1989 Pontiac Trans AM Pace Car! THE GNX EATER??

Video summary

Press to jump

8:45Thomas reveals the white Turbo Trans Am Indianapolis 500 Pace Car inside his garage.
12:22The hood opens for a close look at the turbocharged V6 and factory identification tags.
20:20Thomas takes Alex on a test drive to demonstrate the car's boost, braking and handling.
26:54An undercarriage inspection follows Dennis's purchase, including discussion of a minor accident on the history report.
30:09Dennis and Alex measure the factory wheels, finding matching widths but different front and rear offsets.

Thomas opens the garage to a white Pontiac with a Buick-derived turbo V6 under its hood, and Dennis Collins has plenty to investigate. The Trans Am's Texas plate reads "GNX*EATER," making the question in "1989 Pontiac Trans AM Pace Car! THE GNX EATER??" rather personal.

Coffee Walk's only new upload this week has drawn roughly 259,000 views. Dennis examines the Indianapolis 500 emblems, PAS manufacturing sticker and engine-bay details before Thomas takes Alex out to experience the boost. The episode includes a sponsored probiotic segment.

Dennis makes the case for the Pontiac's performance credentials against the Buick GNX, the subject of the preceding episode. But the useful discoveries aren't all about speed. After buying the car, he gets it onto a lift, notes a minor accident recorded on its history report and checks the clean underside. Then he and Alex measure the gold cross-lace wheels: the widths match, but the front and rear offsets differ. The refurbished originals go back on before the episode closes.

Among the comments are memories of seeing the Turbo Trans Am in a dealership showroom, technical discussion of those wheel offsets and several mentions of a kitten playing in the background. Even a garage full of automotive history has room for a small distraction.

The Pontiac is currently the channel's busiest video, followed by "X-RATED: 1987 Buick GNX" and the earlier Dodge Challenger convertible storage find. Subscribers held steady over the week, while daily viewing is modestly above Dennis's usual level. Among nearby motoring channels, Pushing Pistons had a particularly big viewing week; Dennis's weekly views sat between Tedward and Rainman Ray's Repairs.

What viewers say

I love how the kitten was playing with the leaves in the background during your conversation early in the video. I'd love to have that little stress in life. I went in a Pontiac dealership near Mystic CT in the spring of 1989 and there was one of these in the showroom. It was so amazing. I've always wanted to own one.
