2008 White Hot Pontiac G8 GT with mild modifications.
**Vehicle is still covered by extended coverage of Major Guard GM Protection Plan until 94,696 miles or 11/15/2016,
whichever occurs first.
Since I have owned it, it has been kept in a garage or under cover, well maintained, engine always warmed to
operating temperature before driving, and I am a non-smoker. It was a daily driver with a commute of less than 20
miles a day, and has only added approximately 20k miles since purchase in 2013. Some scratches/chips from previous
owner and indicated in photos. Normal exterior wear and tear for 2008 vehicle, interior is practically pristine.
The GT comes with a 6.0 L (364 cu in) Generation IV V8 producing 361+ hp and 385 lb-ft torque. Features a 6-speed
6L80 automatic with limited-slip differential, capable of reaching 60 mph (97 km/h) in 5.3 seconds. Upgrades
include a Rotofab cold air intake system and Rotofab radiator cover, Pedders and Whiteline sway bars, as well as a
custom cat-back exhaust system.
This car has all standard sedan options except sunroof and bluetooth, PLUS quad tailpipes, clear taillight lenses,
automatic dual-zone air conditioning, larger center-console display screen, 19" wheels, remote start, heated seats,
tilt & telescoping steering wheel, and an 11-speaker Blaupunkt premium audio system with 2 subwoofers, 6-disc CD
changer, and auxiliary input jack.
At just under 73,000 miles, engine was dissembled, cleaned, and partially rebuilt due to spun connecting rod
bearing. Service was performed by GM under warranty and further details and paperwork can be provided.
Reason for sale is that I am relocating internationally.

What's driving the spike in air-cooled Porsche 911 prices
Thu, Mar 26 2015Classic car prices have been racing skyward in general, but prices for air-cooled (pre-1999) Porsche 911s are ascending like they're strapped to rocket boosters. It's been going on for years, and every year people are surprised by how outrageous it's getting: Classic Driver covered it this month, as did The Truth About Cars who included this example of a "scruffy" 1993 RS America with 215,000 miles asking $80K; Mike Spinelli at Drive riffed on it at length last year along with a host of classic-car-market observers; Porsche forums were at it two years ago; and let's not even get into the 993 Turbo, going for prices so high you have to lie down to look at them. Speed Academy has run a piece looking at why it's happening, one theory being that regular-guy owners are hopping on the runaway-price wagon without any good reason. As in the example of that high-mileage, scruffy 911 RS America at Bring a Trailer, the owner sees pristine examples valued by Hagerty at $170,000, and even though the average value is $93,238 he thinks something like, "Mine's got to be worth half of top dollar ..." The tide - even one rising on air - makes it hard to find decent prices. Then there is the flood of money into the market. In spite of articles that try to temper investors' outlooks on collectible cars, other articles in places like the Financial Times and the Guardian promote vintage metal as a safe place to put money and reap astonishing returns. Speed Academy thinks one side effect of high 911 prices is that responsible enthusiasts are turning their attention to cars like the BMW 2002, E30 M3, and E9 3.0CS, saying their prices are "sharply on the rise." The entire article is worth a read since it goes into markets far afield from pricey German steel, but incredibly, the entire piece was actually inspired by a 1997 Acura Integra R that sold for $43,000 on eBay. So while this could be the best time to get into the classic car market if you know what you're doing, it is certainly the best time to do your homework. Related Video:
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.
Distracted driver crosses center line and hits police car
Wed, Apr 6 2016Attentive driving and quick reflexes saved the life of a police officer in Hudson, WI, when an oncoming driver drifted into the officer's lane and struck his cruiser. According to KMSP, the officer was patrolling along a busy road through Hudson on March 31 when the crash occurred. Dash cam video from the patrol car which was released to local media shows the dramatic collision unfold. As the officer came around a mild left-hand curve, a white, 90s-era Pontiac Grand Am continued straight through the curve, across the center line, and directly into the officer's path. The officer was able to avoid a head-on collision, but the Pontiac still struck the driver's side of the patrol car. "Both the officer and the other driver are ok, however, this accident could have been much, much worse," said a Hudson Police Department official on the department's Facebook page. "So please remember to pay attention to your driving at all times when behind the wheel." Minnesota's Department of Public Safety estimates that one in every four crashes in the State of Minnesota are caused by distracted drivers. DPS believes that the actual number may be higher, but police often have difficulty proving distracted driving as the cause of a crash. Government/Legal Pontiac Driving Safety Coupe Police/Emergency
