The car runs and drives flawlessly, with excellent start-up, idle quality and overall drivability - it's a car you could drive easily to work every day and embarrass unsuspecting supercar owners on the way home. In fact, this Solstice has been on several Hot Rod Power Tour drives with excellent dependability and it's capable of 20+ mpg, if you keep your foot out of it - which is almost impossible! It was featured on the cover of Pontiac Enthusiast magazine, too.
To achieve 630 hp with reliability, the LS7 was rebuilt with an all-forged rotating assembly, with a forged steel crank, titanium rods and forged pistons, a new camshaft and other upgrades. It has a Corvette-style dry-sump oiling system and custom stainless steel headers with a 3-inch exhaust system. It has a high-capacity radiator and Corvette electric cooling fan. The battery is relocated to the trunk. It is hooked to a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission, using a Corvette clutch. putting the power to the ground is a cadillac cts-v rear end.
The car also has SSBC brakes all around, with slotted rotors, as well as the GM road-race suspension upgrade. The hood is a custom, one-off made in carbon fiber and the car wears the GXP front/rear fascias. Inside, the seats were re-trimmed with red leather inserts.
I took this car to a car show this weekend and im glad i did. It was the first time i have drove it and I can not say enough about this car. This is not your average ls7 solstice. This car was held to GM oem style fit and finish. If you were not familiar with these cars you would think this is how gm made them and it is how we all wish they would have.
If anyone has any questions please fell free to give me a call. My name is dave. 248-508-4093

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
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.
