Details: Pontiac really understood how to bring performance and luxury in equal measures. The best way to see it is on this 1965 Pontiac Grand Prix. Its rare color and curvy bodylines are balanced with a bucket seat interior and a large 389 V8.


The color thats instantly grabbing your attention is called Iris Mistand#44; and its this coupes factory-correct color. So it is not only going to draw crowds inand#44; but also youve got a cool story to tell them. But more than just how others view this Pontiacand#44; you want it because its a 65. Thats when the styling was changed to the Coke bottle curves that we all loved in this era. Also the hardtop roof ended in a mini flying buttressand#44; which is just another reminder of how style truly ruled the 60s. And speaking of styleand#44; this one has all the right premium touches worthy of a top luxury cruiser. You see it in the front with the extra wide chrome bumper and stacked headlights each in their own chrome pod. In the rearand#44; the taillight panel is hidden within the stylized sweeping trim thats right above the nicely integrated rear bumper. And of courseand#44; luxury cruising means wire wheel coversand#44; and in this caseand#44; there are even skirts over the rear ones.


The factory-correct plum interior is a great complementing color to the exteriorand#44; especially when everything is presented so nice and correct as it is here. The doorsand#44; dashand#44; upholsteryand#44; and headliner all share this color for a great uniform appearance. Pontiac made sure these earned the grand part of their name with bucket seats up front with a comfortable center console in-between. The rear passengers were not neglected either with a fold-down armrest to provide individual comfort. The paneling on the consoleand#44; dashand#44; and factory two-spoke wheel are all terrific pieces that still convey a message of premium luxury today. This nicely presented lumber appearance frames all the gauges and featuresand#44; including the extra-wide speedometerand#44; heat/defrost controlsand#44; and the factory AM/FM stereo. And we know how much youll enjoy grabbing the floor mounted shifter and watching the center-mounted vacuumed gauge dance as you cruise down the highway.


The engine bay stays faithful to this cars original image right down to the black air cleaner and turquoise paint on the block. Fans of the GTO know the Pontiac 389 cubic-inch V8and#44; and its a great powerplant to have hereand#44; too. Theres a bit more grand touring weight in the Grand Prix compared to the Goatsand#44; but that isnt a problem for this big powerand#44; four-barrel carb motor. Advertised at 325 horsepowerand#44; it was able to deliver on the Pontiacs performance promise. Then you add in great features like the three-speed automatic transmissionand#44; power brakesand#44; power steeringand#44; and a supple ride. Its this fast moving and luxury cruising attitude that makes the coupe so desirable.


Weve mentioned all the great features on this unique and nicely presented Grand Prixand#44; but we never mentioned the value price. Thats because this Pontiac looks far more expensive than it is. So you know a deal like this wont stay with us long. Call today!!!
