(If Pontiac offered it I think this car has it. )

TOTALLY UNMOLESTED

THIS CAR APPEARS AS IT DID WHEN NEW !!!!

The condition of this car leaves me speechless.

It is FANTASTIC.

I remember the day my friend Russ proudly pulled into my driveway with it to show it off.

THE CAR LOOKS AS NICE NOW AS IT DID THEN !!!!

I really think you can safely say this car is FLAWLESS !!!

This Is An

INVESTMENT GRADE

COLLECTOR CAR !!!

Russ and I were fellow small town Car-A-Holics / Car Collectors / Car Hoarders and knew each other for many years. Russ was actually in the process of selling down and thinning out his collection as his health was beginning to fail when Pontiac introduced the Solstice. He fell instantly in love. He resisted the urge for about a year and then couldn't hold out any longer. One day he drove past Pat Clemons Pontiac in Boone, Iowa and this car was sitting in the show room.

Russ knew it had everything necessary to be a Collectable rather than just a Driver.

THE RIGHT COLOR.

THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT.

THE RIGHT EVERYTHING.

He bought it and drove it home !!!

This car became the last addition to an impressive collection that had included everything from Fords to Gordon Buehrig Award winning Cords. Russ's passion for cars was life long. He pampered this car and drove it on occasion when the weather was right. The rest of the time it was stored in his climate controlled building. The car never saw rain or snow. The odometer reads 9,991 miles as I am writing this TODAY !!!

Russ passed away earlier this year and it is now time to pass this wonderful car on to a new owner !!!

This car will include

ALL DOCUMENTATION WE HAVE

SINCE DAY ONE,

INCLUDING THE ORIGINAL

DEALER PURCHASE AGREEMENT and BILL OF SALE,

Original Tags, Stickers and so forth.

THE FACTORY PROTECTIVE PLASTIC PEEL-OFF IS STILL ON THE RADIO FACE !!!

The condition is STUNNING !!!

I found no scuffs, Scratches, Blemishes or Wear and Tear

INSIDE or OUT !!!

THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN SMOKED IN AND STILL HAS THAT "NEW CAR" SMELL !!!!

IN MY OPINION THIS CAR IS AS CLOSE TO NEW AS A PERSON COULD FIND !!!!

YES,

I KNOW YOU CAN BUY ONE WITH

TEN TIMES AS MANY MILES

FOR

HALF AS MUCH MONEY !!!

BUT WHY WOULD YOU WANT THAT ????

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible

Wed, Aug 1 2018

The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

A case for Pontiac's return

Wed, Apr 5 2017

Sadly, many brands have disappeared off of the automotive landscape over the decades. Many people have imagined over the years of restarting defunct automotive brands. A few of those dreamers even made prototypes to shop around and to established connections with investors. But, alas poor Yorick, however valiant an effort, many brands are shuttered for good, rarely to be heard of again except in historical tales or maybe seen in car shows. So, what do you do when you win the lottery? Not just any lottery... In fact, it is a lottery that takes care of you and your loved ones for life? You and your family don't have to work, ever. You can give to charity, pay other people to do those projects that you've been putting off, and so on and so on. But, you're still a Car Nut right? There begins the conundrum. Do you buy and fix cars, new premium cars, old muscle cars, or classics, or maybe, just maybe, do you buy the rights to an old departed automotive brand and bring it back to life. Hmm. Which brand? The problem with the old Pontiac was that it was an additional badge engineered vehicle in the portfolio of GM. The meant the brand was diluted by competition from its own parent company, in addition to the competition outside the camp. So, if it were to come back, it would have to be different. Yet, it would still need to keep true to its roots at the same time in order to wake up its armies of existing fans. Even those that aren't fans of Pontiac cannot deny that Pontiac has a long heritage of legendary vehicles. So do Packard, and Studebaker, and others. So, why would a lottery winner choose Pontiac as the marque to bring back? That's easy! Pontiac's long heritage is closely tied to performance vehicles that made many of a teenager drool. Even more important though is that Pontiac is still fresh on people's minds. The brand itself is only recently departed. So, Boomers, Generation X, and Millenials all would all be able to identify with it as opposed to brand names that disappeared multiple decades ago and that now have a more limited appeal. The return of Pontiac couldn't just be another launch of a badge engineered vehicle. It would have to be performance oriented, yes. But, it would have to be unique in some way, a niche brand. What niche though? Look at the automotive landscape now and you see that Tesla is the one out there grabbing at the wide open electric niche with success.

Junkyard Gem: 2006 Pontiac Solstice

Wed, Sep 4 2019

The debut of the Pontiac Solstice, back in 2005 for the 2006 model year, stirred up much excitement in the automotive world. Sales were brisk at first, and then they weren't so great… and then Pontiac itself went under The General's cost-cutting axe. One thing I have learned during my junkyard travels is that even sought-after sports cars eventually reach a point at which they start showing up in the big self-service junkyards. For example, the BMW Z3 began appearing in such yards about five years ago, along with the Audi TT. While the Honda S2000 still appears to be exempt from this process, today's Junkyard Gem shows that the time has now come for the Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky. The first Z3s and TTs I saw in the U-Wrench-type yards were crash victims, not worth fixing, and that's the case with this Solstice. In a few more years, I'll start seeing the occasional Solstice/Sky discarded due to general worn-outness. Someone grabbed all the undented front body parts and the transmission (these items, presumably, being valuable), but no junkyard shoppers have felt like pulling the non-turbo 2.0-liter Ecotec. The interior seems dirty, probably from exposure to the elements while sitting outdoors in this Colorado Springs wrecking yard, but not in bad shape otherwise. Perhaps the car's owner celebrated a return from Iraq with the purchase of a sporty new Pontiac, 13 years ago. These cars have an enthusiastic following, so I wasn't expecting to see a junked one so soon after production ceased. I felt the same way about the Chrysler Crossfire, however, and I found two of those last year. What's next, a 2002-2005 Thunderbird? This content is hosted by a third party.
