For a pre-owned 2004 Pontiac GTO

Consistent with the GTO's promise to be more of a driver's car than a family transporter or utilitarian commuter, comfort and convenience features are minimal, at least by today's standards. Leather upholstery is standard. It comes with power mirrors, power front seats, and power locks.

The AM/FM/CD stereo features a dash-mounted six-disc changer. The leather-wrapped steering wheel tilts and telescopes. In deference to memory lapses sometimes induced by daytime running lights, headlights have an auto-on setting. And cruise control gives the driver's right leg a break on long drives. But there's no navigation system available, and shoppers wanting set-it-and-forget-it climate control will be disappointed because the HVAC is manual. Nor are there memory settings for a driver's preferred seating and mirror positions, stereo station presets, suspension stiffness, and so on. About the only item possibly falling outside the category of modern necessaries are the standard front and rear floor mats.

Much the same holds for safety gear. For occupants, three-point seatbelts and dual frontal airbags are about it. There is an alarm system, and a keyless remote, but no side airbags or head curtains. Antilock brakes, traction control and a limited-slip differential are standard.

Pontiac Grand Prix GXP, race ahead!

The Pontiac Grand Prix GXP is GM's reply to the mighty Hemi-powered DCX triplets.

 

 

The real winner in the test is the navigation system in the vehicle. Key in the name of a nearby destination and it will find it; the screen shows a map and the directions to get to your destination in a way that's easy to understand.

 

 

The directions even appear in the heads-up display.

Pontiac googled…

"Don’t take our word for it, google pontiac and discover for yourself" GM!

GM seems to think that associating with such a trusted and generally unbiased brand that some of that might rub off on GM/Pontiac. GM’s head of sales and marketing said in Business Week: "We’re touting Google, frankly, because it stands for credibility and consumer empowerment, and we like the association."

Pontiac is telling people to “google pontiac ”, now if only local car dealerships can cash in they could be capturing leads and phone enquiries from this regional campaign.

Buick LeSabre, beating generations!

 

 

 

Of the many concept cars that Buick would build over the years, starting with the 1938 Y-Job, the 1951 LeSabre was probably the most significant.

It heralded the end of the so-called "teardrop" shaped fastback cars of the '40s and early '50s, exemplified by GM's "Torpedo" backs, and post-war Hudsons and Nashes.

With the bold and daring LeSabre, Harley Earl (General Motors’ auto stylist) set a direction in automobile styling that would endure into the 1960s. Generations later, the new 2006 Buick LeSabre's standard features include, a 3800 Series II V6 which delivers 205 horsepower and 230 LB-ft of torque for quick acceleration and passing. This new Buick has an EPA estimated fuel economy of 20 mpg city and 29 mpg highway.

Gilroy Auto – The Pioneer in Crossovers

The 2002 Buick Rendezvous

The 2002 Buick Rendezvous crosses over all the lines that used to separate sedans, minivans, and sport-utility vehicles. The Buick Rendezvous is versatile, seating five to seven passengers. It's nicely styled. It has fine manners on the highway, a benefit of its uni-body construction normally associated with sedans. At the same time, the four-wheel-drive version can cope with any weather and marginal off-highway tracks with dignity. The three-row interior compares favorably with costlier vehicles. There is a lot to like on the 2002 Rendezvous in the terms of Engineering, Flexibility, and appearance.

 

The Buick Rendezvous comes in two trims: CX and CXL. All models come with a 185-horsepower 3.4-liter V6 engine that's used in GM's minivans and an electronically controlled four-speed automatic. Notable is the independent suspension, both front and rear, and anti-lock disc brakes all around. Both models come with 16-inch wheels, the CLX with fancier ones.

The vehicle embodies flexibility, ease and variety, the handling is extremely smooth and makes this crossover the best ever.

For a pre-owned 2000 Pontiac Sunfire

Pontiac 's Sunfire delivers is an affordable compact wrapped in stylish sheet metal. It is available as a coupe, sedan, GT or convertible.

Three body styles are available: four-door sedan, two-door coupe and two-door convertible. The coupes and the convertible offer the most excitement, but the SE Sedan provides more practicality with a roomier back seat and a larger trunk.

Two four-cylinder engines are available, a 115-horsepower 2.2-liter and a sporty 150-horsepower 2.4-liter twin-cam. Three-speed and four-speed automatics are available along with a new five-speed manual gearbox from Getrag.

Pontiac revised the styling of the 2000 Sunfire. A new front fascia gives it a fresh appearance. Integral fog lamps on GT coupe and convertible give them a sportier appearance. Rounded turn signals integrated into the front fascia are used on the SE models. Side ribs and new rocker panel moldings on the SE models add some surface excitement for a more aggressive look. A new rear fascia with rounded backup lamps similar to those on the recently redesigned Grand Am reinforces the Pontiac brand image. A rear decklid spoiler is standard on all Sunfire coupes.

The Sunfire Convertible resembles a miniature Firebird with its fluid curves, sharp, tapered nose, muscular bodyside bulges and stocky tail treatment. The Pontiac Sunfire offers a sportier look than the Chevy Cavalier does.
