 Looks  & drives great, A Must See! Never seen snow, New tires, No accidents,  Non-smoker, Seats like new, Title in hand, Upgraded sound system, Very clean  interior, Well maintained

This car has  New front and rear  tires, 20" Nitto Invo on the Foose Legend Rims. New plugs, O2  sensors (all 4), belt and battery. I kept the old plugs with the car so you can  see it is running perfectly. New upgraded sway bar links and bushings. The paint  is perfect, just a few rock pits in the front bumper/skirt, shines like new.  Interior leather is also in like new condition. The  original owner upgraded the sound system will better speakers all around and it  would seem a subwoofer in the trunk. The subwoofer is gone, but all the wiring  is in place, high and low level signal wires, a subwoofer control wire, as well  as power wires for an amplifier. A new radio head unit  has been installed,  Pioneer Z3 CD DVD GPS 7" touchscreen with built in 40GB hard drive which holds  your favorite music ripped from each CD you play. Last thing is the headlights  are now HID as well as the Fog lights, really lights up the road.

If you do not know this car,  the 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO, let me give you what history I know. Released first  in '04 as a joint effort between GM and Holden of Australia, a big name in road  racing of sport coupes there, it was to bring a muscle car to compete with the  Mustang. It was only made for these three years, but was planned to move onto  the G6 platform when the recession hit and Pontiac was gone. In '04 it was  fitted with the LS1 Corvette engine.

In 2005 the car was upgraded to the LS2 engine, more  displacement and more horsepower. Unfortunately the car was a bit over powered,  for the 2005-6 have a problem in the 'Launch' and the rear wheels will have a  tendency to jutter, jump, shudder however you want to describe it. SO, if you  are looking at other 2005-6 production years, look for some resolution having  been install, most owners did nothing it seems. There are a couple of routes to  attempt a fix, I have heard that heavier axles works, but the solution on this  car does work. The decreases spring throw, -1.5", and the +2 spring rating  increase combined with Koni Shocks not only makes a smooth wheel spinning  launch, makes the  car handle really flat. Of course the 10.5" wide rims  and tires help that out  also.

The other thing to look for in these cars is the  seat corners, both front and back, that face the exterior of the car. I do not  know what Holden used to stitch these seats together, but it does not do well  with UV light. In most examples of this car, these seams threads have broken open, but not on  this car, all the seats are perfect except the rub on the drivers waist bolster  from getting in and out of the car. Also the headliners sometimes come  unattached from heat, but again, not this car. From the CarFAX, It spent its  life in North Carolina, a single owner, and from the looks of it, in a garage.  The owner may have been in the Armed Services, for there are periods on the  CarFAX where the car had no miles put on it. One thing is for sure, it was  pampered.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
