455 Horsepower 2001 Trans-Am WS6 Heavily Modified With Paperwork and Custom Dyno Tune. For sale today is an extremely clean, heavily modified 2001 WS6 Trans Am. This car only has about 7-13k miles on it since its complete drive train overhaul from July of 2012 until January of 2013. Since then its also had alot of tasteful modifications which will be listed below. The motor has a nice cam set-up that's been on the car for about 13k miles, at which point the head gaskets, seals, timing chains and so on were replaced. The Transmission, clutch, rear differential and gears were replaced at 77k miles by Maryland Performance Center in Fredrick Maryland from 7/12 until around 1/13, where everything else on the car was inspected as well. The exhaust was modified from front to back and fitted with custom 02 fittings so that it still passes emissions. Also has an electronic cut out for those who like it a little louder with american racing headers, custom catted Y pipe and Magnaflow exhaust. MPC also gave the car a custom dyno tune, at which point the car was recorded putting down 455hp at the crank and 390hp at the rear wheels. All in all the drive train from front to back only has 13k miles (motor) and around 8k miles on the transmission, clutch, and rear end. The sound system in it is amazing, with a custom Kenwood head unit as well as aftermarket speakers, MTX sub and JL Audio amps to give it crisp clean sound.

As you can see, alot of time and money has been poured into this car. Its not easy to find a clean F body with reasonable mileage on it, but this car has less that 13,000 miles on the suspension and complete drive-train from front to back. My asking price is what they go for stock, without over $11,000 in parts that are into this car and close to another $5,000 easily in labor to have it all installed. I have you tube videos as well with a walk-around of the car and the exhaust. The first video of the walk around has the cut-out for the exhaust open, and the second video from the back of the car has the cut out closed and running through the dual magnaflows. The cut-out switch is located in the ash tray hidden from plain sight and can be open or closed while stopped or driving with the flip of the switch. The first video also shows the hazards on so you can see the lights switching in the front from clear to orange. Videos Below Walk around...cutout open youtube.com/watch?v=3vfkN90qDSo Exhaust from rear with cutout closed youtube.com/watch?v=llPYrnZ9k_c&list=UUf-xshr8LBOSlEAVF6gDG3g&feature=c4-overview All in all, the car is extremely clean and shows how well its been taken care of. This is a true coded WS6, check the pictures for the vin and door codes. The car runs great and sounds absolutely wicked. It does not have any body damage at all and the interior is as clean as it looks. It doesnt have the typical door panel cracks or interior cracks that most come with and it also doesnt have any of the typical "door sag" that the F-bodys are know for having because of the weak fiberglass where the door hinge mounts to the door. The drives side door had a weakspot on the bottom mount from the fiberglass drying out a few years ago so it was replaced with a stronger newer version offered by GM, there are plenty of threads about this all over F-body forums and most people try slopping fiberglass all over it to fix it but this was done the right way by replacing the defective unit. A video is listed below to help illustrate the issue F body Fiberglass door issue (mine was replaced OEM) youtube.com/watch?v=Nvi7y-R0owg Like I said, most people attempt to re-fiberglass the themselves to save the money but the only way to ensure the issue is resolved is to replace the unit professionally. This car was never a car that anyone cut costs on, as seen above. The car runs fantastic, it has no check engine lights or warning signs, oil pressure and temperature are absolutely perfect and it can be driven wherever you want to take it. The paint is amazing for its age and even though its cloudy in the pics, you can still see the blue-purple tint it has when the light hits it. Its got tons of GO-FAST goodies but was never tracked or raced. The car is in really good condition for being a 13 year old car. Nothing on this car was half assed or back yard mechanic'd. The most recent mod was the Bilstein Shocks all around with an alignment. The interior like I said is in great shape with no rips in the seats or holes in the carpet. Firestone tires on factory WS6 chromes that shine nice and have a touch of rash on the lip but they are in great shape. The clutch is also adjustable so it can be set to your liking or driving style. The car also has a CLEAR TITLE registered in MD which is signed by the previous owner and can be transferred to the new owner upon payment with a bill of sale as well. I bought the car with hopes of taking it with me to my new home but my house failed inspection and I have to fork out money on a septic system and heating units before I can close on it. I have Dyno sheets from Maryland Performance in Fredrick as well as receipts