 This car has 2011 rear tires, 2013 front tires, Nitto Invo. New plugs, O2 sensors (all 4), belt and battery. I keep the old plugs with the car so you can see it is running perfectly. New upgraded sway bar links and bushings. The paint is perfect, just a few rock pits in the front bumper/skirt, shines like new. Interior leather is also in like new condition. The original owner upgraded the sound system will better speakers all around and it would seem a subwoofer in the trunk. The subwoofer is gone, but all the wiring is in place, high and low level signal wires, a subwoofer control wire, as well as power wires for an amplifier. A new radio head unit  has been installed, Pioneer Z3 CD DVD GPS 7" touchscreen with built in 40GB hard drive which holds your favorite music ripped from each CD you play. Last thing is the headlights are now HID as well as the Fog lights, really lights up the road.

If you do not know this car, the 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO, let me give you what history I know. Released first in '04 as a joint effort between GM and Holden of Australia, a big name in road racing of sport coupes there, it was to bring a muscle car to compete with the Mustang. It was only made for these three years, but was planned to move onto the G6 platform when the recession hit and Pontiac was gone. In '04 it was fitted with the LS1 Corvette engine.

In 2005 the car was upgraded to the LS2 engine, more displacement and more horsepower. Unfortunately the car was a bit over powered, for the 2005-6 have a problem in the 'Launch' and the rear wheels will have a tendency to jutter, jump, shudder however you want to describe it. SO, if you are looking at other 2005-6 production years, look for some resolution having been install, most owners did nothing it seems. There are a couple of routes to attempt a fix, I have heard that heavier axles works, but the solution on this car does work. The decreases spring throw, -1.5", and the +2 spring rating increase combined with Koni Shocks not only makes a smooth wheel spinning launch, makes the  car handle really flat. Of course the 10.5" wide rims and tires help that out  also.

The other thing to look for in these cars is the seat corners, both front and back, that face the exterior of the car. I do not know what Holden used to stitch these seats together, but it does not do well with UV light. In most examples of this car, these seams threads have broken open, but not on this car, all the seats are perfect except the rub on the drivers waist bolster from getting in and out of the car. Also the headliners sometimes come unattached from heat, but again, not this car. From the CarFAX, It spent its life in North Carolina, a single owner, and from the looks of it, in a garage. The owner may have been in the Armed Services, for there are periods on the CarFAX where the car had no miles put on it. One thing is for sure, it was pampered.

Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later

Fri, 12 Sep 2014



Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero

Fri, 26 Oct 2012

At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
