I've decided to let go of my firebird. I have a baby on the way and a new job that doesn't allow me to drive it as much as I'd like. I've babied it the whole time I've had it, always parked in the garage, and I never drive it in the rain. It's a fully optioned '97 Formula with the LT1 V8, 152k miles, automatic tranny with 21k miles on rebuild, shifts firm, leather seats, t-tops, '02 Trans Am honeycomb tail lights. It's all stock except for the full exhaust that I spent $1100 for a few months ago (sounds amazing). Runs and drives great, very reliable, lots of power. Maintenance always up to date. You can definitely tell that the car has been cared for.
List of new parts within the past six months (I have receipts for everything):
-New Pacesetter Long tube headers
-New Pacesetter offroad y-pipe w/o cats
-New Hooker Aerochamber cat-back kit
-New Energy Suspension Polyurethane motor mounts
-New coolant temp sensor
-New AC Delco spark plugs
-New EGR purge solenoid
-New battery
-New front O2 sensors
-New rear O2 sensor simulators
The interior is in great shape for its age. Typical wear and tear that almost all these f-bodies have, tear in driver seat, headliner has a few small separations, crack on the dash. The driver side window motor is not working but I have a new one in the box that goes with the car which also has a lifetime warranty. AC has a leak and compressor makes a noise occasionally but blows cold when charged. Tires are in good shape and no curb rash on the wheels. Nose has light fading as most do although its nowhere near as bad as others. One small crack on passenger side of rear bumper. The door panels don't have any cracks like most others do. All in all, this is a very solid, nice driving, clean LT1 car that is ready for some cruises. Unfortunately I don't have any time for it and I'll be sad to see it go. I have much more into it than what I'm asking. Clean blue title in my name. If you have any questions or would like to see the car, please message me.

How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
