But in the wake of cycles of expected and but multi submissions, the highest quality properties will do was G8 ST? That’s the and cr properties began with! Now we feel all inexpensive and used, fancy GM considered how properties got prepared to use the occurence all along. Whatever, it may be in posession of court as the king of awesome in your local Pontiac dealer’s showroom in late 2009 as a 2010 model. The 74-inch cargo bed and 3,500 lb towing capacity would make it easier for you to haul supplementary as opposed to just recently ass, even though the V8 is planning to definitely facilitate which nicely.

The biggest impediment to the G8 Coupe actually seeing the light of day are looming new CAFE regulations, but we don’t see how selling a bulk of these cars with the still-excellent 3.6 liter V6 to less performance-addled customers would be a bad thing. It’d hopefully prevent Pontiac from running afoul of the fuel economy rules while getting another car out there that enthusiasts can embrace in a variety of flavors.

Granted, many of the names will be duplicates. And many of the names will be completely unusable, whether they’re owned by other companies or just plain inappropriate. It’ll take Pontiac a good long while to sift through them all, and while the carmaker won’t reveal what names were submitted or which of them are being considered, a spokesman for the GM division did confirm El Camino was one of them, although it remains to be seen if GM can or will use a defunct Chevy name on a Pontiac vehicle. Meanwhile, although the public voice will be taken into consideration, Pontiac is safeguarding itself against an Alfa MiTo-type backtracking by noting that, in the end, the company’s marketing gurus will have the last say.

Mid-to-late 70’s Pontiac Trans Ams have really been picking up steam on the collector car market. While not nearly as powerful as their more muscular 1969-1974 forebears, the later TAs certainly have a unique and gaudy manly-quality about them, helped in no small part by their association with ’70s icon Burt Reynolds and, of course, the Smokey and the Bandit movie franchise. The vehicle you see in this auction is a particularly nice example of the breed. As a 1978 Special Edition Y/82 Trans Am equipped with the desirable Pontiac 400 engine with 4-speed manual tranny, this is already a collectible vehicle. The original Hurst Hatches and AM/FM/8-track player and CB radio along with the rare rear-console add to this bird’s rarity.

For real Burt Reynolds aficionados, though, this fire-breathing Poncho offers something truly special: his signature on the dash. Not only that, Burt drove the vehicle around while he was in Georgia helping to develop Year One’s Bandit Edition replica car and it has been on television numerous times. With all it has going for it, don’t expect this car to come cheap. In fact, it’s already past $46 grand with days still to go in the auction.
