    Other than the green interior I really like this car, but other than the rally II wheel's & in dash Clock I don't see any options on this car. Does not even have bumper guards or rub strips, or even a passenger side rear view mirror.

    You are correct it does have a power bench seat, so at least 3 options!

    I prefer the look of the '71 front without bumper guards. At least it has A/C.

    I, cought the Rally II wheels, I had assumed the Vinyl Top and A/C were standard on the Grand Ville, but according to this Brochure they were not, but the in dash Clock was, so a minimum of 4 options, Rally II wheels, A/C, Vinyl Roof, and Power Bench Seat.

    But the brochure must be an early one as it lists the standard trans on the Grandville was a 3-speed Column Shift Manual trans with the 455 engine standard. I do know that the 3-speed manual was only offered in 1971 Pontiac B-bodies for a few months, and only in the Catalina Line, and only with the 350 2bbl V8. So I don't know how accurate the Brochure is.

    I still like the car!
