1985 Pontiac Fiero Gt V6 4 Speed Low Miles Loaded on 2040-cars
Palmyra, Virginia, United States
1985 Pontiac Fiero GT - loaded Street Survivor for sale I bought this car last fall, and have enjoyed it
tremendously (I had a Red/tan 2M4 in college but always wanted a GT). Draws a crowd, and the kids love it. Fantastic way to drive to work at low cost
- and a lot of fun! It has 49,900 miles ( I bought it with just over 40K). Completely loaded: ·
2.8L V6 Engine ·
4 Speed Manual Transmission (seriously who wants
an auto?) ·
A/C (with brand new compressor) ·
Tilt, cruise (works perfectly), intermittent
wipers ·
Power door windows and locks, mirrors, headlamp
doors - all work properly ·
Firebird CD stereo has replaced the old cassette
deck and has EQ and iPod input!!!! VERY RARE!!!! Same Pontiac orange backlighting - seamless
OEM look. CD and iPod in a Fiero without ruining vintage look! ·
New Pioneer 4x10 speakers, plus stock in
headrest. Killer sound. ·
Rare cassette storage option ·
New moonroof and door window gaskets ·
Replaced heater core, washer motor, brakes (new
slotted and drilled rotors, new low dust pads, rebuilt master cylinder, one
worn caliper rebuilt) ·
OEM wheels and tires for the purists (more than
60% tread) ·
The best steering wheel, the padded GT 3 spoke I bought it for $5000, and have put about $1500 of parts into
it. So my BIN is a very reasonable $5950
and the reserve is set at $5600. Will
not accept lowball offers. I will just
continue to enjoy the ride :) if I can't get a reasonable price. The very good ·
Non smoker interior is nearly mint ·
Great stereo set up with stock look ·
Super low miles ·
A lot of needed repairs done for you already ·
Everything works - even the headlamp motors
which is a common issue ·
A fill up is 8 gallons (holds 10) and will take
you 225 miles, which is 28 MPG. ·
I get over 25 even combined in town, with sports
car performance. ·
In VA, I have often filled up for a weeks worth
of driving for just over $20. Not many
$6000 cars YOU WANT TO DRIVE can do that. The not so good ·
The plastic panels have excellent paint, but the
steel engine lid paint is beginning to look tired, with some oxidizing and
orange peel. I plan to repaint if I keep
it over the winter. Lower aero panels
have some rubbed areas (damaged before me but not noticeable except up
close) that could be redone as well. ·
The hydraulic clutch is getting a little
tired. If you hold the clutch in a long
time (like at a long stop light) you notice it begin to engage. Not a problem in normal driving but a rebuilt
clutch master and slave (about $80 each plus time) would do the trick. I just don't leave the clutch down for more
than about 15 seconds and no problems.... ·
The headliner is looking tough, ditto on my
desire to replace over winter. I may
have it done before sale.....but no promises. ·
Two areas of interior dash paint could use a
touch up (base brown beginning to show over the light brown paint. This is a two tone piece that is intended to
have the base brown in some areas that are accented by areas painted by light -
easy touch up with correct paint). Great value at a great price. Selling to buy a tractor (I know I know - should probably keep her but Mrs says she's gotta go first!) $200 deposit required within 48 hours - non-refundable. Come drive it and if you don't want it that is all it will cost you to walk away, with positive feedback. Balance due in 7 days or at delivery whichever comes first. IF not picked up in 7 days it will be relisted and resold, but if you need time to pick it up that can be arranged with full payment.

Airbag recall adds 85k Pontiac Vibes to tally
Fri, 13 Jun 2014The repairs needed for the faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata continue to expand. Toyota initially announced a recall of 766,300 vehicles equipped with the bad part on June 11 as a followup to a campaign from 2013. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened a preliminary evaluation into five automakers who also used the component in their models. Now, NHTSA has released the official announcement of the latest Toyota recall listing 844,277 affected cars, including the newly added 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe.
While NHTSA's document didn't include a model-by-model breakdown, General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler estimated to Autoblog that roughly 85,000 Vibes in the US would be covered under the latest recall. Like the rest of the affected models, the airbag inflator could rupture in a crash causing the bag not to work correctly, possibly spraying metal fragments at the occupant.
Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight told Autoblog that the reason for the disparity between the earlier press release and NHTSA document was that Toyota was continuing to comb through VINs to create a list of affected vehicles. The original number was an estimate of that process at the time. Scroll down to the recall report from NHTSA.
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 knew about fatal Chevy ignition problem decade before recall
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Well, this is not good for General Motors. Following a report last week that GM was recalling 778,000 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 compacts over concerns that the ignition could switch out of the "run" position without warning, USA Today reports that the Detroit-based behemoth knew about the issue, which affected 2005 to 2007 Cobalts (the Cobalt shown above and in the gallery is from 2010) and 2007 Pontiac G5s, all the way back in 2004.
The information comes from a deposition in a civil lawsuit against GM, obtained by USA Today, which claims that a GM engineer experienced the issue while the then-new model was undergoing testing. The issue was "solved" when a technical service bulletin was issued in 2005, informing dealers to install a snap-on key cover on the cars of customers who complained about the issue. According to the Cobalt's program engineering manager, Gary Altman, the cover was an "improvement, it was not a fix to the issue."
The case where the depositions were made was from 2010, and involved Brooke Melton, a 29-year-old pediatric nurse in Georgia who was killed on her birthday. At the time, police claimed she was going too fast on a wet, rural road, although it later came out through the black box that her car's ignition had come out of the "run" position at least three seconds before the accident (the max amount of time a black box records before a wreck), disabling her airbags, power steering and anti-lock brakes. According to USA Today, police said Melton was "traveling too fast for the roadway conditions," although it's impossible to know if she'd have been in the wreck, which injured the occupants of another vehicle, had her 2005 Chevy not shut off. GM settled the Melton family's case, although the details remain confidential.
