1989 Pontiac Turbo Trans Am
One of 1500 made. Indy Pace Car Limited Edition. 19K
original miles. This car has the Buick Grand National 3.8 Turbo engine
installed from the factory. It was the fasted US production car in 1989. With
the lighter V6 Engine and the 1LE suspension this was a great handling car with
great braking capability. Never driven or been in rain or bad weather. Stored
in a heated garage for its entire life. Original paint, original rear spoiler
in great condition. Leather interior with all of the options. The paint and body are in excellent condition with no dings or scratches. A real garage kept and pampered car. Clean Car Fax and title. This car had a window sticker in 1989 for over $31K. That is
$60K in today's dollars. The car has the following upgrades and I have all of the original parts stored for the car. I took the factory exhaust off of the car when I got it to
preserve it.
Car has not been driven over several hundred miles during the last four years. It has a new battery and good tires. This has been a senior
owned car and never abused. I have an extra set of the rare rear rims. I will also include an extra set of glass T-Tops to go with the Lexan ones that come on the car. The TTA inherently has a weak transmission with the 200R4 that was used in all of the Turbo Buick's of that era. This car has an upgraded trans by Vince Janis, one of the best builders of these transmissions in the country. It also has a PTC 3000 stall converter which works perfectly with the car combination. The TTA also has an inherently inadequate fuel pump from the factory so that has been upgraded to the Walbro 255. All of the upgrades to the car were to address weaknesses in the factory TTA hardware. The car runs very good and it is time for someone else to
enjoy it as I do not drive it very much. The radio works intermittently but for the last few months
it has worked every time I started it up so I am not sure but thought I would
mention it. There is some slight wear on the driver side bolster which is normal for these cars. No rips tears or any stains on the carpet, seats, or doors.
My feedback score is 100% so I will be honest and treat you
fairly. I just noticed in the listing that it shows an odometer issue. When this car was titled in PA it was inadvertently listed as having 151,114 miles instead of 15,114. The current title states that 16K is the correct mileage on the title that I have and there are no issues with the mileage as this is an original 19K mile car with no issues with the title. I am not sure how these crept into the record with this car as far as the incorrect mileage and exceeds mechanical limits. Clerical issues, as I have a clean title and the car is obviously a very low mileage and well maintained car.

On Jun-15-14 at 16:34:32 PDT, seller added the following information: Under highlights it shows that it has MINOR_ISSUE with the title. The issue is obviously a clerical issue as it shows that the mileage was 7000 miles three months prior to the box being inadvertently checked "exceeds mechanical limits". As stated above the car is a clean and original 19K mile car. The incorrect mileage in PA was corrected on the next vehicle record to reflect the actual mileage of 15,114 which was correct. |

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
Junkyard Gem: 2006 Pontiac Solstice
Wed, Sep 4 2019The 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.
