For sale I have my wifes 1997 Pontiac Bonneville SSEI Supercharged, with 3.8 Liter (3800 Series), V6 engine and automatic transmission. This car runs good and has roughly 144,000 miles on the car, give or take some miles. The car still is driven a few times per week, so mileage is not exact. This car is PA inspected, has nice alloy wheels, nice tires, factory dual exhaust, spoiler, paint is in super shape, body is solid, no paint fade, no paint peel, no rust. The exterior on this car is as close to mint as you can get for a 1997 car. Its not 100% flawless but its pretty darn close. The interior is very nice, has leather, and is loaded with basically every single option you can have, also has the heads up display on the dash. Has power seats, door locks, windows, air conditioning, power sunroof,  shift options for the tranny, so forth. The leather is good, the drivers seat has some cracking on the bottom and some wear but thats about it. The car runs great, has a newer battery, fresh oil change, the a/c compressor is noisey but the a/c does work good. Our mechanic says the compressor will eventually need replaced but it does make some noise. The transmission is a bit sketchy, the fluid is dirty and I'm assuming the filter probably would need changed too, it shifts erratic sometimes or shifts late and hard at times, sometimes seems to slip a bit. It could just need flushed or the fluid and filter changed, or a band adjustment, maybe a rebuild. I'm not a transmission guru so I don't know exactly what it needs to work right. It does get driven locally here or there but thats about it  now. Anyone buying this car, I would recommend trailering the car on a trailer or towing it if you plan on going any real distance. If you buy the car and decide to drive it away, do so at your own risk. I can't make any mileage guarantee on how far the car would go without giving you transmission issues, it may go 10 miles, it may go 50, I don't know for sure. I can say it has been reliable other than the transmission issue now, it was my wifes car and I can say it was never abused or beaten while we've had it. I replaced the steering column in the car due to the fact that we lost the keys last summer and the local dealer couldn't make a match for it. Due to this, we can't lock the doors or open the trunk, so you would need to have door and trunk key made. My wife has battled cancer for 3 years and racing and abusing cars is not her thing. We have 4 cars and can't afford to put all kinds of money into this one, otherwise, we could keep it. Its probably one of the nicest cars we have ever had as far as used cars. This car is sold as is, where is, you are responsible to pick the car up here. There are no warranties on this car, and I do recommend the car be towed but its your call. I require a $500 non-refundable deposit on the car, and the car must be picked up and paid for in full within 7 days of auction ending. I accept paypal and cash. Ask any questions and do your research before buying. Thank you for looking!

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.

The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada. It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
