General Motors released the 1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 as part of a series built for model years 1998 to 2002. GM marked the end of the Firebird model with this special series and limited production to 2,000 vehicles

1999 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6 came with a 16-valve V-8 engine with Ram Air induction. This engine measured at 5.7 liters and 347 cubic inches. Horsepower measured at 320 at 5,200 rpm. Engine displacement measured at 5,665 cc.

This model clocks an estimated top speed of 165 miles per hour. Racing enthusiasts note that the car can go from zero to 60 miles per hour in 5.2 seconds with the manual transmission, and in 6.0 seconds with the automatic transmission. The zero-to-60 braking distance is 120 feet. EPA fuel economy for city driving originally measured 18 to 19 miles per gallon and 26 to 28 miles per gallon for highway driving.
The all-aluminum LS1 powerplant replaced the iron block LT1. Horsepower increased from 285 to 305 standard and from 305 to 320 for Ram Air Formulas and Trans Ams. Part of the Gen III family of engines, the LS1 was a brand new design that was developed with GM's sophisticated computer-modeling software.

It is comprised of a deep-skirt aluminum block with 6-bolt, cross-bolted main caps. Cast-in-place iron cylinder liners feature a bore of 3.90 inches and employ a cast nodular iron crank with undercut and rolled fillets and a stroke of 3.62 inches. The resulting displacement is 346 ci or 5.7 liters. Attached to the crank are powdered metal 6.1-inch connecting rods. The pistons are hypereutectic-cast aluminum flat-tops.

Few cars I've ever driven have gotten more attention. It has all of the raw American muscle power of a regular WS6 Firebird, Yes, the LS1 in the Trans Am and Camaro Z28 is identical to that of the C5 Corvette. GM released a special WS6 to mark the end of the Firebird, limited to 2000 cars. Equipped with Chevy's LS1 V8 and Ram Air system, the WS6 engine's power rating was bumped up from 320 hp to 325 hp in 2001. The Trans Am WS6 is a high performance muscle car.The 5.7L LS1 is leading-edge technology to tradition of the GM small-block V8,

A Pontiac Trans Am WS6 is a regular Trans Am with a performance package added. This vehicle was released in 1978. The performance package included an upgraded suspension. On later vehicles it also included a larger diameter sway bar, upgraded steering box, and upgraded tires and rims.  The basic shape of the Trans Am is more than a little aggressive, with bulging fenders, a front fascia with large foglamps and a hidden intake.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General 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.

Howard Stern latest in Seinfeld's passenger seat for CiCGC

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We'll be honest: the actual cars in Jerry Seinfeld's hit internet series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, typically take a back seat to the celebrities in the front row. Seinfeld usually throws in a few lines about his classic wheels in the first minute or so, and then moves on to the important business of sprightly conversation and pithy one-liners. It's great.
This time around, with legendary motormouth Howard Stern riding shotgun, the 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge that might have been a co-star, gets forgotten about almost completely. Instead, Stern spends a tremendous amount of screen time extolling the virtues of his therapy sessions, attempts to dive into Seinfeld's prowess as a lover and generally makes a nuisance of himself. Pretty much to plan, then.
Scroll below to hear Howard accuse Jerry of acting like Jesus, just before declaring himself the greatest radio personality in the history of the business.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How 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?
