About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Very good older restoration to like new condition with better paint. 1995 AACA National First Prize. Shows some age but no appreciable use.

Market commentary

The first year for "Wide Track", a styling-driven change that effected significant engineering changes, exactly the opposite of recent Detroit design, and the beginning of Pontiac's renaissance. That's more than enough to justify the price this Bonnie brought, especially since it sold for essentially the same price, $132,300, at RM's Ft. Lauderdale auction in 2007.
