This is a very low mileage and very protected goat.  In the trunk you can see the car cover that is on this vehicle 90% of it's time.  The Tires were very recently replaced as was the battery, both victims of neglect- flat spots from sitting on the tires and battery just gave up on life after not being used (less than 1000 miles on both but within the last 6 months.)  I bought this vehicle from an officer in the military with a large collection, he decided to sell a few of his toys to pay for his children's college. the mileage in the photo was as of 4/19/2014.  as of the 21st I haven't driven it beyond my driveway but I can not commit to this photo's proclamation... chances are I will drive it two or three times to work in the following week and will accrue an additional 40-60 miles, that is whey the listing state 17,898 miles.

I found the below comments from an article by Jim Flammang at cars.com. 

"Few model names evoke the muscle-car era of the 1960s and early 1970s like the GTO. Introduced as a 1964 offshoot of the Tempest, Pontiac's original GTO quickly captured the attention of youthful drivers who craved a strong V-8 and performance-oriented adds-ons in a relatively lightweight body.

 

Four adults can fit inside the GTO, which has 2+2 bucket seating. Black leather upholstery is standard, but hues that match the car's body are available. The GTO's color-coordinated interior extends into the door panels and instrument cluster. A six-CD changer coupled with a Blaupunkt 200-watt 10-speaker sound system, cruise control, keyless entry and a multifunction information center are standard.

The new LS2 6.0-liter V-8 generates 400 hp at 5,200 rpm and 400 pounds-feet of torque at 4,000 rpm. Two transmissions are available: a four-speed automatic or a Tremec close-ratio six-speed manual. Traction control and a limited-slip differential are included."

I will not release the vehicle until moneys have cleared.  Then and only then will I release the title, vehicle, or any other documents.  $500 is due via pay-pal withing 48hr's of auction close... this will be deducted from sale price and non-refundable, all other moneys will be due within 7 days- i'm not a bank and can not wait for special arrangements.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
