Supercharged Sports Luxury Sedan - Medium Red Metallic, original MSRP over $33K.
I've loved this car and wouldn't be selling it but the AC needs to be fixed and I just had a baby so I finally bit the bullet and bought a new car.
120K miles, probably has another 100K miles left in it with proper care. Runs beautifully! Gets great gas mileage for size/power - I averaged 30 MPG on a road trip to my brother's for Thanksgiving at about 70-80 MPH and typically get around 22/23 MPG for a general mix of stop and go/local highway travel. The EPA estimates are 17 city, 28 highway.
Yokohama AVID ENVigor tires put on in 2011, less than 24K miles ago, still in great shape and have a treadlife warranty of 5 years/60K miles. Also have lifetime road hazard warranty at local Watkins Tire & Auto on 41 at Port Charlotte/North Port border.
This is a comfortable, safe, luxurious car with features that were impressive for its time and still compare to most cars today!

Just changed the supercharger oil.
Had an oil change and tire rotation in the fall - with the oil life indicator I've usually only needed about 2 oil changes a year.
Calls for premium gas but I don't notice any difference in performance or gas mileage with mid-grade or regular.
I will include:
Air Compressor Kit with hose and attachments for filling tires, sports balls, floats, etc.
Supercharger Oil - 48 oz, enough for about 6 oil changes and they only need to be done about once a year.
Tools necessary for supercharger oil check/change (it's very easy).
Adapter for iPod
Premium Touch-up Repair Kit
Other misc.
As mentioned above, the AC isn't currently working (blows hot) - it might just need to be recharged with sealant, in the past that's worked and I also had an o-ring replaced and it blew ice cold for a year after that.
Other non-optimal issues:
Sunroof drains have tendency to clog/not drain properly and can leak into car if not kept up on.
Driver's seat leather is pretty torn up as shown in picture (only seat with damage), could be re-upholstered fairly inexpensively or use a seat cover or get a new seat from junkyard/online - I've just been using a cushion to cover it.
Light in clock/RSS doesn't always work properly - maybe needs a new fuse?
Slow oil leak, might need the valve gasket replaced eventually.
Area of paint near gas tank that a bird "went" on and even though I cleaned it off fairly quickly it has continued to degrade, visible in picture of driver's side of car.
I'm very honest and will fully disclose anything you want to know about the car, it's a great car but obviously not in perfect condition anymore at this age. I have the manual, all car records/receipts, and kept a log of all maintenance and other things done.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob 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.
eBay Find of the Day: 1967 Pontiac GTO Monkeemobile
Sun, 29 Apr 2012Say what you will about The Monkees, but the guys in the band had great taste in automobiles. Take the Monkeemobile, for example. Built off a 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, the custom featured genuinely interesting bodywork and some wild engine bolt-ons. If you're a fan of 1960s pop and yearn to relive the genre's glory days, eBay Motors may have what you need. A recreation of the 1967 Monkeemobile has showed up for auction. This particular replica was built by Dakota County Customs using an four-speed GTO, just like the original.
Built for the band's 45th anniversary and the final Monkees tour last year, this Monkeemobile is faithful down to every last detail. Unfortunately, the trumpet exhaust poking out of the front fender wells and the massive gold-flake blower are for show only. Seems fitting.
If you like what you see, this machine is up for bid in Richfield, Minnesota with two days left on the auctions. So far, bidding as whipped up to $60,000 with the reserve not met. Head over to eBay Motors to have a look.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
