Red Pontiac Fiero 1984 Refurbished And Running Perfectly on 2040-cars
Scarborough, Ontario, Canada
Was on Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for 1984 This hot red Pontiac Fiero was love at first sight 8 years ago. Drove it 200km home fully safe and roadworthy from a farmers barn, where it had bee kept away from the weather since new; hence the ridiculously low mileage of only 30,000 km (20,000 miles). The ceiling fabric was old and lose, so it was first to be replaced. New tires, then plugs and wires, carberator, then new radiator, water pipes and thermostat including sensors. Last year, when ready to put it on the market, the clutch throw arm seized (a known issue with bushing throw arms) and the engine had to come out complete with transmission. So a new clutch, throwarm and waterpump while out of the car. While out of the car also installed new shocks/struts on the rear. Brakes are all new all around and new fluids all around. New fuel filter plus a couple extra to the new owner. As mentioned above, a laptop included with software and cable to monitor all vitals. Runs smooth, cool and turns heads. Very comfortable and a pleasure to drive. Hopefully the new owner will baby it as I have. |

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.

This Auto Aerobics car art ties our brains in knots like pretzels
Sat, 14 Dec 2013We 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.
