2003 - Pontiac Vibe on 2040-cars
Kalamazoo, Michigan, United States
This has probably been my favorite car I have ever owned. The Vibe combines the features of a car, a hatchback wagon, a crossover, and an SUV. It is both practical and stylish. I am the second owner and have performed all scheduled maintenance on a regular basis over the past five years. I have always used semi-synthetic oil and had regular tire rotations and balancing. It has newer all-season Falken tires (10/13) from Discount Tire that have a warranty until 208,533 miles. The front brakes and rotors were replaced 8 months ago. I had the tires rotated and balanced last month. I had the oil changed this week and also had it professionally cleaned by a detail shop. It has new premium wipers, new engine air filter, new cabin air filter (many people forget to change these.) The only issues that I aware of are that there is a brief whistling noise from the exhaust that occurs on hard acceleration. I have had several mechanics tell me there is nothing wrong with my exhaust and I have this in writing. There is also some minor paint flaking on the rear bumper. You can see in the pictures that there is paint missing from the upper part of the rear bumper about the size of an index card.

Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?
Wed, 07 Oct 2009 DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob 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.
