I am selling this vehicle as is. It is a black 1997 Pontiac Grand Am GT, 6 cylinder automatic. It had 267,896 miles last time I did maintenance, so its a bit higher now. I am the second owner of this car, and obtained it in 2005. It was in great condition when it came to me, and I've taken care of it, but time has worn it out a little. I can only list 4 pics for free, but if you message me I think I can reply and attach more photos if you'd like to see them. The car has been amazingly reliable, and had very few problems over the years. Regular maintenance (kept records), and early precautions kept it from ever having any major engine problems. I actually chose to get another pontiac due to the positive experience, and reliability, I got out of this one. I was still driving it, and everything was going working properly, until this week when it began to overheat. I had the water pump replaced, but after a day it began to overheat again. I drove it to be repaired and stopped three times to let it cool down, however on the fourth stop it started really clanking and shut off completely (so I had it towed). It wasn't the car's fault, I should have called triple AAA instead of driving further when it was still so hot. So I've been told that, at this point, the radiator is bad and the engine also needs some work. It was running perfectly prior to this, so the overheating caused some damage (and more noise than normal). It runs (noisily), and moves, but as it is, I wouldn't expect to drive it very far or fast (due to the overheating). I'm selling it for parts, or repair. Its been an amazing car to me, and I hate to see it go, but it was time for an upgrade for me anyway, so I've chosen to do that rather than have this one repaired. But I really believe this could still be a great little car to someone out there, once the radiator issue is resolved. On the plus side, it has: A full tank of gas Also, it has accurate cruise control, the air conditioning is super cold, the heat works great, it has power locks (the locks engage automatically when the car is put in drive), with a working key fab, power windows (controls for all windows included on drivers side too, as well as working window lock), a working AM/FM radio with CD player, and powerful sound. Note: The stereo in the picture will be removed, and either left empty, and give you the original radio for this car seperately (ask for pics), or the original will already be installed again when you receive it. I'm not sure which yet. It also has driver and passenger airbags, all working seatbelts, adjustable seats, decent interior with no major tears or stains, working overhead/reading lights, rear window defrost, working winsheild wipers (do need replacing), and a cigarette lighter. Theres a roomy trunk, and storage space in the glovebox, console, and tray beneath the radio, as well as pockets on the back of the seats. The headlights & brights work well, as well as brake lights, turn signals, emergency blinker signal, and fog lights (one needs replacing). It comes with the manual, maintenance records, two key fabs, two keys, and one fabric door panel. I know she'll be as great to you as she was to me! |

2.1 million vehicles recalled again over faulty airbags
Sat, Jan 31 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda and Toyota will recall 2.1 million vehicles to fix faulty airbag modules "after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles." These vehicles had all previously been recalled, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that the airbags could still potentially malfunction. This recall will cover Acura MDX, Dodge Viper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Honda Odyssey, Pontiac Vibe, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon models made in the early 2000s. NHTSA has reportedly received about 40 reports of airbag deployment in such vehicles, even though the vehicle had not been involved in a crash. Roughly one million of these same vehicles, all from Honda and Toyota, are also subject to recalls due to faulty Takata airbag modules, though this particular recall is for "an electronic component manufactured by TRW" that is separate from the actual airbags from Takata. According to NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind: "This is unfortunately a complicated issue for consumers, who may have to return to their dealer more than once. But this is an urgent safety issue, and all consumers with vehicles covered by the previous recalls should have that remedy installed. Even though it's a temporary solution until the new remedy is available, they and their families will be safer if they take the time to learn if their vehicle is covered and follow their manufacturers' instructions. A hassle is much better than a family tragedy." If you're the owner of an affected car, expect to hear more from the official automaker and government channels in short order. In the meantime, we'd suggest getting your car checked and fixed at your local dealer. The official statement and recall information can be found below. Previously Recalled Vehicle Remedies Not Working as Designed; NHTSA Announces Follow up Recall of 2.12 Million Cars and SUVs Saturday, January 31, 2015 Contact: Gordon Trowbridge, 202-366-9550, Public.Affairs@dot.gov WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced today the recall of more than 2.12 million Acura, Dodge, Jeep, Honda, Pontiac, and Toyota vehicles for a defect that may cause airbags to deploy inadvertently. The recalls will provide vehicle owners with a new remedy after the manufacturers' original attempts to fix the defects proved ineffective in some vehicles.
Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
