2002 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 17,269 miles 6 speed Hurst manual, T-Tops Black Exterior with Ebony Interior 17" Speed line Chrome Wheels (stock) Clean car fax. No accidents. Always garaged under a cover. Clean and Clear Title. Still smells NEW! Over $10,000 of quality top of the line parts invested. It can be your "weekend warrior" or your "show and some go" car. It needs nothing but a new owner. Pictures speak for themselves! ZERO accidents and a CLEAN car fax!!! NON SMOKER, ICE COLD A/C Although car fax says the car is a 3 owner vehicle, it’s not. I’m the 2nd owner and have all the paperwork to prove it. It's because I registered it with a new custom license plate in which New York State deemed it to be a new owner. This is incorrect. I'm the 2nd owner of the car. I purchased it used in August 2004 from a certified dealership in Canandaigua, NY. It was on the showroom floor and had 4,333 miles at the time. Details: The following items are on the car and will be included in the sale AS WELL AS ALL STOCK parts taken off, if you want them. Exhaust - Kooks stainless steel 1 3/4" headers - Kooks stainless steel 3" catted y-pipe - BORLA stainless steel 3" adjustable catback (complete with all plates) - DMH electric cutout in place of the Borla plate with custom mounted interior switch on center console. ***Car will pass emission standards!*** - MSD wires, with TR6 plugs Suspension - Koni 4/4 adjustable shocks - Sam Strano 1" lowering springs - UMI 3 point tubular bolt-in sub frame connectors (RED) - UMI lower control arms (RED) and relocation brackets (BLACK) - UMI on-car adjustable rod-end panhard rod (RED) - Hotchkis Strut tower brace (Chrome) Induction - Lid, smooth bellows, and mass air flow sensor- All by SLP Performance - K/N air filter - Ported and polished throttle body with throttle body bypass - done by New Era Performance Interior - MacEwen White face gauges with custom decal overlays - WS6 store short stick - 5% window tint on front and rear windows.

Plenty of tread depth remaining. - I rolled in the inner fender lip and pounded in the wheel well and sprayed rubberized undercoating as a preventative measure from possible wheel rubbing. Miscellaneous - SLP Skip Shift Eliminator - Under hood Appearance: Stainless Steel Polished Covers (Fuse Box, PCM, Brake booster, and a piece on top of the intake after throttle body) - Decal stating build # - Optima Red top battery - T/A Performance Cover with stud kit on rear end - Trans Am “Last of the Breed” cylinder head plate Professional dyno tune by NEW ERA PERFORMANCE. Car made 348rwhp/360lb tq before the throttle body porting. All work was performed by New Era Performance in Rochester, NY. I have the dyno graph and receipts. Any of these parts can be "goggled" to find out about pricing or about the company that makes them. There have been no modifications to the engine itself at all. It’s completely stock internally. Oil is changed before storage every year by myself and I only put on about 500 miles a year, if that. STOCK PARTS ARE INCLUDED IN SALE OF THE CAR, if you want them. Since I bought the car, it’s always been garaged under a cover. I have won numerous car shows for best in class (firebird/camaro/transam 4th gen) and even one best in show. The car has never seen snow or ice but it has seen rain 5 times, yes 5 times. The time I drove home from the dealership directly after purchasing the car. Twice on the way home from car shows, and twice when I took my (at the time fiance) out. The car is washed frequently and waxed yearly. This car has NEVER been dragged or raced, nor performed burn outs but it has been driven. After all, it’s what they were built for- Stop light warriors! My initial goal with all of the modifications was to add a procharger and make it a sweet street/show car with excellent handling but I found the car to be enjoyable without the procharger. As it sits right now, the exhaust makes it sounds mean and it’s loud too! You ever have the joy of driving down the street while setting off the occasional car alarm? It’ll bring a smile to your face every time. Not your style? Use the electric cutout for a more stock/quieter sounding car. It still has some rumble but without the noise complaints from your neighbors. Flaws: I’ll be honest and up front and as descriptive as possible so there are no surprises. Contact me via eBay for additional pictures if you request them. All flaws are strictly cosmetic and there are no drivability issues. -One of the stock rims has a scratch in the clear coat. It's not noticeable until u get up close. -Passenger door had a scratch professionally filled and buffed out but still slightly noticeable in direct sunlight reflection. -Sail Panel is starting to have the infamous bubbles under the clear coat. They are very small but I wanted to make you aware. -The front bumper has a small spider web crack in the paint from the hood latch (only visible when hood is open) -SLP lid has a blemish on the top and seems to be rubbing on the underside of the hood. -The T/A Performance cover has a small leak around the seal causing an extremely slow drip. -There is a 1” slice in the carpet on the passenger side over the trunk behind the back seat. -The driver side front Goodyear GSD3 tire has a small slash in the bottom of the sidewall from some kid with a razor not liking my car. It's been there for 2 yrs and my mechanic says it’s not detrimental the tire. -Driver side floor mat is showing signs of wear -Alignment is spot on but the steering wheel is not centered/straight. I haven’t had time to have my mechanic fix it for “looks” -It does NOT have the most popular flaw of the cracked door panels. Both are intact and still solid.
