I bought this Trans Am out in Littleton, CO in 2007 and have kept it covered or in a garage ever since, it had 67000 miles on it when I bought it. I have babied it and only driven it in nice weather. It is blue(2002 Dodge Electric Blue) with gold phoenix decals, t-tops. Body is in fantastic shape with only a few minor surface rust spots underneath. This car currently has 70,048 miles on it. Engine and Transmission have been completely rebuilt with less than 1,000 miles on them. Engine is a Pontiac 455 and transmission is a TH400. The interior is all original and in pretty good shape. The car runs and sounds great! Since I have owned this car I have also had the following work done with receipts for it as well: -Engine rebuilt. - At Aces Auto Engine Supply in Colorado Springs in 2009. -Transmission rebuilt - At Aces Auto Engine Supply in Colorado Springs in 2009. -Gas tank, pulled, cleaned, fuel lines flushed and cleaned. -New Electric Holley Fuel pump. -New upper and lower ball joints. -New sway bar bushings and links. - The rest of this work was done in early 2008.

Also: -The wheels are American Racing Torque Thrust, 16'. -Tires have plenty of tread left on them. -A new set of headers in the box will go with the car (currently has headers that are in great shape, some of the wrapping is coming off though). - Dyno tuned by RPM MotorSports in Garner NC, it has 262.31 Horsepower, 352.48 Torque (this was done a few months ago, I have the dyno sheet).

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am
Mon, 13 May 2013No, you didn't read our title wrong. This is a 2013 model year Trans Am, and yes, that is a Pontiac logo affixed to the front of the car. But don't bother dialing up your local General Motors dealership just yet. This is the new Hurst Edition Trans Am created by the Trans Am Depot located in Tallahassee, FL. Having spent a number of years restoring early Trans Am models, the crew at Trans Am Depot finally did what many Pontiac enthusiasts wish GM would have done - create a modern Trans Am using the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro.
As the former owner of a 1977 model, I've been wanting to check out Trans Am Depot ever since I first saw the company have American Choppers build a trio of motorcycles inspired by its Pontiac remakes. So I jumped at the chance to head to Florida's capital city to visit the shop and drive its latest creation, the new Hurst Edition Trans Am. As a collaboration with Hurst, this car made its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show and then popped up again on our radar with a cheesy yet perfectly fitting video back in March.
Driving Notes
Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
