This auction is for a 2001 Pontiac Trans Am Ram Air WS6. The car has 58k original miles and runs and drives out fantastic! It has the LS1 V8 engine with automatic transmission. I wouldn't hesitate to drive it across the country. The car has a clean title and Carfax. The car has some of the following options on it. Power windows, power locks, power mirrors, power drivers seat, power lumber seats on both sides, cruise, ICE Cold a/c, remote keyless entry, T-tops. I also added a pict of the RPO options door sticker.
The original bright red paint on the car is in beautiful shape. I would rate it a 9 out of 10. It looks almost wet and 10ft deep it shines so well. Very few small scratches and nicks to speak of. Its been very well maintained and waxed regularly. The only real significant blemish on the exterior is on the rear lower bumper by the rear drivers tail pipe. There is a small crack. It is very hard to notice because it so minor and low on the bumper. (see pict)
The interior of the car is extremely nice as well. It has the dark ebony leather interior that is in very nice shape with very little wear. The leather seats are in great condition. No tears, no cracks, etc. It has the factory Monsoon stereo system with power antenna that sounds outstanding! The door panels on the top edge of both sides are cracked. Something VERY common on these cars. (see pict)
The car mechanically is very sound. Last fall I had the transmission completely rebuilt by a very reputable shop close to me who specializes in these types of transmissions. It has all upgraded internal parts including clutches, band, etc. I also had a TransGo shift kit installed. It shifts very firm and positive under hard acceleration but under normal driving it shifts just like it did from the factory. I also had the rear end serviced with new oil at that time as well.
The car is all stock and original with the exception of an SLP air lid with K&N filter and an Ultra Flo stainless steel replacement muffler. The car sounds identical as it did with the factory muffler. The factory air box will also come with the car. The wheels on the car aren't perfect and have some blemishes. The tires are matching Z rated 275 40 17. The front tires are about 60% the rears are around 25%. The brakes and factory exhaust are also in good shape!
The only 2 issues I know of with the car is it does leak some oil drips on the garage floor. The other is the security light on the dash is on. Im sure it has something to do with the ignition/key switch. The key doesn't fit very tight and will pull out. It has never gave me any kind of a problem and I hadn't gotten around to having that fixed.
I have done my very best to describe this car as detailed as I can and mention and show the imperfections. It isn't perfect but very nice for a 12 year old car. Anyone wanting to see the car in person is welcomed to, just email to set up a time. Car is sold "AS-IS WHERE-IS" with no warranty of any kind. Buyer to pay a $500 deposit through PAYPAL within 24 hours of auctions end. Full payment due in within 7 days of auctions end. This is a NO RESERVE auction!

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction
Tue, 08 Apr 2014Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
