Q: Pontiac GTO??????????????????????????????????
why did they stop making new pontiac gto’s????????? will they make any more?
A: Supposedly, because the Holden it was designed from didn’t meet more stringent American safety specs, and GM decided it wasn’t worth the extra cost of reworking the American version for a car that wasn’t selling well. Or that the Holden was being redesigned, and GM decided it wasn’t worth creating the left-hand drive version for America. That’s two of the versions of the story I’ve heard, and in either case, it all comes down to cost. GM wasn’t making enough on GTOs to have it be worth the money invested.
Originally it was that Holden was discontinuing the car that the GTO was based on, but I think now they were referring to a redesign that GM was unwilling to carry over to the American version.
Q: How much would it cost for me to get a Pontiac GTO?
I don’t have a license, but I’m planning on changing that within the next few months, & (assuming the regulations go along with it) I’d like to get a Pontiac GTO. How much would that cost me?
I’m not interested in a particular year, but I do like that car.
A: Vehix.com
Craigslist.org
Ebay.com
It could cost from $2,000 to $70,000.
Q: What trims does the 2006 Pontiac GTO come in?
Im looking into buying a 2006 Pontiac GTO and I can only find ones with the trim “basic”. Are there more and if so what are they?
A: The 2006 Pontiac GTO only really came in one trim level with very few options. The most important decision you’ll have to make is manual or automatic transmission. No sunroof or NAV system was available.
Q: What is the difference between a 1967 Pontiac gto and a 1967 Pontiac gto lemans?
I am about to buy a 1967 Pontiac GTO and I dont know if its a lemans or not? the guy is selling it for $8,500 is this a good deal?
A 1967 Pontiac Lemans not a 1967 Pontiac gto lemans
OK IT HAS A 400cu engine and its a convertible
it was for sale by owner and it dosent say gto or lemans
the car says Pontiac gto
A: While it’s true the GTO was the only one of the A-bodies to get the 400, this won’t determine if it’s a GTO since you haven’t told us what engine you’ve found (if any) in the GTO.
However, the VIN will determine whether it’s a GTO. For 1967, it could be one of three:
242077—- (Sport Coupe, which has the B-pillar between the side windows)
242177—- (Hardtop Coupe, which has no B-pillar)
242677—- (Convertible)
(The rest of the numbers after what’s listed above won’t be pertinent for the moment.)
If these check out, it’s *most likely* a 1967 GTO . . . but people have been known to fake cars. That’s why Pontiac Historical Services is your best bet to know how your car was originally equipped:

Values vary depending on what the original engine was. Top engine – less than 800 made – was the Ram Air rated at 360 hp and only equipped with 4.33 gears. Hence, it’s hard to determine a value without looking at the car and without knowing what 400 the car originally had.
Good luck!

Q: Does anyone own a new Pontiac GTO. If so how do you like it, does the engine run strong. What are the pros a
Does anyone own a new Pontiac GTO. If so how do you like it, does the engine run strong. What are the pros and cons. I am thinking about getting one.
A: There is no such thing! 2006 was the last year for the two door Holden Manaro shipped to the USA as a GTO. My 2006 six speed manual with 18″ tires and less than 16,000 miles. I have cold air intake K&N, GMMripshifter, Hodgekiss Sway bars, SLP lould mouth exhaust and SLP’s Predatior Power programer. I installed more aggressive Bridgstone RE-010R tires. Good for about 13.7 mpg in town average speed 28 miles an hour and over 25mpg on the highway at just under 70 mph. Torque this car could pull down trees! Power you can select any three gears during normal driving. Top speed limiter is gone with the programmer and I haven’t seen the top speed yet just over 150 so far actual speed. Great brakes for a stock car very good seats hold you in on corners. I think a four speed automatic in this car would be a mistake gas milage would suffer. Come on Join the GTO crowd! Just a word of warning these cars are fast and powerful. Take a performance driving school learn your limits and the cars handling before exercising your right foot in traffic with traction control turned off.

Q: What color was the inside of a 1965 Pontiac GTO?
I know Pontiac put an insulated pad on the inside of a 1965 GTO, but I am not sure if the sheet metal was painted black or the color of the car.
A: My Regimental Red ‘67 has a black dash pad and black painted sheetmetal. Of course, it also has the black interior (carpet, seats, door panels, etc.). My ‘64 – same thing.
I have a model of a ‘65 on my desk with a parchment interior with a black dash, if that helps!
Q: Need advice on tinting windows on black Pontiac GTO?
I want to tint my windows on my black Pontiac GTO. The state law here says I can go no darker than 30 percent. I don’t really know what that means. Will 30 percent look good on a black GTO or would it be a waste of money? Please help!
A: if u want the windows dark then 30% tint will be a waste of money because its too light. 30% will look good if u want a light tint on ur car. If u wanna get a dark tint then get at least 20% or lower. I have 20% on my black car and its dark but u can still see inside. In my state (Wisconsin) the limits are 50% on front and 35% on back and I’ve never been pulled over.
Q: What is your opinion about the Pontiac GTO?
Hey guys, just wondering your opinion about the new pontiac GTO’s.
I’m thinking of buying one but I have to decide between a GTO, a 350z, a VR4 or an LSE
So just gimme your opinion on the GTO
A: The performance of the new GTO’s is darn good. The interior is nice and comfortable. The #1 downfall of this car is the rear end looks like a cavalier and the front looks like a Grand Am. I work with a guy who had the 350HP model. The last year they sent them out with the 400HP. SLP has a huge offering of “Go Fast” parts to make this car run with the best.
Q: Can the ABS modulator on an ‘05 Pontiac GTO be bypassed?
I own a 2005 Pontiac GTO and just recently found out that it needs a new ABS modulator..The brakes currently do not work…But the new ABS modulator is $3,100..Can the ABS modulator be Bypassed?
A: go to the junk yard, better known as the auto recycler, ask for a cross reference for a recycled abs modulator…or, spring for the 31 hun-sorry, no way around it, can’t redo the brakes due to limitations by the feds…get used to it, or buy an older car…
Q: What’s a good turbocharger for a 2006 Pontiac GTO?
