I had an 04 with the LS1 and bumped up to an 06 with the LS2 years back before family happened and I got a Mazda SUV lol. But just curious what were your all impressions of that line of GTO?

My Second LeMans

A few weeks back I posted a pic of my first car. It was my dad’s Canadian built 1972 LeMans in what my girlfriend at the time described as “shit brindle brown”. I had to sell that car but kept an eye open for another one when my circumstances changed. Found a beat up 1972 LeMans GTO in 1998 in Quebec Tennessee and had it restored.

Pontiac Vibes. What are the odds. A courier pulled up beside me , after having bought a Vibe 2 weeks ago , 203k km for $3400. I bought mine , for my kid, 241k kms , $1200 . Mine runs great , sips fuel , doesn’t appear to burn oil so far, and hasn’t tripped any codes on my ODB scanner.

Final one: The Pontiac Bearclaw GXP in its fictional promotional pictures and all its details

I gave it a 6 speed manual, updated interior badging, rear DVD players, and a fictionally upgraded 6.2L LS9 V8 making 415hp and 430 lb/ft of torque with a top speed of 147 mph and a quarter mile time of 14.8 seconds with a curb weight of 5,728 lbs. Along with factory installed 22 inch wheels and all of the rear tailgate features as the aztek excluding the bench in the tailgate or the tent. Again. This is 100% imagination, I personally always dreamt Pontiac would actually make a badass performance SUV when I was a kid, but sadly it never came to be for multiple reasons. One can dream still.

Just learned the G6 doesn't use a cabin air filter, but GM indicates on the box you can add one yourself

I've had my 08 G6 for about a year now and just realized I never changed the cabin air filter before. Popped open the glove box and realized... I couldn't find it?

So I looked it up. Apparently they decided to never implement one into this air system for whatever reason.

However, they did decide to include a nice stencil on the box itself and the words "CUT ON DASHED LINE TO ADD FILTER" So I took out my Dremel and slid one in that's sized for a G5/Chevy Cobalt. Bingo, fresh cabin air!

Alright friends. What features would YOU like in my fictional GMT-800 Pontiac full size SUV. I shall make it happen!

It seems you guys didn’t care for the Bearclaw GXP, but I’m starting to have fun imagining this car entirely haha, I think it could evolve into somebody’s future project. but let me ask all of you, what would you like to see in it? Manual transmission? Quad exhausts? Rear DVD player, A 6.2L V8? let’s build this together haha

Having played the “What-If” game, now let’s see what a ‘Pontiac Bearclaw GXP would look like!

Since you seemed to like the previous one I dreamt up on AI, might as well dream up a GXP version.

I decided that what if I told Rick Wagoner to fuck off, and made something that would have likely been the second fastest production SUV in the world at the time haha

Here we have the Bearclaw GXP, to answer your questions as to why it sounds like a pastry? I just stole the name from the 1994 concept that became the Aztek, so this is entirely me just imagining something that would have never happened. This is 100% me just dreaming up something.

Anyway.

The GXP would be gifted a 400HP LS2 V8 with 415 lb/ft of torque.

Mated to what would likely have been a 4L65E 4 speed heavy duty automatic transmission. Utilizing an AWD configuration.

0-60 would take 8.1 seconds

1/4 mile time of 15.8 seconds

Top Speed of 141 MPH

Max Towing Capacity would likely have been around 7200 lbs

Max Payload 1267 lbs

Curb Weight 5,890 lbs

Fuel Economy (now this is going to SUCK)

12 MPG city/16 MPG highway

Electronic or other gizmos for performance:

Stabilitrak 4 wheel electronic stability control

Factory installed Pontiac GXP specific 21 inch wheels

4 Wheel ventilated disc brakes with hydroboost assist

A car I wish existed: what if Pontiac was given the GMT-800 platform in 2000? I Give you The Pontiac Bearclaw

Literally all of this is imagination and AI so bear with me:

Keep the name from the 1994 concept.

Only offered in short wheelbase form as shared with the Tahoe.

5.3L Vortec 5300 V8 standard (SE) 285BHP

5.7L LS1 V8 option (SLE) 310 BHP

6.0L Vortec 6000 V8 option (SSE) 335 BHP

6.0L LS2 V8 (GXP) 400 BHP

All models will have

8.4 inches of ground clearance,

standard 5 spoke rims excluding the GXP,

SLE models and up would come with vinyl/leather interiors.

the GXP would have the exact interior as the Escalade Platinum

Include the same stereo and steering wheels as the Yukon on the same platform, but include the same kind of add ons that the Aztek had! such as the air mattress, tent, cooler, rear stereo, and the air pump.

Presumably if this went on Sale in 2001, it would sport a price tag of $33,000, ranging to $48,000 for the GXP

Hypothetically, this could have been a huge hit for the Canadian market. A capable, reliable SUV with a brand they we’re more than familiar with

I have some questions about just general things I should look out for when working/driving this baby. I plan on putting a lot into it as I just got it, she will be getting the much needed TLC she deserves but out of curiosity I thought I’d come here and see what you all thought about the Sunfire! I love it so far. I would like to mod it some maybe after I get some things figured out, what would be some things to look for?

You know the fellows at GTOs of America and over at the restricted GTO Reddit group have discovered the 1969 EconoRacer article from Car and Driver’s special New Car Annual, but what they don’t tell you is that the Judge submitted to the magazine was banned from the test because it was a ringer employing a modified 1968 engine… this practice was first revealed when both Ford products were shipped from the shop of Holman & Moody in the 1966 Supercar comparison.

No matter because by 1969 the GTO was best enjoyed along the coast with the top down.

Someday someone (me) will write an article about who actually purchased supercars and how it related more to the social issue of freedom and independence our society sought to keep alive than to street racing.
