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.
Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
2008-2009 Pontiac G8 recalled over airbag concern
Mon, 07 Nov 2011General 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.
