1988 Pontiac Sunbird Gt Convertible 2.0 L Less Than 32,000 Miles on 2040-cars
Oxford, New York, United States
|
UP FOR AUCTION IS A VINTAGE 1988 PONTIAC SUNBIRD GT TURBO CONVERTIBLE WITH A 4-CYLINDER 2.0 LITER FUEL INJECTED ENGINE. EVERYTHING ON AND IN THE CAR IS ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR THE TOP WHICH WAS REPLACED ABOUT 5-YEARS AGO. THIS CAR HAS LESS THAN 32,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT AND HAS NEVER BEEN ON THE ROAD IN THE WINTER TIME; IT HAS BEEN USED LITTLE AND ALWAYS KEPT UNDER COVER IN THE WINTER MONTHS. MY PARENTS PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM A LOCAL DEALER IN UPSTATE NY. THE OWNER OF THE DEALERSHIP HAD PUT 12,000 MILES ON IT AS HE DROVE IT PRIOR TO THEM PURCHASING IT BUT THEY STILL GOT THE NEW CAR WARRANTY WITH IT. I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM MY PARENTS A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND DIDN'T PUT IT ON THE ROAD UNTIL THIS PAST SUMMER. THE CAR DRIVES AND HANDLES VERY WELL AS WOULD BE EXPECTED FOR SUCH LOW MILEAGE. IT IS A VERY SNAPPY CAR WITH FAST ACCELERATION. AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTOS, IT IS NOT MINT BUT IN VERY NICE WELL PRESERVED CONDITION. THERE ARE SOME MINOR FLAWS WITH THE VEHICLE INCLUDING VERY MINOR SCRATCHING OF THE PAINT, SOME OF THE SUNBIRD LETTERS MISSING ON THE FRONT OF THE CAR, A LOOSE HOOD RELEASE LATCH (STILL FUNCTIONS FINE THOUGH), A SPEAKER THAT CRACKLES A LITTLE AND THE A/C DOES NOT WORK ALTHOUGH I HAVE NOT TRIED TO HAVE IT CHARGED; THAT'S REALLY IT. IT'S AN AWESOME VINTAGE CAR WITH A TON OF LIFE LEFT IN IT. PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. THIS CAR IS BEING OFFERED FOR PICK UP ONLY. WHILE I MAY CONSIDER AN OFFER LESS THAN THE STARTING PRICE, IT WON'T BE FOR MUCH LESS AS THIS CAR HAS ALOT OF SENTIMENTAL VALUE TO ME AND I'M IN NO RUSH TO SELL IT AND DON'T MIND KEEPING IT IF I NEED TO. THE CAR IS ALSO BEING LISTED LOCALLY AND IF IT SELLS, I WILL END THIS AUCTION EARLY. THANKS FOR LOOKING.

'67 Chevy Corvair convertible vs. '86 Pontiac Fiero in cult classic showdown
Fri, 22 Aug 2014Every few a decades, the folks running General Motors lose their minds briefly try to market a car that public doesn't see coming and often aren't ready for. In the '60s there was the rear-engine, air-cooled Chevrolet Corvair, then the mid-engine Pontiac Fiero in the '80s and the completely bizarre Chevy SSR in the 2000s. What all of these had in common was that they bucked the trend for American models of their era, for better or worse. The latest episode of Generation Gap tasked the hosts with finding two cult classic vehicles to choose between; they came come up with two of these quirky products from The General.
On the classic side, there's a 1967 Chevy Corvair Monza convertible. Being from later in the production run, it wears slightly more aerodynamic styling than the earlier, boxier examples. Hanging out back is an air-cooled, 2.7-liter flat-six pumping out a robust 95 horsepower. In the other corner is the somewhat more modern 1986 Pontiac Fiero SE with a mid-mounted, 2.5-liter "Iron Duke" four-cylinder, an engine nearly ubiquitous in GM cars of the '80s.
Judging by when they were new, the Corvair was far more successful than the Fiero with over 1.8 million sold. Of course, Ralph Nader's book Unsafe at Any Speed kind of poisoned the well, even if the poor safety reputation wasn't entirely deserved. The Fiero on the other hand only lasted for a few model years before shuffling off, but it eventually got its own performance boost with the V6 version and rather attractive GT models. Check them both out in the video and tell us in Comments which you want in your garage.
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.
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.
