2009 Pontiac G8 Base Sedan 4-door 3.6l - One Owner - Nearly All Highway Miles on 2040-cars

Year:2009 Mileage:35748
Location:

Sundance, Wyoming, United States

Sundance, Wyoming, United States

This full-sized Pontiac G8 is a pleasure to drive and the most comfortable car I've ever owned.  It's been driven primarily on Wyoming highways by me when I was working.  It's a heavy, super responsive, road hugging, go fast car that is so fun to drive!  If you love Pontiacs, given the great condition this car is in and the low mileage, it would make a great collector car.

There's been no smoking, pets, or food in the car and the interior is in excellent condition.  It's been kept in a garage.  There are minor scratches and dings in the paint from normal driving.  All service records for the vehicle are available.  There have been no mechanical problems with the car and it hasn't been in any accidents.  The tires are the original tires and are still good.  The battery is brand new. 

The car has a 3.6 V6 engine, 256 HP and 6300 rpms with automatic transmission including sport mode, rear wheel drive, antilock disc brakes with electonic brake assist. 

Other standard features include:  remote start, remote door lock and trunk release, traction control, stability control, power windows and locks, XM satellite, ONstar, 18 inch wheels, sport dual hood scoops, rear spoiler, and dual exhaust with polished stainless steel tips. 

The optional features included with this car are:  leather seating surfaces, front heated seats, 6 way power seats for both driver and passenger, leather wrapped steering wheel and shift lever, comfort and sound package that includes dual-zone air conditioning, AM/FM stereo with 6 disc CD changer, and premium speaker. 

The car was purchased new in March, 2009 by me.  I bought it in Lander, Wyoming as my personal effort to help save General Motors.  ...  at least that's what I like to say.   When GM decided to discontinue Pontiac production,  I decided this car would become an especially good investment eventually. A relatively small number of G-8's were made (only 2008 and part of 2009) and there won't be any more Pontiacs.  The original purchase price for this car was $31,045.  According to what I've read, G-8s were marketed poorly and the purchase price was actually reduced by $3000 to $5000 before production ended in mid-2009.  I expect that in time, though, that the value of  G-8's will go up because there's just not a lot of them available. 

I wouldn't be selling the car if I didn't have to but I have no need for it since I've retired and moved and have no place to keep it.  Until now it has always been kept stored in a garage.   In the past 18 months, I've only taken it on the road for a short drive a couple times.

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels

Sat, 14 Dec 2013

We like cars, and we like art. Naturally, Chris Labrooy's Auto Aerobics series - computer-generated images of some seriously contorted 1968 Pontiac Bonnevilles floating in mid-air - instantly clicked with us. If the Pontiacs weren't floating or hollow, we could be fooled into believing the image is real. But where's the fun in that?
Check out the gallery we included of Labrooy's Bonneville art, and feel free too head over to his website for some Formula One humor.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