Please keep in mind that this is a 12 year old car and most of these items listed are normal wear items. Reason for selling: I just don’t drive it anymore. Plus, my family is out growing our house and need to upgrade and I could use the extra money. I don’t have to sell the car but I rarely drive it and feel that it deserves to go to someone who would drive it and enjoy it. Shipping: Buyer is responsible for shipping or local pick up. I may be able to facilitate with a friend who can transport in an enclosed trailer for an extra fee. Check with me if interested. Payment: Buyer must contact me upon sale to make arrangements for completion. A $500.00 NONREFUNDABLE deposit via PayPal will be due upon completion of sale with the rest of the funds being due within 14 days. I will accept a Wire Transfer, Certified funds, or an Official Bank Check ONLY, sorry no cash sale. Funds must be cleared by the bank on your end first. I will not release the vehicle to you or a shipping company, until funds have cleared my account in which I will then allow it for pick up. Car does NOT leave my possession until then. Once the car is picked up and/or funds have cleared my account, I can then sign over the title to you. I have no problem holding the car for any length of time for you to arrange pick up. Disclaimer: The car maybe be occasionally being driven on nice days therefore mileage may change slightly. The car is also for sale locally and this listing can end at any given time. The car is being “SOLD AS IS with NO WARRANTY.”
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS CAR!!! Contact me via eBay for more pictures or questions. |

24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two
Sun, Jun 19 2016We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.
Junkyard Gem: 1980 Pontiac Phoenix LJ Hatchback
Sun, Jan 22 2023The car-building world was rushing headlong into front-wheel-drive by the late 1970s, eager to reap the weight-saving and space-enhancing benefits of front-drive designs. General Motors designed an innovative FWD platform to replace the embarrassingly outdated Chevrolet Nova and its siblings, and that ended up being the Chevrolet Citation. The other US-market GM car divisions (except Cadillac) got a piece of the X-Body action, and the Pontiac version was called the Phoenix. Here's one of those first-year Phoenixes, not doing a very good job of rising from its snow-covered ashes in a Colorado self-service yard. Pontiac had used the Phoenix name on a luxed-up iteration of Pontiac's version of the Chevy Nova during the 1977-1979 model years, and so it made sense to apply that name to the Pontiac-ized Citation. Phoenix production continued through the 1984 model year (the Citation managed to hang on through 1985). Just to confuse everyone, the Nova name was revived in 1985, on a NUMMI-built Toyota Corolla. The LJ trim level was the nicest one for the 1980 Phoenix, and it included lots of trim upgrades and convenience features. However, even Phoenix LJ buyers had to pay extra for a three-speed automatic transmission instead of the base four-on-the-floor manual ($337, or about $1,291 in 2022 dollars). If you wanted air conditioning, that was another $564 and you had to get the $164 power steering and the $76 power brakes with it (total cost in 2022 dollars: $3,080). Affordable cars weren't so affordable back then, not once you started adding basic options. Both generations of the Phoenix had grilles influenced by those of the Pontiacs of earlier years. The base engine was the chugging 2.5-liter Iron Duke four-cylinder, but a 2.8-liter V6 was optional. This car has the V6, rated at 115 horsepower rather than the Duke's miserable 90 horses. The price tag: 225 bucks, or 862 inflation-adjusted 2022 bucks. The Phoenix was available just as a two-door coupe and five-door hatchback. The MSRP on this car would have started at $6,127, or around $23,469 now. That would have been a pretty good deal even after paying for the options, with the Phoenix's excellent mix of good interior space and solid fuel economy… but the Citation and its kin (the Oldsmobile Omega and Buick Skylark as well as the Phoenix) suffered from seemingly endless, highly publicized recalls and quality problems.
What car brand should come back?
Fri, Apr 7 2017Congratulations, wishful thinker! You've been granted one wish by the automotive genie or wizard or leprechaun or whoever has been gifted with that magical ability. You get to pick one expired, retired or fired automotive brand and resurrect it from its heavenly peace! But which one? That's a tough decision and not one to be made lightly. As we know from car history, the landscape is littered with failed brands that just didn't have what it took to cut it in the dog-eat-dog world of vehicle design, engineering and marketing. So many to choose from! Because I am not a car historian, I'll leave it to a real expert to present a complete list of history's automotive misses from which you can choose, if you're a stickler about that sort of thing. And since I'm most familiar with post-World War II cars and brands, that's what I'm going to stick to (although Maxwell, Cord and some others could make strong arguments). So, with the parameters established, let's get started, shall we? Hudson: I admit, I really don't know a lot about Hudson, except that stock car drivers apparently did pretty well with them back in the day, and Paul Newman played one in the first Cars movie. But really, isn't that enough to warrant consideration? Frankly, I think the Paul Newman connection is reason enough. What other actor who drove race cars was cooler? James Dean? Steve McQueen? James Garner? Paul Walker? But, I digress. That's a story for another day. Plymouth: As the scion of a Dodge family (my grandfather had a Dodge truck, and my mom had not one, but two Dodge Darts – the rear-wheel-drive ones with slant sixes in them, not the other one they don't make any more), I tend to think of Plymouth as the "poor man's Dodge." But then you have to consider the many Hemi-powered muscle cars sold under the Plymouth brand, such as the Road Runner, the GTX, the Barracuda, and so on. Was there a more affordable muscle car than Plymouth? When you place it in the context of "affordable muscle," Plymouth makes a pretty strong argument for reanimation. Oldsmobile: When I was a teenager, all the cool kids had Oldsmobile Cutlasses, the downsized ones that came out in 1978. At one point, the Olds Cutlass was the hottest selling car in the land, if you can believe that. Then everybody started buying Honda Civics and Accords and Toyota Corollas and Camrys, and you know the rest. But going back farther, there's the 442 – perhaps Olds' finest hour when it came to muscle cars.
