Pontiac Vibe/toyota Matrix 2003 Gt Model on 2040-cars
Marblehead, Massachusetts, United States
|
Pontiac Vibe/Toyota Matrix 2003, GT model (Same as Toyota XRS). Yamaha-manufactured 1.8 liter engine makes 180 hp @8200 rpm with six-speed transmitssion - car will reallly move! Car has most available accessories for year, including sun roof, roof rack, power windows, locks (with remote) and mirrors, side curtain airbags, cd changer, AC, anti-locki brakes, etc. 131k miles, excellent overall condition for age. This car has been rock-solid, bulletproof trouble free for me during 75000 miles and five years. Oil changes, tires, battery and brake pads - that's it. It is amazing what it can carry with the fold-flat passenger front seat. Unlike the newer models the rear window opens separately from the hatch for even longer stuff. There are a few things to mention: the car is ten years old. It has a minor ding on the driver's door under the GT symbol (photo) and the rear bumper cover has been bumped in the right corner so the back-up light now points up. (Good for spotting low-flying planes while backing up) It might be possible to pop it out. There is a stain on the rear passenger side seat (photo). The plastic splash shield in front of the left front tire is split. Other than that, the car is pretty clean and mechanically excellent. Tires probably average about 40 % and the aluminum wheels are in average condition for age. This is a no-reserve auction - I won't waste your time with hidden "reserves" or unrealistic buy it now prices. You tell me what it's worth! The car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction if it sells locally. $500 deposit withing24 hours, balance in seven days. I might be able to cooperate in delivery from Boston area under mutuallly negotiated terms.

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way
Tue, 21 Feb 2012There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.
GM recalls 61k more vehicles in three campaigns
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Following a stop-delivery order for its new midsize trucks and a rash of recent recalls, General Motors is issuing three more campaigns covering 60,575 vehicles in North America with 57,182 of them in the US. As of October 1, the automaker has issued a total of 74 recalls (see the ridiculously long chart to the right) this year covering 26,495,070 units in the US.
The largest campaign covers 46,873 examples in the US of the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle imported from Australia. It's possible for the driver's knee to hit the key and make it move from the "Run" to "ACC" position while driving. GM says its Holden division is developing a fixed-blade key that's supposed to fix the problem by only allowing it to rotate toward the "On" position. There has been one crash caused by this fault but no injuries or fatalities.
The second recall is for 10,005 units of the 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V and 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V because "the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat." This can cause a flange to melt and allow the pump to leak fuel. GM specifies that the remedy for the CTS-V is replacing the fuel module and fuel tank jumper harness, but it doesn't specify how the STS-V is being repaired.
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.
