1986 Pontiac Fiero 2m6 on 2040-cars
United States
|
1986 Pontiac Fiero SE with approximately 70,000 miles, northwest owned and nearly always garaged. 2m6 (2.8L Six w/ 4-speed manual).
Very clean inside and out, no tears, no dents, just minor aging. One sail panel is cracked, I have a replacement in box. Factory options include GT wing, GT gauges (oil pressure, volts), Cruise, AM/FM/Cassette w/ subwoofer (cone is torn), AC (still works), remote trunk release, delay wipers, tilt wheel. Manual windows and locks. Both headlights work. Upgrades include K&N air filter and high-output headlights. Cat replaced 3 years ago. Temp gauge wiring mod applied- gauge no longer 'pegs' when switched on, and dash overtemp light works. Transmission shifts easy, synchros work fine, and clutch works fine. Factory maintenance and service manuals included, cover included (has a couple small holes), new brake pins & pads included. Now the bad news- leaks a little oil at the axle seals, and exhaust manifold may have a small crack. Windshield has a crack extending across about 50% of it. I just don't have the time, money, and room to keep it and tinker with it the way I'd like. Fun and fast, it's an absolute joy to drive-- you're connected to the road with all your senses, driving a sports car the way they were intended to be driven. Super road feel at the wheel, lively response to the gas, and no ABS, no power steering, and no traction control taking away your fun. It'll understeer until it decides to oversteer, it'll spin up the tires, and it'll put a huge smile on your face. If you've never owned a Fiero you ought to try it! Bonus: Washington State emission test no longer required for cars this old. Terms: Pick up only, in the greater Seattle area. Cash preferred. Cashier's check ok but buyer must allow time for check to clear. Car has current tabs and may be driven away. Paypal deposit w/in 48 hours will hold the car for one week from date of deposit. |

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.
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.
