This is my matching numbers 4 speed TATA. The car is very tight, very fast and is the most fun to drive of any Trans am I have owned over the past 35 years. The car is in excellent condition, always stored indoors and from what I can tell has always been well cared for with no rust ever, car has always been in the south.The previous owner is a Pontiac collector known for the quality of his cars. The paint is 15 years old and shows some wear and chips, but still shows great and draws a crowd anywhere she goes. It will need paint at some time to be concourse, look at the pictures and you can see the paint still looks great. The interior looks almost new, there is a fingernail chip on the steering wheel, drivers seat shows some use. see the pictures. All glass including mirrored T-tops look almost new. Everything works, the clock gets stuck sometimes, the radio has been replaced with a Pioneer radio/cd, stock ones are available on Ebay. Mechanically the car is near perfect and needs nothing to go across country, I would have no hesitation doing so. The matching numbers motor was refreshed at 55k and is super strong, it does have a slight puff of smoke on hot restarts, this is due to the valve guides being knurled by the machine shop instead of replaced, these heads do not use a typical valve guide seal so the guides will need to be replaced someday, it does not smoke at all after startup and does not consume oil and does not bother me at all, I know the motor is tight. The Super T10 is matching numbers and appears to have been refreshed at some date, I have no records of when, but it shifts great and is very quite. The rear end is matching numbers and was serviced by me, including axle seals, balancing driveshaft and new u joints. There is too much about the car to list here, it can be enjoyed for years as is or take it to the concourse level if you want. These are one of the fastest appreciating collector cars there is, hate to let it go but I have other cars I need money to finish. Please only bid if you can have funds available within 7 days, Buyer pays all shipping cost, I will help coordinate shipping with you for free or if you want to fly to Atlanta and drive it home I can pick you up at the airport. Please call Mark at 770-480-8085 for any questions or photos you need. Thanks for looking

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?

Wed, 07 Oct 2009

DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.
