Beautiful 2002 Pontiac Trans Am for sale. 5.7L V8 with 84k miles that runs like a scalded dog and sounds great. Has everything: T-Tops, Automatic, Black Leather Interior, Power Seats, PW, PL, Ice Cold AC, CD, Traction Control, Dual Exhaust, Keyless entry, Rear Defroster, Rear Spoiler, Steering wheel controls, you name it. Car runs and drives like a dream. Only issues are the display for the radio doesn't work (radio and CD work fine the display just doesn't work), radio antenna makes a noise when it goes up, driver's side window has a loose connection but still works, and for NYSI I have two computers for it: the stock one that I use when the car needs inspection (only needed in NY & very easy to swap out) and an upgraded one for every other day. It's in very nice shape with the normal scratches with a slight paint peel on the bumper as shown in picture. It does have cracks in the top plastic part of the doors as shown in the picture (very common). These are all very minor things but wanted to mention everything I could think of. Someone did some very nice power upgrades to get it around 450-475hp. I don't know what was done because it was by a previous owner but it sounds great, runs strong and won't give you any issues. This car is a great runner that is a lot of fun to drive. Car is for sale locally so auction may be ended at any time.

2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern

Mon, 07 Nov 2011

General Motors is recalling around 38,000 Pontiac G8 sedans from its 2008 and 2009 model years. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that the cars may have a passenger-side airbag flaw that might prevent proper deployment in certain scenarios.
According to NHTSA, the airbag might not adequately protect a fifth percentile woman - that is, a woman around four-foot, 11-inches weighing 108 pounds. The New York Times indicates that the anomaly was found during a crash test conducted by GM's Australian branch, Holden, which was testing the G8's twin (read: Commodore) for head injuries. According to that report, the test in question is specifically tailored to simulate injuries to females, so the results do not apply to men or children.
The issue has been blamed on a seat position sensor that governs airbag deployment rates. NHTSA indicates that when the front passenger seat is moved all the way forward, the faulty sensor may inappropriately trigger a 30-millisecond delay between airbag stages, potentially leading to greater injuries.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
