2006 Pontiac Solstice Base Convertible 2-door 2.4l on 2040-cars
Friendswood, Texas, United States
Here for sale is my 2006 Pontiac Solstice. This is going no reserve. I bought this car mid 08 when it had 24k miles on it. As you can see from the milage now (51542) it has not been driven much. that being said this is a daily driver but the commute is very short. I'm not going to sit here and tell you its show room perfect it's an 06 and has been used. There are some light scratches in the paint a ding or two, the headlights are a little faded and there is a chip in the wind shield. all these are pictured. also the protective films that keep the top from scratching the rear lid are faded. these peel off and new ones can be fixed but really you can't see them when the top is up. The service airbag warning is on do to a faulty sensor under the passenger seat. This is super common on these cars and the chevy cobalts and i'm sure gm will have a recall for those too very soon. It only effects the passenger air bag so i never had it fixed. so thats all the bad stuff.
The good. This car is super fun to drive and it is the closest modern car to the old british sports cars. Rear wheel drive, front engine, manual 5 speed fun. KandN filter. Tires are like new speed rated run flats. The brakes have been uprated to EBC black pads and slotted cross drilled rotors. These were installed at 50k. This car has spent its life in Texas and has no rust. A/C blows ice cold and the heat will melt your face. Oil has been changed with synthetic ever 3k miles no excuses. I really love driving this car and would keep it o drop a LT1 in it later on but looking out on my driveway I think 6 cars is a few too many. All the dents and cracks are in the pictures so take a look. If you need to see anything else just ask. Also if you have any questions please ask. Again this will be a no reserve auction so bid away. Good luck. |

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.
CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
