Asking $33,000 OBO ( Subject to Dutch Auction ) All Reasonable Offers Considered 301 Automatic Cloth InteriorMileage as of this date is original 5,946 Miles. There is not much to say about this car other than the fact that it is like a brand new 1980 Trans Am. Period. Delivered new by Pontiac to Willis Motors in Canton Ohio. The factory plastic is still on the seats and back floor as if this date. Headliner cloth has just started to sag a bit this spring. That’s it. An easy fix. I honestly cannot think of a single solitary thing wrong with this car. Under the hood? Like new Paint all around ? Like new. Glass? Like new. Underside of car? Like new. Interior? Like new. This car is every bit as clean ( or maybe even cleaner ) than the 900 mile 1981 car. What doesn’t work or function? Nothing. It all operates just like…… you guessed it…….. like brand new. I have not tried the AC though! Last Ontario owner was a fine elderly man in Mount Albert, Ontario near Toronto. Mr. Norris Morton. Norris told me that he bought the car at the 1993 Toronto car auction as an investment. The car is now back in Ohio. 1980 Trans Am’s were small block automatics and have a following from guys and gals from that era. What obviously makes this Trans Am so rare and valuable is that it is a time capsule from 1980. Days when life were much simpler. Yes. I know your car is faster. Yes. I know that this is a 301 and not a Super Duty. I understand. But, this is a brand new 34 year old car. This car is simply amazing as you can imagine. Enjoy the pics and the video. This car will end up in a collection somewhere that covets museum pcs and that is exactly what this car is. A museum pc. Contact Information Call or email me ( John Shaw ) about the cars. Do not call Tom please. Tom can assist you in seeing the cars since he is always there. I will discuss price and any other information that you want to know about the cars. Thank you John ----------------------------------------- John Shaw ...............

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford 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.
GM recalling 778,000 Cobalts and G5s, six deaths reported
Thu, 13 Feb 2014General Motors has announced that it will be recalling 778,562 compact cars after six people were killed in accidents, partially due to the airbags' failure to deploy. An issue with the ignition switch is causing the airbag issues, as well as causing the engine and other components to shut off without warning. The recall covers the 2005 to 2007 model year Chevrolet Cobalt and 2007 Pontiac G5. (Note that the Cobalt pictured above is a 2009 model.)
According to a report from Automotive News, a number of factors can cause the ignition to switch out of the run position, including weights on the key ring, rough or bumpy roads or other "jarring" events. Any of these situations could lead to some vehicle components not functioning properly.
There have been five fatal front-impact crashes that took the lives of six people, although as a GM spokesman noted, all five of the crashes happened off road and at high speed. In each of these cases, though, the lack of airbags wasn't the only lethal factor - alcohol and failure to wear a seat belt also played a role. Outside of the fatal accidents, there have been 17 other crashes where airbags didn't deploy. It's unclear if any of these crashes were caused by the engine shutting off.
Saturn Vue ignition switch leads to new group of GM recalls totaling 312k
Fri, 08 Aug 2014General Motors has another spate of recalls to announce. This time they cover 312,280 vehicles worldwide, including 269,041 of in the US, in a total of six campaigns. In 2014, the automaker has recalled 29,079,765 vehicles worldwide, with 25,754,356 of those in the US.
The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada. It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
