1981 Pontiac Bonneville Safari

29k miles. Highly desirable Rally II wheels. The interior looks like the seat bottom cushions have been reversed.

It's a Bonneville. 'Wood grain delete' was an option.

Bottom of middle column. Just above 'Tires':

Thanks. I will revise the listing. What do you think of those seats?

 

I think your vinyl has held up better than my cloth. I don't have any tears, but it's wrinkling on the front bottom cushion a little bit.

 

The upholstery style is correct; it just looks plain in vinyl. The cloth style is shown in the '81 brochure.

 

What do y'all think of the asking price? High for a fairly modest option 1980s GM box wagon, but the miles are very low and it looks like nearly new.

 

For that kind of price I expect more detailed pictures and more than a line or two of text. No mention of engine or condition, 29k miles can mean it's very nice or it can mean it was parked for a reason.

The low option count is a turn-off to me personally. Four door cars with crank windows aren't great and manual locks are a pain when you're driving people around.

 

It looks to be almost the same colors as the "Vista-Bird" ?!
I know they're original but those seats with the plain vinyl look like they're from a cop car or taxi cab.
I wouldn't pay over $4500 bucks for it.
But I wouldn't own a green car if you gave it to me or paid me to take it, I won't even ride in one.

 

Those seats look " Weird " in my opinion. Like a bad re-upholster job. How did anyone at GM think
those looked good even when new..????? Just sayin'

 

No argument

 

O.K.
I called the guy. ( Quentin ) Super-nice over the phone. It has the Olds 307 No rear jump seat ( 6 Passenger )
a.m. Radio No power ANYTHING. It does have a.c. But, needs gone-through. Pretty-much a Plain-Jane car.
Bought it from his Elderly neighbor 4 years ago. He's pretty-up there in price. I'm thinking if he has it for awhile
he'll come down. But, there's no disputing it is nice.

 

Looks super nice but priced too high.

 

I'm just curious. What do any of you think this is actually worth ? After talking to the owner, the
mileage sounds legit. And a straight car. Just so LOW optioned........???????
