1999 Pontiac Grand Am V6 4-door SE sedan.  Excellent WINTER Car.  Always starts easy in any subzero temp. Newer International Biggest best Cold Cranking Amp battery.  Handles well in the snow, and has newer front strut assemblies and tires.  Just a little body damage on the exterior and the usual rusty spots of this era model make it bargain priced.  Regular maintenance done and oil changes done with full synthetic.  Heater, AC and blower fan all work good.  All electric window and door locks, power seat, mirrors, cruise control, gas gauge are all in perfect working order.  Only aggravation for me is the light on the clock radio tape deck has recently burnt out.  Coolant has been changed back to Prestone (the secret to avoiding the head-gasket leaks do to incompatibility with the corrosive Dexcool...thanks GM).  AND it runs cooler than it did with Dex.  Transmission is in better shape than most because it has had a tranny cooler since 2000.  Never used for much of any towing.  The hitch was utilized more for a bike rack a half dozen times.  Was a low mileage program car I bought from the dealership in ND in 1999.  Mileage is subject to change, as I still like driving it occasionally, still has lots of power and drives tight.   As far as oil consumption, the car does not burn or leak oil.  Gas mileage is as good as when I bought it, around 28 mpg on regular unleaded 87octane. Vehicle now has 173,350 miles on it.  I have a new replacement headlight to throw in.  Haven't installed it because it needs a front header assembly and a bumper cover.  Hood is functioning and the creased corner is bent back up into shape to accept the new parts installation.  Not a big  project.  Ironically, after this long winded ramble, I don't have the resource of time to do it myself, but  I would put a new aftermarket black primed bumper cover on and just put a 2 piece Bra on it, would cover all the damaged hood front. DIY fix.  Good Luck

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.
