2004 Pontiac Gto Ghoat 5.7 Ls1 Ls2 Ls3 Corvette Engine Black On Black Clean!!! on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
One
look at the car, and you know the brand-new 2004 Pontiac GTO isn't General
Motors business as usual. When word leaked out
that Pontiac--now under the stewardship of another octane-loving visionary, GM
Chairman Bob Lutz--would be unveiling an all-new GTO, some 30 years after the
retirement of the original, the regulars around the MT water cooler
immediately weighed in with predictions. "It'll be about as subtle as a
Jerry Bruckheimer movie," said one. "Probably pretty rough around the
edges," opined another. "Bet it breathes fire," offered a third. That was before a
gleaming 2004 GTO showed up at our Los Angeles HQ--and proved
that our crystal ball had been unplugged all along. Surprise #2: The new GTO
looks nothing like a jukebox on wheels. True, the Yellow Jacket paint scheme on
our test car was bright enough to give George Hamilton a sunburn, but the
bodywork is as clean and sleek as a modern Euro coupe's. This may not be the
most memorable shape behind today's showroom glass, but we applaud Pontiac's
decision to skip the bolt-on body cladding and the shaving-mirror chrome
wheels--indeed, the body is entirely free of "I'm a musclecar"
costume. Even the small rear wing looks appropriate, lending just the right
sporty finish to the tail. In fact, the GTO is so tastefully subdued, it'll
surely disappoint those expecting the Vin Diesel treatment. Yet the muscle is
there for those who appreciate subtlety. Check out the ride height, for
instance. When have you seen a factory General Motors product so rakishly low
to the ground--or sporting such narrow tire-to-body gaps? Part of the explanation,
of course, is that the GTO is no ordinary Pontiac. The car is based on the
Monaro, a popular and athletic rear-drive coupe built by GM subsidiary Holden
in Australia. And, in fact, all GTOs will be assembled Down Under. Starting
this month, Pontiac will import roughly 18,000 annually at an expected base
price of $33,000 (final figures had not yet been announced at press time). Surprise #3: The cabin has
the sporty elegance of a BMW's. Four large analog gauges (wearing faces
color-coordinated with the exterior paint) lie in a large pod behind the wheel;
the dials and much of the interior are trimmed with a classy satin-nickel finish
(as are the drilled pedals). The four-spoke steering wheel (with integrated
audio controls) feels good in your hands and is infinitely adjustable for tilt
and telescope--something we've been nagging GM to do for years. The center
stack houses straightforward climate controls and that Blaupunkt audio
system--a 200-watt, 10-speaker affair with in-dash six-disc CD changer. There's
not a blob of bling-bling marring the cool, businesslike ambiance. Your $500
aluminum attache case will look right at home here.
This car is in great shape. Just look at the pictures and judge for yourself. The vehicle is mechanically sound and the interior looks nice. The engine sounds great, it handles and drives superbly and has no problem developing high speeds. Car runs straight as an arrow and tires do not pull in any direction. It has some wear on the body, front bumper mainly and gas lit is missing, but other than that it seams to be in great shape. The car can be exported, transferred and registered in any state.

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Pontiac Fiero 2M4
Sun, Oct 8 2023The mid-engined, plastic-bodied Pontiac Fiero two-seater caused great excitement when it hit the streets as a 1984 model, then became something of an embarrassment for GM when its design flaws became clear to the car-buying public. Still, when a V6 engine became available for 1985, followed by a fastback roof for 1986, the air of Pontiac Excitement around the Fiero lingered to a certain extent. We took a look at a discarded '86 Fiero GT with both the 2.8-liter V6 and the fastback body last year, and now we'll take a look at an example of the econo-commuter four-cylinder notchback version from the same year. Pontiac used the 2M4 designation (standing for two seats, mid-engine, four cylinders) on four-cylinder Fieros, while the six-cylinder cars were known as 2M6s. 2M4 decals went on four-banger Fieros for the 1984-1986 model years, while 2M6 decals seem to have been applied less consistently to the V6 cars of that period. During the early development period of the car that became the Fiero, the idea was that it would be a nimble sports car with a lightweight engine. Then the plan shifted, with the Fiero intended to be a gas-sipping commuter. When the car finally hit showrooms, it was a lot heavier than intended, it had a Chevy Citation front suspension in the back plus a Chevette front suspension, and its engine was the low-revving, weighty Iron Duke 2.5-liter straight-four. The Duke was about the least sports-car-appropriate four-cylinder engine The General could dredge up from his parts bins, but it was cheap and there was no shortage of production capacity. By the time the Fiero came out, the Iron Duke had been renamed the Tech 4. This one was rated at 92 horsepower and 132 pound-feet. The V6 Fieros get all the press today, but plenty of the Duked versions were sold (amazingly, the Chevrolet Camaro was available with Iron Duke power from 1982 through 1986). The emissions sticker tells us that this was a California-market car, rather than the "49-state" model the rest of the country got. California-specific emissions hardware added $99 to this car's price ($277 in 2023 dollars). While this car is a base model, the original buyer loaded it with options. The transmission is a three-speed automatic, priced at $465 (about $1,303 in 2023 dollars). A five-speed manual was standard equipment on the 1986 Fiero, though the old-fashioned four-speed manual was still available for a $50 credit ($140 now).
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
Autoblog Classifieds finds: 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT
Tue, May 15 2018Autoblog's free Readers' Used Car Classifieds section is a great place to list your car for sale, and because these are readers, they often list really interesting cars. Occasionally we find interesting listings, and tell you what's special about them. This 1987 Pontiac Fiero was listed for sale at the time of this writing, but if the listing expires by the time you read this, feel free to browse for other great finds. Thirty years after General Motors stopped building it, the Pontiac Fiero might have finally emerged from the darkness. First, it was a humble commuter car that just happened to be a mid-engined coupe, then it was a re-skinnable basis for Fierorraris or other slightly strange kit cars, and then it made some Worst Cars of All Time lists due to its econobox ingredients, including its Chevy Citation suspension parts. But after a few decades, even the most mediocre car will become interesting as most of the examples built have been run into the ground; why not then the Fiero? The story of the Fiero is paralleled by a number of GM products, as it improved constantly the longer it was built, and by the time of the last model years it was quite decent indeed. And then the plug was pulled. The Fiero might not be a Toyota MR2 or even a Fiat X1/9, but it was made in two body styles, the notchback and the fastback, the latter of which looks especially good now. The Fiero also remains quite affordable, and the plastic body panels do not rust, unlike with the two aforementioned cars. This 1987 car advertised for sale at Autoblog Classifieds does not yet benefit from the 1988 cars' improved suspension, but thanks to its low, low 47,000-mile odometer reading, it looks to be in tip-top shape. The automatic transmission is just the three-speed affair, though, rendering the V6 car here more of a cruiser than a fiery hot canyon carver. Perhaps that has contributed to its good condition, along with the lack of possibly leaky T-tops. Could the Fiero have aged better than your Hall & Oates tapes?
