1999 Pontiac Grand Prix Gtp Sedan 4-door 3.8l Supercharged Only 69k Miles!!! on 2040-cars

Year:1999 Mileage:69027
Location:

Franklin, Ohio, United States

Franklin, Ohio, United States

 Up for auction is a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP

This car is loaded with virtually every option available from the factory!  It comes equipped with power everything (locks, windows, driver's seat, flip-up sunroof), keyless entry with two (2) remotes, heated driver's seat, heads-up display (projects vehicle speed and other relevant information onto windshield), cruise control, ABS and traction control, dual-zone automatic climate control, trip computer/driver information center, CD player with steering wheel controls, and most importantly the 3.8 L engine with the rare supercharger option boosting the horsepower up to an impressive rating of 240!

Although no warranty is being given or implied, this car is my daily driver and currently has no known mechanical issues.  Everything appears to be functioning as it should including the A/C which is ice cold.  I've recently put four new Fuzion tires on the car and the brake pads and rotors are less than a week old, all the way around.  I've taken this car on many longer trips and it's just an extraordinarily comfortable and sporty sedan.

The most impressive thing about the car is the extremely low mileage for its age.  The odometer currently reads 69,027 although it could go up slightly by the time the auction concludes (no more then a couple hundred miles at most).

Cosmetically, this car is in great condition for its age.  It cleans up well and the paint still has a shiny gloss to it with the exception of the typical scuffs one might expect for a car of this age.  The only places these are present are up front (where every car shows signs of wear from bugs and other road debris), the driver's door, and on the top around the sunroof.  I have included close-up pictures of this area but please let me know if you would like to see them from another angle.  The interior is probably even cleaner than the outside as everything from the original floor mats to the leather seats appear to be in above average shape for its year.  The only noticeable flaws are a crack in the trim piece around the driver's door handle (a close-up is shown, easily replaceable) and a radio display screen that does not work.  However, with the heads-up display, you can still see virtually all the information that would normally be displayed on the radio with the exception of the time.  I think this car is a gem and it would be very difficult to find a Grand Prix of this generation in much better shape.  Please let me know if you would like any further clarification of the vehicle's condition before bidding.

A $500 deposit is required within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction via Paypal.  Full payment and pick-up is expected within 7 days.  Acceptable forms of payment are cash in person upon pick-up or full Paypal payment.  If the vehicle is going to be shipped (and the buyer will not be showing up in person) and the buyer wishes not to use Paypal for full payment, a cashier's check or money order will be accepted provided it is sent in advance and given time to clear before the car will be released for pick-up.

This vehicle has a clear Ohio title which will be notarized and ready to go upon its sale.

Starting price is $2,499.00  There is a reserve.

Please do not assume anything and ask any questions you may have before submitting your bid.  I will give you a response ASAP.

Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!

German prosecutors have recorded calls between VW bigwigs talking dieselgate

Thu, Mar 21 2019

It's barely possible to believe how poorly Volkswagen continues to handle dieselgate. Depending on which day you catch the news, the German carmaker embodies the corporate venality of "Michael Clayton," the comic blundering of the Coen Brothers' "Burn After Reading," and the every-man-for-himself vengeance of "Reservoir Dogs." Today is Tarantino day, with news that German prosecutors have recordings of phone calls between former Audi and Porsche development boss Wolfgang Hatz, ex-Volkswagen Group executive Matthias Muller, and current Porsche executives Oliver Blume and Michael Steiner. Hatz made the calls to the trio in November 2015, two months after Volkswagen admitted its diesel-particulate sins to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Hatz was still employed at the time, and in his company car. Who recorded the calls? His wife. Hatz and his missus apparently saw the storm coming and started stacking defenses early. Hatz's wife, who can be heard encouraging Hatz during at least one call, sent the recordings to Hatz's attorney from her mobile phone. According to a Google translation of the German newspaper Handelsblatt's report, she included the note, "Here is a very long, but quite informative conversation on the current situation with useful formulations." The report in Handelsblatt said that in Germany it is generally "not allowed" to record a conversation and pass it on to a third party. We don't know how the authorities will handle this matter, since prosecutors found the recordings in e-mail attachments on Mrs. Hatz's mobile phone. Remember, when the diesel scandal broke, VW spent months saying that only a small number of low-level personnel were behind it, and all of the higher-ups had been blindsided. Ex-CEO Martin Winterkorn claimed to be "stunned that misconduct on such a scale was possible in the Volkswagen Group." Winterkorn successor Matthias Muller said, "according to current information, a few developers interfered in the engine management." Former VW USA honcho Michael Horn told a congressional committee that "a couple of software engineers" programmed the software for reasons no one could understand. In the recorded conversations, Hatz apparently called Muller to find out how VW planned to treat him.

GM's got 107 problems and NHTSA's No. 1

Thu, Mar 6 2014

General Motors' problems with its recall of roughly 1.6-million vehicles continue to mount. Now that it has emerged that GM knew about the problem since at least 2004 but waited to recall vehicles until February 2014, regulators at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have begun a much deeper investigation. NHTSA has sent a 27-page survey to GM that includes 107 questions about the timeline of what led up to the recall, and it has until April 3 to reply. This isn't a simple, multiple-choice test. Automotive News believes that hundreds of pages could be required to answer some of the queries. NHTSA says that it is still investigating GM's response to the recall. "We are a data-driven organization, and we will take whatever action is appropriate based on where our findings lead us," said NHTSA in a statement on its website. If found liable, the automaker could face a fine as high as $35 million and even possible criminal charges, according to Bloomberg. NHTSA's questions include a detailed explanation of GM's examination process; how it will improve the process; why a planned redesign of the cars' key in 2005 wasn't implemented; and specific data on each complaint it received. According to Bloomberg, NHTSA also has records that show the company had a meeting with regulators to discuss the airbag failure in a Chevrolet Cobalt in 2007. New GM CEO Mary Barra has also hired an outside law firm to conduct an independent investigation about what happened. It will include questioning company employees who were involved with the process from the start. The recall stems from faulty ignition switches that shut off the car while driving, and if it occurs the airbags deactivate. Thirteen deaths and 23 crashes have been caused by the problem, according to Bloomberg. If you would like to peruse NHTSA's entire questionnaire for GM, it can be viewed here.

This GTO-El Camino mashup is the muscle truck of our dreams

Fri, Aug 31 2018

There were a hell of a lot of great muscle cars in the mid-1960s, from the baroque Dodges and Plymouths of the earlier part of the decade to the wild big boys like the Boss 429 and Olds 442 W30. Right in the middle of the decade, two of the most iconic of the bunch emerged — the Pontiac GTO and second-generation Chevy El Camino. And this one is a 1964 Chevy El Camino with the heart and face of its GTO cousin, and dubbed the El Chieftain GTO. It's currently for sale at RM Sotheby's Auburn auction, with no reserve status or estimate listed. This looks like a product that Pontiac could have sold at the time — its builder, Ron Lindeman, did an excellent job making it look like a factory product, right down to the taillight strakes inspired by the GTO. It's powered by a 389 — a Pontiac motor that was actually found in period GTOs, but sporting a single four-barrel instead of the sexy Tri-Power setup. It is, however, equipped with a Hurst four-speed manual and the grille badge to prove it to bystanders. Even the interior is made up to look like a GTO. We wish there was more of a description of the build in the listing, but if you love it, do us one better and buy the thing and invite us to poke around it. We are very much in love with this muscle-truck mashup.
