1996 Olds Cutlass Supreme - 5 Pointz Art Car - Custom Paint - Under 21,000 Miles on 2040-cars

US $2,800.00
Year:1996 Mileage:20515

The "5 Pointz" Car is for sale. As seen in newspapers and on television, this excellently maintained 1996 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme was transformed by world famous graffiti artist Meres One into a billboard for the world famous (and recently destroyed) "aerosol art center" 5 Pointz (see picture of 5 Pointz in its glory).

The car is in very good condition, minimal rust, and YES, the odometer reads 20,515 miles. I'm the second owner and the first owner just drove it to and from work.

Features include:

Stereo with CD Player and Aux Input (for iPhone or iPod)
Almost New Engine (runs beautifully)
Automatic Transmission
Power Windows
Power Locks
Unique Paint Job (Note the 5 Pointz logo on the Hood and Meres One's Iconic Lightbulbs)
Cruise Control
Dancing Hula Girl on Dash

This car evokes love wherever it goes. People frequently want to be photographed with it and I have even had interest from a firm that rents cars for film shoots. I'll be happy to pass that contact along to the buyer (though Meres One's permission should be sought prior to using his art in this way).

I would never part with this car except that my new job will require something a little more conservative (sigh).

The car has very minor cosmetic issues (e.g. a missing knob from the AC and Hazard Lights) and will require a shot of AC refrigerant each year, but is in fantastic shape for a car of its age.

PLEASE NOTE: I am this vehicle's second owner, so the title I received still showed a lien from the finance company.  I have since retained a notarized letter from the finance company stating that the title is clean and the lien has been lifted.  (See photos of both documents)

Reach out with any questions.

Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

Ever since Gran Turismo 4, Jay Leno has had at least one of his cars included in the popular racing simulator (starting with the Tank Car), and more of his machines appears in Gran Turismo 6. They include this nose-heavy, front-wheel-drive V8-powered muscle car. Yes, that aptly describes a 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado - except Leno's is rear-wheel drive. And it has a Cadillac CTS-V race engine modified to pump out 1,070 horsepower.
For the latest Jay Leno's Garage episode, he takes his real Toronado out for a cruise and then drives the virtual one like he stole it, accruing some body damage along the way. Leno also drives the virtual supercar Mercedes-Benz designed for GT6, the AMG Vision Gran Turismo Concept that debuted at the LA Auto Show, along with the real one, which is a 1:1-scale model. The model is radio-controlled and equipped with a small electric motor, sufficient to move it on and off of auto show floors.
Head below to watch the episode, which includes a few words from GT6 creator Kazunori Yamauchi.

eBay Find of the Day: 1976 GMC Motorhome is a jolly green giant

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

If you have a need to relive the 1970s, then here is the vehicle for you. This groovy blast from the past is a 1976 GMC Motorhome currently for auction in Florida on eBay Motors, and it is one green machine - just not in the modern sense.
The seller claims that this beast has had just two owners and has covered a mere 61,308 miles in its decades on the road. It's reportedly never been restored or repainted and comes with all of the necessary books and manuals. A 7.5-liter (455-cubic-inch) Oldsmobile V8 with a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission powering the front wheels propels this far-out RV, and the double set of rear wheels out back use a self-leveling air suspension to provide a cushy ride.
The purported low miles and good condition really make this GMC a stand out, though. The exterior combination of lime stripes and beige with just a touch of green is like nothing else on the road today. Plus, the polished bumpers and wheels make it all pop. Inside, it's even better with monochromatic green upholstery and shag carpet. It features everything you'd ever need on a long trip, including a bathroom, kitchenette and lots of seating. The only hint of modernization is an HD TV next to the stove, but its size is a perfect fit for the hole there.

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.
