2009 Pontiac G8 Base Sedan Excellent Condition 33.8k Magentic Gray, V6 on 2040-cars
Dayton, Ohio, United States
|
Extremely clean, loaded 1 owner car with only 33,807 miles! Runs and drives perfectly. Magnetic gray metallic, black leather interior. DOHC V6, 5 spd auto w/sport and manual modes, RWD, independent rear suspension, 4-wheel discs, factory dual exhausts, and traction control. Blaupunkt premium audio with in dash 6 CD changer, remote start, remote trunk latch, XM satellite radio, and OnStar. Heated seats, moonroof, dual zone climate control, many more bells and whistles. Original rubber is still good, estimate about 25-30% remaining. Powertrain warranty good through Jan 2015, corrosion warranty though Jan 2016.
This car is in perfect shape with the exception of the following: - 3 tiny rock chips on the front end that can be touched up very easily - Very small scuff on the edge of two of the rims that you need to be about 2-3 feet away to notice It is an extremely solid, great-driving car. The DOHC V6 has really fine performance without the thirst or insurance penalty of the V8. The car is absolutely a joy to drive whether interstate cruising or more twisty roads. Extremely responsive handling and smooth change of direction. I am the original owner of this car and am only parting with it because I am moving out of state and don't want to have it shipped there. The AutoCheck report shows 2 owners; however, we retitled it under my wife's ownership in her home of record state, North Dakota (the title event showing change from FL to ND title), as she is active duty military and we didn't want to keep dealing with vehicle re-registration when we moved. |

Junkyard Gem: 1996 Pontiac Grand Am SE Coupe
Thu, Jun 22 2023The Grand Am was the best-selling Pontiac model in the United States for every year of the 1990s, and it outsold most of its N-Body platform-mates (including the Chevrolet Corsica/Beretta) during nearly all of that decade. A sporty-looking compact with two or four doors, the Grand Am offered true 1990s radness—and, in some cases, respectable performance — at a good price. Today's Junkyard Gem is a nicely preserved example of the facelifted 1996 Grand Am, found in a Denver-area car graveyard. This is an SE Coupe with base engine and transmission, the most affordable Grand Am available in 1996. List price was $13,499, or about $26,523 in 2023 dollars. The factory-issued Monroney sheet for this car was still inside, so we can see that the original buyer got the car at Bob Ruwart Motors in Wheatland, Wyoming (about 175 miles up I-25 from this Pontiac's final parking spot), and paid a total of $16,054 ($31,543 in today's money) after the cost of options and the destination charge. The '96 Grand AM SE buyer had to pay extra for cruise control, air conditioning, power windows, rear glass defogger and other features we now take for granted on new cars. The base engine was the 2.4-liter Twin Cam four cylinder, a member of the screaming Oldsmobile Quad 4 family. This one was rated at 150 horsepower and 155 pound-feet. A 3.1-liter V6 with 155 horses and 185 pound-feet was an option. If you got the V6 in your '96 Grand Am, however, you couldn't get a manual transmission. This car has a proper five-speed manual, which made for fun driving with the high-revving Twin Cam engine in a machine weighing just 2,802 pounds (which is quite a bit less than what the current Honda Civic weighs). It traveled just over 160,000 miles during its 27 years on the road. The body and interior were still in fairly good condition when the car arrived here, so we can assume that some expensive mechanical problem doomed this car. Perhaps the original clutch wore out and the owner didn't consider it worth replacing. After all, a mid-1990s Detroit two-door with a transmission most people can't drive isn't worth much these days. Though nobody knew it when this car was new, the Grand Am would be gone in nine years and Pontiac itself would get the axe five years after that. It makes the ordinary extraordinary. Husbands and wives would argue for 12 hours over who got to drive the Grand Am, if we are to believe this ad. Proud sponsor of the 1996 Olympic team.
This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod
Fri, 21 Feb 2014There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.
