2004 HOLDEN MONARO GTO

 Only 377 manual transmission Cosmos Purple GTO's were ever produced.

  Genuine Australian GM components were used in the conversion:

  • Monaro front bar (bumper cover), complete with HID fog lamps and grille
  • Monaro side repeater lamps
  • Holden Senator tail lamps and garnish
  • Custom Holden chrome wheel logos
  • Monaro door sills with Holden lion
  • Steering wheel Holden emblem is a reproduction
  • Shaved  and filled spoilerless decklid,  blended to match
  • Twin scoop hood painted to match
  • 18" GTO wheel upgrade,  Bridgestone Potenza RE760 tires
  • Reprogrammed cluster to show Lion on start up  and  shift light activated
  •  Australian JHP Option 4 (GMM street) shifter was fitted with a short lever machined to accept the stock knob.

 Other than the above mentioned, the car is completely stock.

 This car is in excellent condition, no issues. Runs and drives like new. No exaggeration! Very clean interior, purple leather still smells new. 28000 miles. No excessive driveline lash like most others, no rattles. Original springs don't sag.  No split seams in the rear seats. No door dings. Wheels although not perfect are free from any curb rash. The sole detractions are a couple of stone chips ons the hood and inevitable minute scratches in the clearcoat.

Owners manual, radio code card, silver limited edition brochure and even window sticker are included.

 I also have the original flat hood (which I prefer) and the purple spoiler that was hideously perched on the trunk lid (which I obviously don't!)

Cars of this nature are commonly abused, blown up  and  more often than not totalled.  Many are salvaged .  Finding a pampered, carefully driven example is proving to be increasingly difficult.  The rare color and Monaro attire only enhance the probability of a unique one off GTO. The car is locally listed.

 As much as I like this car, I seldom drive it anymore due to life and  health issues. Perhaps you can enjoy driving it as much as I have.

Please note: In this listing, I have provided an honest personal discription. However, this does not constitute any written or implied warranty or guarantee of any sort. The car is listed in AS IS condition.  Any further inquiries can be addressed via ebay contact email. Please allow adequate time for a response. Local interested parties please request appointment to see the car. PLEASE do not waste my time and yours unless you have the funds in order, or permission from whomever runs your life...

LONG DISTANCE BUYERS PLEASE CONTACT ME IN ADVANCE FOR PAYMENT DETAILS.  NO CHECKS OF ANY SORT WILL BE ACCEPTED.  CASH ONLY FOR LOCAL PICK UP.

2020 Porsche 911 Speedster spied with an angry driver

Wed, Feb 13 2019

Porsche gave us details and showed us a concept of the 911 Speedster at the Paris Motor Show. Today, we bring you spy shots of what appears to be the production version of that concept with a few changes on board. They're rather minimal modifications, but the Speedster's driver appears especially angry with our spy photographer as he extends his middle finger directly toward the camera. Sorry, not sorry, Mr. Test Driver. Public testing of pre-production cars always comes with photo risks, and Porsches tend to attract more attention than others. You'll notice what appears to be a Cayenne Coupe prototype we've previously spotted running around with the 911. The Speedster Concept we saw in Paris had epic retro mirrors and fuel cap on the front hood, but both those design touches are absent from this pre-production car. It's tougher to see, but we lost the vents in between the two humps, as well. Everything else appears to have made it to production-spec. We can't say we're surprised these concept car features probably won't show up on the production car, but it is a tad deflating. You'll notice the Speedster is based-off the 991.2 generation of 911 and not the new 992. Porsche did a similar thing when the 997 generation was coming to an end with a Speedster model paying tribute to that car's life. The chassis is said to utilize parts from the 911 GT3, and the wonderful naturally aspirated flat-six engine gets carried over from that car, too. Porsche didn't specify if power will be exactly the same as the GT3, but we'll be expecting about 500 horsepower and a 9,000 rpm redline. We were told the six-speed manual would be offered on the Speedster in Paris, too. Let's just say that we strongly approve of that combination. Production will be limited to only 1,948 cars and begin in the first half of this year. We'll expect a reveal with a full spec breakdown soon, possibly for the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.

Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac G6

Sat, Sep 12 2020

What makes a discarded car a gem? Sometimes it's a car we all agree is very cool, and other times it's a car that tells us something about automotive history. Today's Junkyard Gem is the latter type: one of the very last Pontiacs sold, before The General shut out the lights forever on the storied marque after 84 years. The G6 was Pontiac's Epsilon-platform-based car, sibling to the Chevy Malibu, Saturn Aura, and Saab 9-3 (plus a bunch of Europe-only machinery). The very last Pontiac ever built was a white 2010 G6 sedan like this one (all '10 G6s were sedans, the coupe and convertible having been nixed in 2009), though that car was built in January of 2010 and this one came off the line in July of 2009. They build Bolts at the Orion Assembly plant these days. The higher-zoot G6s came with V6s or even V8s, but this car has "fleet machine" written all over it and has the base 2.4-liter Ecotec four-banger making 164 horsepower. Pontiac shoppers in the United States could buy the Vibe as a 2010 model as well, while Mexican Pontiac dealerships also sold new G2s (known as the Spark here) that year. The G6 was The Final Pontiac, though, bookending a run that began with the 1926 Pontiac Six. This one will go to its grave with the original owner's manual still inside. Even the cheapest 2010 G6s came with an AUX jack for the radio, a feature that was still maddeningly hard to find in rental cars a decade ago. This content is hosted by a third party.

GM knew about fatal Chevy ignition problem decade before recall

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Well, this is not good for General Motors. Following a report last week that GM was recalling 778,000 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 compacts over concerns that the ignition could switch out of the "run" position without warning, USA Today reports that the Detroit-based behemoth knew about the issue, which affected 2005 to 2007 Cobalts (the Cobalt shown above and in the gallery is from 2010) and 2007 Pontiac G5s, all the way back in 2004.
The information comes from a deposition in a civil lawsuit against GM, obtained by USA Today, which claims that a GM engineer experienced the issue while the then-new model was undergoing testing. The issue was "solved" when a technical service bulletin was issued in 2005, informing dealers to install a snap-on key cover on the cars of customers who complained about the issue. According to the Cobalt's program engineering manager, Gary Altman, the cover was an "improvement, it was not a fix to the issue."
The case where the depositions were made was from 2010, and involved Brooke Melton, a 29-year-old pediatric nurse in Georgia who was killed on her birthday. At the time, police claimed she was going too fast on a wet, rural road, although it later came out through the black box that her car's ignition had come out of the "run" position at least three seconds before the accident (the max amount of time a black box records before a wreck), disabling her airbags, power steering and anti-lock brakes. According to USA Today, police said Melton was "traveling too fast for the roadway conditions," although it's impossible to know if she'd have been in the wreck, which injured the occupants of another vehicle, had her 2005 Chevy not shut off. GM settled the Melton family's case, although the details remain confidential.
