Pontiac Vibe/toyota Matrix 2003 Gt Model on 2040-cars
Marblehead, Massachusetts, United States
|
Pontiac Vibe/Toyota Matrix 2003, GT model (Same as Toyota XRS). Yamaha-manufactured 1.8 liter engine makes 180 hp @8200 rpm with six-speed transmitssion - car will reallly move! Car has most available accessories for year, including sun roof, roof rack, power windows, locks (with remote) and mirrors, side curtain airbags, cd changer, AC, anti-locki brakes, etc. 131k miles, excellent overall condition for age. This car has been rock-solid, bulletproof trouble free for me during 75000 miles and five years. Oil changes, tires, battery and brake pads - that's it. It is amazing what it can carry with the fold-flat passenger front seat. Unlike the newer models the rear window opens separately from the hatch for even longer stuff. There are a few things to mention: the car is ten years old. It has a minor ding on the driver's door under the GT symbol (photo) and the rear bumper cover has been bumped in the right corner so the back-up light now points up. (Good for spotting low-flying planes while backing up) It might be possible to pop it out. There is a stain on the rear passenger side seat (photo). The plastic splash shield in front of the left front tire is split. Other than that, the car is pretty clean and mechanically excellent. Tires probably average about 40 % and the aluminum wheels are in average condition for age. This is a no-reserve auction - I won't waste your time with hidden "reserves" or unrealistic buy it now prices. You tell me what it's worth! The car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction if it sells locally. $500 deposit withing24 hours, balance in seven days. I might be able to cooperate in delivery from Boston area under mutuallly negotiated terms.

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 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.

The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada. It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
