2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Gtp Sedan 4-door 3.8l on 2040-cars
Valley Village, California, United States
Condition: I believe the condition is "fair", which KBB says it is worth about $4,000. If it was in "Excellent" condition is would be worth $4,800. As I mentioned earlier-
KNOWN ISSUES: Driver's side window does not open. Key gets stuck in ignition (known issue with Pontiac Grand Prix vehicles) but a screwdriver can be used to easily release (free with vehicle purchase!). Heat does not work. Rear view mirror needs replacement. Scratches on front bumper right hand side (can be seen in photos). Front right headlight has surface cracks. Interior door panel on front passenger side is pulling away from door slightly. Clock does not work. Bose sound system doesn't play from all speakers. Mild hail damage on vehicle exterior when transported from NJ to AZ. This car needs some TLC to get it back in optimal condition. However, when the issues are addressed it is a brilliant car. There are barely any miles on the car considering its age, so it should last for many many more years. Selling to purchase an SUV. Features: The Heads up Display is awesome as you know exactly how fast you are going without having to look away from the road. I hate driving other vehicles without this feature! The vehicle has premium wheels. Also, the tires probably only have a few thousand miles on them. The supercharger makes this vehicle very fund to drive and seeing the "Boost Meter" in the dash makes it all the more fun. The leather interior is in great condition (no scratches, cuts, etc.). I installed a K&N Engine Air Filter in the vehicle a few years ago. Air filter can be cleaned with their cleaning solution and will last for the life of the vehicle. I replaced the supercharger engine oil a 3 years ago and very little mileage has been put on since then. Also, I purchased premium floor mats that say "Supercharged Grand Prix" (can be seen in photos). History: This car has had two owners. The vehicle was purchased in NJ by my grandfather. I inherited the vehicle upon his passing, where it was shipped to AZ. This car has very low mileage!! I know it sounds like the car has a lot of problems, but it runs great and that is the most important thing. Also, I am being completely honest with all of the issues that I know about the car. If you are interested in the vehicle, but would like to see it in person feel free to email me for arrangements. |

Junkyard Gem: 1997 Pontiac Sunfire SE Convertible
Sun, Mar 5 2023For the entire 24-year production run of the GM J platform (best known for the Chevrolet Cavalier), the Pontiac Division offered new J-Body cars for sale in the United States. First there was the J2000, followed in quick succession by the 2000, 2000 Sunbird and Sunbird. The Sunbird stuck around until the Cavalier got a major redesign for the 1995 model year, at which point Pontiac changed the car's name to Sunfire. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of those early Sunfires, a top-of-the-line SE convertible with the optional big engine and manual transmission. The Sunfire was an extremely close sibling to the same-year Cavalier (by the late 1980s, all the other US-market GM divisions had dropped their J-cars, which meant no more Skyhawks, Cimarrons or Firenzas), quite difficult to distinguish from its near-twin at a glance. The base engine for the 1997 Sunfire convertible was the pushrod 2.2-liter straight-four that powered so many J-bodies of the 1990s. That engine produced just 120 gnashing, valve-floating horsepower, not much by late-1990s standards. For a mere 450 additional dollars, however, the 2.4-liter Twin Cam engine and its high-revving 150 horses could be had by '97 Sunfire buyers. That's what's in this car. This is one of the members of the Oldsmobile Quad 4 family, though some fanatics will yell at you if you apply that name to the versions that don't have big QUAD 4 lettering cast into the valve cover. This is the most powerful engine ever used in production Sunfires. For 1997, Pontiac offered a four-speed automatic transmission for no extra cost in the Sunfire convertible. Buyers of all other Sunfire models that year had to shell out either $550 or $810 ($1,026 or $1,511 in 2023 dollars) for a two-pedal rig. That means that the buyer of this car really wanted the five-speed manual transmission (or just hungered for the $810 credit offered in the fine print for takers of the manual). Plenty of free-breathing engine power, five-on-the-floor driving enjoyment and the open skies above. What a fun car! This one made it to nearly 180,000 miles. For this car with the Quad 4 under the hood and a clutch pedal on the floor, the MSRP was $18,539 (about $34,584 today). Its Cavalier LS convertible twin with the same engine/transmission setup cost $17,365 ($32,394 now). This car has a bunch of options, including the 15" Rally aluminum wheels, so the out-the-door price would have been higher. The last year for the Sunfire was 2005, same as the Cavalier.
GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected
Tue, 20 May 2014General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years
GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
