WATCH THE VIDEO WALK-AROUND
 


 This car has 2011 rear tires, 2013 front tires, Nitto Invo. New plugs, O2 sensors (all 4), belt and battery. I keep the old plugs with the car so you can see it is running perfectly. New upgraded sway bar links and bushings. The paint is perfect, just a few rock pits in the front bumper/skirt, shines like new. Interior leather is also in like new condition. The original owner upgraded the sound system will better speakers all around and it would seem a subwoofer in the trunk. The subwoofer is gone, but all the wiring is in place, high and low level signal wires, a subwoofer control wire, as well as power wires for an amplifier. A new radio head unit  has been installed, Pioneer Z3 CD DVD GPS 7" touchscreen with built in 40GB hard drive which holds your favorite music ripped from each CD you play. Last thing is the headlights are now HID as well as the Fog lights, really lights up the road.

If you do not know this car, the 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO, let me give you what history I know. Released first in '04 as a joint effort between GM and Holden of Australia, a big name in road racing of sport coupes there, it was to bring a muscle car to compete with the Mustang. It was only made for these three years, but was planned to move onto the G6 platform when the recession hit and Pontiac was gone. In '04 it was fitted with the LS1 Corvette engine.

In 2005 the car was upgraded to the LS2 engine, more displacement and more horsepower. Unfortunately the car was a bit over powered, for the 2005-6 have a problem in the 'Launch' and the rear wheels will have a tendency to jutter, jump, shudder however you want to describe it. SO, if you are looking at other 2005-6 production years, look for some resolution having been install, most owners did nothing it seems. There are a couple of routes to attempt a fix, I have heard that heavier axles works, but the solution on this car does work. The decreases spring throw, -1.5", and the +2 spring rating increase combined with Koni Shocks not only makes a smooth wheel spinning launch, makes the  car handle really flat. Of course the 10.5" wide rims and tires help that out  also.

The other thing to look for in these cars is the seat corners, both front and back, that face the exterior of the car. I do not know what Holden used to stitch these seats together, but it does not do well with UV light. In most examples of this car, these seams threads have broken open, but not on this car, all the seats are perfect except the rub on the drivers waist bolster from getting in and out of the car. Also the headliners sometimes come unattached from heat, but again, not this car. From the CarFAX, It spent its life in North Carolina, a single owner, and from the looks of it, in a garage. The owner may have been in the Armed Services, for there are periods on the CarFAX where the car had no miles put on it. One thing is for sure, it was pampered.

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.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

Are orphan cars better deals?

Wed, Dec 30 2015

Most folks don't know a Saturn Aura from an Oldsmobile Aurora. Those of you who are immersed in the labyrinth of automobilia know that both cars were testaments to the mediocrity that was pre-bankruptcy General Motors, and that both brands are now long gone. But everybody else? Not so much. By the same token, there are some excellent cars and trucks that don't raise an eyebrow simply because they were sold under brands that are no longer being marketed. Orphan brands no longer get any marketing love, and because of that they can be alarmingly cheap. Case in point, take a look at how a 2010 Saturn Outlook compares with its siblings, the GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave. According to the Manheim Market Report, the Saturn will sell at a wholesale auto auction for around $3,500 less than the comparably equipped Buick or GMC. Part of the reason for this price gap is that most large independent dealerships, such as Carmax, make it a point to avoid buying cars with orphaned badges. Right now if you go to Carmax's site, you'll find that there are more models from Toyota's Scion sub-brand than Mercury, Saab, Pontiac, Hummer, and Saturn combined. This despite the fact that these brands collectively sold in the millions over the last ten years while Scion has rarely been able to realize a six-figure annual sales figure for most of its history. That is the brutal truth of today's car market. When the chips are down, used-car shoppers are nearly as conservative as their new-car-buying counterparts. Unfamiliarity breeds contempt. Contempt leads to fear. Fear leads to anger, and pretty soon you wind up with an older, beat-up Mazda MX-5 in your driveway instead of looking up a newer Pontiac Solstice or Saturn Sky. There are tons of other reasons why orphan cars have trouble selling in today's market. Worries about the cost of repair and the availability of parts hang over the industry's lost toys like a cloud of dust over Pigpen. Yet any common diagnostic repair database, such as Alldata, will have a complete framework for your car's repair and maintenance, and everyone from junkyards to auto parts stores to eBay and Amazon stock tens of thousands of parts. This makes some orphan cars mindblowingly awesome deals if you're willing to shop in the bargain bins of the used-car market. Consider a Suzuki Kizashi with a manual transmission. No, really.
