PENDING SALE
$44,999
SOLD

Pontiac’s Firebird is an iconic car. It was made between 1967 and 2002 across four generations, and the sister car of Chevy’s Camaro. Notably, the second and third generations of Firebird had significant screen presences, in the shape of featuring prominently on Smokey and the Bandit (second generation), as well as Knight Rider (third generation). It’s no surprise, given that the second-generation’s muscular and pumped-up looks lent itself well to star alongside Burt Reynolds, while the third generation’s sleek computer-graphics esque design was perfect to be the car of the future – talking and all. Today, we’ve got a nice second-generation 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for sale from The Villages, Florida. This machine has got the Oldsmobile 403ci V8 under the hood, and rolls on a set of aftermarket Snowflake wheels. We’re also informed that the interior has been reupholstered.

PENDING SALE
$15,899

Pontiac, founded in 1926 was responsible for many all-American heroes of the automotive scene. Names such as Firebird, GTO, Bonneville, Tempest and Fiero are still held in high regard today. Sadly, the Pontiac division was shut down by GM in 2010. In their later years, they continued to create an interesting car every now and then. The Solstice was one of them, a compact two-door convertible sports car that was made between 2006 and 2010. That’s what we have here, a 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster from San Antonio, Texas. It’s got a 2.4-liter Ecotec 4-cylinder, a convertible top, and is rear-wheel drive as you’d expect from any self-respecting sports car. With just over 35,000 miles on the odometer, this curio could be yours!
