This Year's Model Updates:

The 2004 GTO is an all-new rear-wheel-drive performance car from Pontiac. Although it is new to the U.S. market, it is based on a car sold by GM's Australian subsidiary, Holden, under the Monaro nameplate.

Pros:
  • Powerful V8, rear-wheel drive, predictable handling from fully independent suspension, loaded with standard features.
Cons:
  • Forgettable styling, numerous standard features make it an expensive proposition.

    By -

    So far I like the car. It is very well put together. Im not crazy about the styling of the rear of the car. The interior is comfortable, with lots of leg room, and well put together. It has much more power then you can use and get wonderful gas mileage for a car with that much power. So far, it has averaged 19.2 for all our driving. It handles very well and ride is a little harsh but no more then expected for this kind of car.

  • Corvette with a back seat! - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    Great Car! A bit boring on the outside. But I still get people rolling down their windows and asking me what I think, as they smile at it. It is almost as much fun as my 1969 SS Chevelle. This car performance wise what the Firebird should have been, long ago.

    This car is great, and for the price unbeatable. The ls1 and tremac 6 speed combo is a great combination. Wonderful power and sounds mean when you put the pedal down. But, it also has the ability to be quite when leaving the neighborhood at 6 am. This is not a car for the Eco conscious or one looking for the cheapest route from point A to B. This is a car where you will enjoy the commute. Right now, I am measuring the car in smiles per gallon, and believe me, that number is quite large.

    Pontiac has every one beat on this one.

  • Excellent Sports Car for the Money - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Being a former Z28 owner (highly modified), the comparison in quality is unmatched. For a similar level of performance and much better interior design, this car wins hands down. Everytime I fill up with gas people just start looking around and inside the car. All of the comments are very positve. The red leather interior is very eye catching and the detail in the interior is top notch.

  • Maintaining the concept - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Many people keep refering to the fact that the GTO doesnt look like a muscle car. Well a lot of that is the perception of history. The original GTO was a plain jane Pontiac Tempest with a common styling for it era. Pontiac took this everyday two door going to church car and dropped in a powerful drivetrain, added a hood scoop, exhaust and a bigger set of shoes. With the New GTO, they took a well established up to date styled car, the Holden Monaro, dropped in a powerful drivetrain and added a healthy exhaust. Sound familiar?? The only thing missing is the hoodscoop. Of course with the new technology in 30 years, the creature comforts are much stronger.

  • Fast, Fun Head-Turner - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Lots of fun to drive - and oh, so quick! It is comfortable and has lots of nice features. After having 1999 and 2002 Grand Am GTs, my GTO is an excellent step up and with all the great incentives offered, only very slightly more expensive. I also like the fact that there are very few on the road. Hopefully future models will incorporate suggested improvements so my next GTO will be even better!

    I keep havng minor things go wrong with it, like a noisy fan, or a broken door lock. But nothing major so far. No charge for any repairs.

  • love my GTO - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Took it on a 2 week trip out west in September, put 5400 miles on it in 14 days, and never got tired of being in the car. 15 hours the first day and 10 plus on other days, from 1000 feet up to 11,000 feet, car did not skip a beat and averaged 26.4 mpg for the trip, all at or above the speed limit, and in some moments very fast. I will never get rid of it!
