandt County court andAnderson's attorney, Bob Hilliard. In a letter given to the court ahead of the hearing, an attorney for the automaker confirmed that Anderson's Saturn would have been among 2.6 million GM vehicles recalled in February to address ignition switches that can slip out of the "run" position, causing the engines to stall and disabling power steering, brakes and air bags. Anderson's crash "is one in which the recall condition may have caused or contributed to the frontal air bag non-deployment in the accident," attorney Richard C. Godfrey wrote. Hilliard provided a copy of the letter to The Associated Press, and Godfrey confirmed its contents Monday. Anderson was initially charged with criminally negligent homicide because there was no clear explanation at the time why the wreck occurred, according to court documents from the case. She pleaded guilty to a letter charge in 2006, and was sentenced to five years' probation. She also was ordered to perform 260 hours of community service, pay court costs and cover the costs of Erikson's funeral. "GM knew this defect caused this death, yet instead of telling the truth watched silently as Candice was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter," Hilliard said Monday. "It took 10 years for GM to find its voice." In a separate statement issued by the company, GM said it "cooperated fully by providing technical information that was requested to make a decision in this matter." The carmaker also said the issue in Anderson's case was for local law enforcement and courts to consider. "That's why we took a neutral position on Ms. Anderson's case," the company's statement said. "It was appropriate for the court to determine the legal status of Ms.

Drive plays Smokey, Bandit with turbo Trans Am

Sun, Jun 28 2015

The modern trend for powertrains can be summed up with the simple maxim: cut displacement and add forced induction. Whether you are looking at the just-introduced 2016 Chevrolet Cruze or a BMW M3, this adage holds true. However, Pontiac's attempt at the idea goes all the way back in 1980 with the Firebird Trans Am and its turbocharged 4.9-liter V8. Drive's Mike Musto takes out a 1981 example to explain what makes this largely forgotten muscle car so special, and it certainly isn't performance. While a 4.9-liter V8 might sound like a lot in the modern world, keep in mind that only few years before the second-generation Trans Am was available with up to a staggering 7.5-liters of displacement. Turbocharging of road cars in the early '80s was quite archaic by today's standards, and the Firebird only managed around 200 horsepower with this mill. Without much go, the turbo Trans Am made up for a lack of power with lots of show. As Musto points out, the famous flaming chicken adorns practically every surface you can see on the coupe, and boost lights on the hood illuminate when the turbo is spinning. Musto still finds a lot to like about the turbo Trans Am. He even calls it "Burt Reynolds as an automobile." Find out why the coupe is so special in this entertaining clip.
