GoldAvantiII

The stars are pointing towards a JOINT AOAI / SDC Meet in Washington, PA At the County Fairgrounds, Sept 16-20, 2025. Best to title it as "In Work!"

Thanks for posting this article, Lew. It's a great story and I hope that it brings more folks to South Bend for an overnight stay at one of Don's Avanti Houses. Don was a big supporter at the 2024 AOAI Detroit Nationals in Livonia Sept 17-21. He was there with his bright yellow 2007 Avanti Convertible and also was very active there in the AOAI's annual on-site Silent Auction. .......... Harvey

Rich, thanks so much for your kind words. We enjoyed meeting you and your sharp '04 and your doggie too!

I have a 2002 Avanti Convertible. Got it in April. Have had great drives with this call in dry, in hot and in rainy weather. I am very pleased with this car's performance. This car has 235/45Z R17 Front Tires and has 245/45Z R17 Rear Tires. The speedometer, compared to GPS tracking, appears to be fairly accurate. The Glove Box Door has a Tire Info Plate that shows 235/45Z R17 for the Front Tires and 255/45Z R17 for the Rear Tires. Searching for info for the (donor car) 2002 Pontiac Firebird/Trans Am Conv. at local tire stores I see: 245/45 R17 Front & 315/35 R17 Rear at Discount Tire. I see 275/40 R17 Front & Rear at Belle Tires. I see 255/45 R17 Front and 275/45 R17 at Tire Rack. The 2002 Pontiac Firebird Owners Manual sez 275/40Z R17 Front & Rear. When I do replace the tires on this car I suppose that I will follow what it says on the Glove Box Door Tire Info Plate ...... or ...... ???????????

There will be a 2002 Convertible, a 2006 Convertible and a 2006 Coupe at the 2024 Meet in Detroit (Livonia). Last minute entries may add 1 or 2 more ????? We will welcome you and your 2004 Supercharged model with open arms ! Harvey ... AOAI 2024 Detroit Co-Chair