for the Transmission, Clutch, Flywheel, Gears, Diff cover, 02 relocation so on and so fourth. Every thing else thats listed can be found quite easily with part numbers to see that the costs on this car are in fact very, very real. Please consider that the upgrades on this car are pretty close to what im asking just by themselves, WITHOUT LABOR!! This is a modified F-Body Trans Am WS6 thats pretty much only got 13k miles on everything but the body, which only has 87k on it itself. The t-tops do not leak and it has zero rust issues. Also has tinted glass t-tops and windows. Any questions feel free to email me at threewheeler@live.com or you can reach me via ebay message. Please make serious offers and feel free to see the car in person before doing so. PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF PURCHASE. I WILL NOT SHIP THIS CAR!!!!!!!!!!! LOCAL PICKUP ONLY AND NO PAY-PAL!!!!!! CASH OR CERTIFIED CHECK AND IF ITS A CERTIFIED CHECK IT MUST BE FROM PNC BANK!!! NO IFS ANDS OR BUTTS ABOUT IT. CAR IS SOLD AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY, ALSO BEING LISTED WITH THE RIGHT TO RETRACT AD AT ANY TIME. THANKS |

GM doing fine at retaining Pontiac owners
Fri, 28 Oct 2011This isn't the first time we've reported positive news about General Motors retaining former Pontiac owners. Get a few more stories like this latest report from Edmund's Auto Observer, and it will mark an ongoing positive trend for GM. Edmunds.com crunched the numbers to see how well the General is hanging on to customers after shutting out the lights at Pontiac, and it found that nearly 40 percent of Pontiac owners stayed with a vehicle from a General Motors brand.
The numbers are a little lower than an earlier R.L. Polk & Company study, but Edmunds says General Motors is keeping more former Pontiac buyers than it has since 2007. Most are turning to vehicles from Chevrolet, especially during January and February of 2011, when GM incentivized Pontiac owners to stay under the umbrella. Those moves seem to have worked, and 28.1 percent of Pontiac owners trading up made the jump into a Bowtie.
Buyers that have gone elsewhere have largely stayed loyal to Domestic automakers, with Ford picking up the most conquests from Pontiac, with 9.4 percent switching. Toyota and Honda picked up 7.4 percent of the pool of former Pontiac drivers. The numbers are defying any predictions that Pontiac buyers would completely exit the General Motors fold, and have climbed up closer to parity with the retention figures of other GM brands from a 2009 low of only 16 percent retention.
1969 Pontiac GTO Judge vs. 2006 GTO, which Goat gets your vote?
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Pontiac GTO was perhaps the most iconic muscle car of the '60s and early '70s. With its beefy V8 and color palette screaming for attention, it summarized in a single vehicle everything that made the era so appealing to many young people. Pontiac tried to collect just a few drops of that aura again in the 2000s with a revived GTO, but with decidedly mixed results. The performance was still there with its big V8, but the looks never quite lived up to the powertrain. Now, Generation Gap wants to know which of these Goats is the one to own.
Things are skewed immediately because the 2006 GTO here is a real ringer. It comes from famous tuner Ken Lingenfelter's collection, and it's a one-off example partially fettled by GM Performance boasting a twin-turbocharged LS2 V8 with a claimed 750 horsepower and a wide-body kit. This Goat definitely isn't what you're going to find just browsing for one to buy in the newspaper. Still, dip the throttle just a little, and this GTO pulls like a freight train. It's enough to turn the two hosts into giggling schoolboys behind the wheel.
The '69 GTO Judge here is also out of Lingenfelter's collection, but this one is all stock with a 400-cubic-inch (6.6-liter) V8 and a Ram Air hood for a claimed 366 hp. It might not have the unbelievable power of the turbo '06, but it makes up for it with style to spare.
Tony Stewart to star in Smoke Is The Bandit web series
Mon, 10 Mar 2014NASCAR driver Tony Stewart is making good use of his nickname Smoke in new videos inspired by the 1970s classic Smokey and the Bandit. The original is one of the quintessential automotive movies of its era with a fantastic combination of slapstick comedy and great car stunts in a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. If you've never seen it, check it out immediately.
In the new six-part Smoke IS the Bandit web series, Stewart takes on the role of Burt Reynolds' famous character complete with huge mustache. But instead of trying to smuggle cases of Coors beer it's Mobil 1 oil. The series promises to recreate many of the famous scenes from the movie and includes cameos from other NASCAR drivers.
To complete the look, future videos just need a quality replacement for a young Sally Field to ride shotgun. It would also be really cool if Reynolds could make a brief appearance at some point. Scroll down to check out the trailer and the first episode in the series.
