Very well-maintained Trans Am, with low miles! A real head-turner! The engine runs smooth as silk and is extremely reliable. Operationally, there are no defects with the car whatsoever. Oil changed regularly with fully synthetic oil. Always filled up with premium gasoline. SMOKE-FREE! The 5.7L (347.8 cu in) LS1 V8 provides 305 bhp and is the same engine used in the 97-04 Corvettes!
However, there are a few blemishes that could be quite easily fixed:
- Driver-side headlight pops up and works, but one of the hinges is broken, so it sits at an angle.
- There are two dents on the passenger-side rear fender, behind the door. One at the bottom that is very small, and one near the center that is larger.
- The driver seat has a tear in the upper left side.
- The radio antenna does not go up and down anymore - it is stuck half-way up, but the radio and CD player still work great.
- Each door has a small crack on the inner plastic in the same place - see photos.
- While some of the photos may show the disc brakes as looking rusty, once you drive the car and touch the brakes they shine right up (no rust)!
- The check engine light is NOT on - but it came on recently and was checked - it was just an emissions problem, not a real issue!
The car is currently in Skipwith, VA, but I am going to college in Christiansburg, VA. I still drive the car, so the mileage may go up a little. The car will either be in Skipwith or Christiansburg when it sells!
Shipping or pick-up is the responsibility of the buyer. Local pick-up is okay.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys
Mon, 10 Jun 2013According 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.
Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
