Firebird Formula WS6, Ram Air's are very rare. Only 1102 Formula Ram Air Coupe were made over 4 years(1997-2000) time span. 175 were made in 1999(compared to over 30,000)Trans AM Coupes with WS6, Ram Air , over 7 model years)

CONTACT ME IF YOU WISH TO SEE THIS CAR, YOU MUST BID AND PURCHASE WITHIN EBAY RULES.

The heart of this vehicle is the WS6 Ram Air, LS1, V8, with 320 horsepower (HP was not exaggerated as it is today, research the dyno info. for this model year), SFI fuel injection. The sound of the exhaust is as unique to this car, as the sound coming from a Harley is to the motorcycle enthusiast.

The WS6 is an added package to the LS1 engine, which includes the functional air scoop in the hood, WS6 labeled high polished 17 inch aluminum wheels, Low restriction Dual Exhaust, Special tuned WS6 suspension, power steering cooler, and Z rated Goodyear Eagle tires. The 3.23 ratio rear axle was an added option.

In 1999 they were out performing Corvettes at the Drag Strip, so GM had to pacify Vette owners with higher horsepower(and higher price) in future years.

The car is also equipped with 4-speed Electronic Auto Transmission, 4-wheel anti lock brakes, and daytime running lamps to warn oncoming traffic to stay in their lane.

This "Bird" has rarely seen anything but sunny skies, and a climate controlled garage with car cover. It looks and drives very close to the condition it was brand new, when I drove it from the Car Dealer's Lot.!!!!

I am the only owner of this vehicle, and can give you any information you need about the car. I moved from having 5 indoor parking spaces, to another home with 2 indoor parking spaces in my new work location.

I need the space in my garage for the family Durango, my F-150, and driveway space for my daughter's car, and my work car.

DO YOU HAVE SPACE FOR THIS "RARE BIRD" WS6 RAM AIR????

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.
