Hey, back to the debate on the window sticker prices ending in odd numbers or exact change. I think we have an explanation and a cut off date. Looks like the extra change was a charge for the excise tax. This is from my secret semi-anonymous Pontiac info source:
"From cowl tag the black Formula was built 12B. On Canadian Car M.A. Invoice, the car was shipped 01-11-72. The 7% Excise Tax was repealed 12-11-1971 (2nd Saturday of December). Cars built before this had RPO options in dollars and odd-numbered cents, ex: $236.97. Cars built after 12-11-71 had options in even dollars, ex: $231.00." |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
