For sale is my 1995 Pontiac Firehawk #332 6-speed with only 35,200 orig. miles and SLP's 410hp engine package. This is an extremely rare car as it's 1 of 13 chameleon Firehawks produced in 1995. SLP had difficulty matching the paint on the hoods and as a result canceled production, however they honored the orders already received, this is one of those cars. The paint is gorgeous in the sunlight and changes from green to blue to purple. Most people have never seen this color in person and the pictures I took don't do it justice as the sun had set. In addition, this is the only Firehawk I've ever seen that was sent back to SLP to have one of SLP's special high performance engine packages installed. This car received SLP's 410+HP power package which was installed by SLP through a local Pontiac dealer. This is a very collectable and special car that would make a great addition to anyone's collection.  

This Firehawk is in extremely good condition and is all original with the exception of the Hurst chrome handle and white shift knob. I have the original handle and leather wrapped Hurst shift knob and will reinstall prior to selling. There is zero rust on the car, all power options work as they should and the a/c is ice cold. The paint is beautiful and has very minor flaws as one would expect on a low mile well cared for car (minor bug marks or nicks on rockers/nose). All glass is in excellent condition and the t-top seals and weather stripping is nice and soft. The interior is like new and shows no wear or fading-including the original Firehawk floormats that are perfect. Mechanically, it runs and drives like a low mile and well cared for car should. No squeaks or rattles, handles like a sports car and with the SLP 410HP engine package, it is a blast to drive with excellent power. I recently replaced the Firehawk center caps with a NOS set, replaced the fuel filter and changed the oil (Mobil 1 oil & filter). I have two sets of keys and remotes as well the birth certificate and paperwork for the SLP 410HP package and install. I purchased this Firehawk a couple of months ago with the intention of keeping forever. However, this car is too nice and rare that I'm worried to go cruising in it with my wife and young children-it just sits in the garage. I've decided to keep my 99' SS convertible as this is better for cruising as I don't have to worry as much. Low reserve!!!

1995 the Firehawk package was available for the all formula models and required the R6V RPO code. It came as a OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) option which was covered under the standard GM warranty of 36 months or 36,000 miles. The Firehawk option had a MSRP of $5,995 and included:

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.

This 1927 Oakland is a minimalist hot rod

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

There are hundreds of American automakers that sprung up during the dawn of the automotive era, only to fold into obscurity or get gobbled up by what would eventually become the Big Four (yes, we're counting AMC here). Oakland is one such company, which was the forbearer for General Motors' Pontiac division. Sold until 1931, you simply don't see Oakland-badged cars anymore. Unless, that is, you know Brian Bent.
Bent drives a 1927 Oakland that still rides on wooden wheels. Its original wooden wheels, from the sound of it. That makes this anachronist and his Oakland the perfect subject for a Petrolicious video. Like many of the cars highlighted by Petrolicious, this old Oakland has had some work done to it, featuring a Pontiac flathead engine that's been pushed forward and a clutch pack built by Bent.
Take a look below for a closer look at this rare and fascinating Oakland.

GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
