To continue my fan-boy Pontiac posts (yes, I am a devoted follower of the pointy badge), a new version Solstice was unveiled alongside the G8 GXP as well as the new 2009 Vibe at the New York International Auto Show last week.

Named the Pontiac Solstice Coupe, the two seater will still be able to thrill you like the convertible, but buyers can now enjoy a true semi-fixed roof instead of a folding canvas convertible.

“Semi-fixed? What do you mean by that?” Continue Reading…

Pontiac G8 GT Commercial Screenshot

Very good move for Pontiac here. This commercial is for the new Pontiac G8, and it’s based off the 1980’s classic video game Spyhunter. The very market who Pontiac aims to sell these cars to grew up playing these games, and I think this will really strike a cord with us. This is honestly the coolest car commercial I think I’ve ever seen: Continue Reading…

Pontiac G8 GT SEMA Concept

With the 2008 Pontiac G8 sure to be a hit when it’s released early next year, Pontiac shows us the G8 GT SEMA Edition; even more of a head-turner than the standard G8. The bright orange paint isn’t for everybody, but it certainly gives it a unique appeal. The orange carries over inside, onto the leather two-tone seat inserts (very cool,) the instrument panel, and the door panels.

The G8 GT SEMA Edition carries the same 362 horsepower V8 found in the production G8 GT, and will also have the same 6-speed automatic transmission with DSC. The show car sports unique 20″ wheels, but the production model will only have a maximum of 19″ wheels on the GT. Continue Reading…

Pontiac G8 GT

The beloved Pontiac Grand Prix is getting ready to retire. Serving America strong since 1962, the Grand Prix covered the mid-size sedan segment, even up to the “personal luxury car” segment for a strong 46 years, beginning with the help on John DeLorean (yes, the creator of the time-traveling DMC-12.) But it’s time to relax, old buddy. Your new, younger replacement is here - the Pontiac G8.

We witnessed the unveiling of the G8 at the 2007 Chicago Auto Show, and the response was amazing. People just seem to love it, and I’m sure it won’t have a problem selling. Here are some details on the G8 when it hits streets in early 2008: Continue Reading…

Here’s the second part of the 2007 Chicago Auto Show Update. Be sure and view Part 1 if you haven’t yet. Continuing on, here is an overview of the Auto Show. Don’t worry, only the coolest cars are listed here, nothing boring :) In Part 1, I went over some of the major concepts and unveilings that the manufacturers had for us. In Part 2 I would like to continue on, starting with this beautiful concept:

Mazda didn’t do much at this years show, other than showing off the Ryuga Concept at their display.

Mazda Ryuga Concept

The Ryuga is really cool looking in person, but it’s really hard to see it’s nice curves in photos. The Ryuga is simply a design concept, meant to show you the direction Mazda is facing in the design of its new vehicles. The Ryuga shows this well with its curvy, nature-inspired lines.
