Ok, I've had like a thousand people interested in this car offering me tons of trades and lowballing and never able to come up with the money, so let's try one more time. I have a very nice looking 1987 headturning Fiero with non-factory paint, a sharp orange. It has very low miles (76k) and starts right up, runs well, and shifts well. It is bone stock besides a polyurethane dog bone. The car is 26 years old, and has held up very well for being that old. It would make a good daily driver or project for motor swap, etc. It is by no means perfect, but every cosmetic issue it has could be fixed for under a grand according to the pricing I've done, which would make it nearly mint. It's a gorgeous looking, rare car. I will list every little thing I can possibly think of that is wrong with it. It is a manual transmission (5spd) and I replaced the clutch and slave cylinder 2 years ago which cost me $1400. I am the fourth owner, have clean title in hand. There are no dents or scratches. There is no rust on the body because the body is all plastic or fiberglass. The frame has minimal surface rust compared to most I've seen. I only drive this car once every two weeks or so, and I'm only selling it for room. I don't need the money, and I'm not desperate. I'm really more interested in cash than trades, though I will consider interesting ones. The car has power windows and locks and mirrors which all work. The radio and all speakers work. The pop up headlight motors work, which is semi-rare. Tread is good on the tires. I will list everything wrong with it now.

Paint-90% of the car is shiny and beautiful. The one portion around the sunroof and windshield pillars is starting to crack. And there is one small section on a piece of body molding on the driver's door that has chipped away as well. You don't see any of this unless you're close.

Window outer weather stripping-the window seals on the outside work fine but are cracked and ugly in my opinion.

Sunroof-(btw I have an extra sunroof) the seal around the sunroof needs to be replaced which is cheap. It doesn't leak but it's warped and will leak someday if not fixed.

Rear deck-the springs are worn out and the deck has to be propped. The seal that goes around the inner trunk is starting to rip and eventually will need replacing.

Interior-The interior is almost perfect except the seats. The drivers seat is torn up badly and there's a rip in the passenger seat. The rest of the interior is clean and beautiful. The seats need to be reupholstered or replaced. My leather guy said $300 for vinyl or $500 for leather. Craigslist and ebay have seats for anywhere from $50-150 usually.

Speedometer-The speedometer goes crazy. The needle goes back and forth and doesn't work properly. I bought the car this way and never bothered fixing it. The tach and all other gauges work properly. My mechanic did a diagnostic and said it's just a bad gauge.

A/C-worked when I bought it but blows warm now. Needs a recharge. But windows down works great and the sunroof lifts right out and can be stored under front hood.

Windows-The windows work fine but go down very slowly. It's been this way since I bought it 4 or 5 years ago.

Misc-The steering wheel shaft wiggles a bit and has some play. My mechanic said it's not worth it to fix and doesn't affect how it drives. He stated that it's a simple problem to fix, but complicated to take the whole thing apart.

Driver's door-for some reason the key won't open the driver's door, only the passenger door. So I've always had to open that one and hit the unlock button from that side. I've never gotten it checked out, because I didn't care about it much.

I think that's about it. The battery has been replaced recently. Oil has been changed every 2500-3,000 miles. Goes down the road great. It's like a little go cart for the road. I love this car, but I have 2 kids now and no space for both this and my motorcycle. I purchased it for $3,800 4 years ago with 62k on it and only has 76k on it total now. Then I had to stick $1,400 into it, so whoever can come up with the dang money is getting a deal.

My name is Jon. You can contact me via text or call any time on my cell which is 215.888.5129 or use the e-mail on here.  Thanks for looking. Any questions let me know.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General 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.

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

Here 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.
