Overview & Reviews

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.

• Powerful V8, rear-wheel drive, predictable handling from fully independent suspension, loaded with standard features.

• Forgettable styling, numerous standard features make it an expensive proposition.

  04 GTO experiences - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By GTOfan - September 18 - 12:50 am

  While some dislike the body style as "bland", I found it to be exactly what I wanted - no fake fender vents, no exaggerated body lines. Since the car was only built in high-performance versions, there are no "Barbie-Doll" GTOs out there like the Mustang. If you see a GTO, you know its hot. You dont have to check for a medallion or emblem on the fender. And the "plain" appearance makes it less likely that anyone will be able to identify the car as they watch your taillights disappear over the horizon. :)

  Currently at 20k miles-loved the car for the first 15k, but going downhill. Electrical issues, transmission is giving off spinning noise in neutral, u- joint not sounding healthy, front end vibrations, coolant warning light coming on, automatic lighting (int/ext) has failed. Grateful to have leased instaed of bought.

  Great fun to drive! Im taking a killing at the gas pump but hey, I knew that when I bought it. Get it up around 75mph and this Goat really begs for more. 100mph comes up very quick. Pontiacs got a winner! Just go down to your local dealer, bite the bullit, and buy one.

  NICE RIDE - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By DARKITEC - December 3 - 2:00 am

  My only complaint is the manual trans skip shift feature. Its not the easiest thing to get used to Ive been shifting 1,3,5 for years. Im hoping that someone dosent run into the back of me while Im struggeling to find a usable gear.

  First Impression - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By Eddybauer1 - October 17 - 10:00 am

  I thought the car has a boring exterior, I thought the interior was really well designed, but the audio controls on the steering wheel felt very cheap, and so did some of the interior hard ware, the sun visors feels like they were made out of card board that were covered with cloth, The seats were top quality on the other hand. I have no doubt that the power train will hold up, I just dont think that 31k is what this car is worth. Save a few bucks, and put a ls1 v8 in a Saturn L300 AKA Catera, and you get 2 extra doors free, that basically is what this car is.

  My Goat - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By dyjack - July 12 - 10:00 am

  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
  By 69blue - July 12 - 10:00 am

  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.

  Fast, Fun Head-Turner - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By pscott - May 29 - 11:36 am

  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!

  Nothin But a Good Thing - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By Vader953 - November 4 - 1:26 pm

  Im soooo impressed. Ive wanted one for a year now. Found a black one with Red Int./6 speed for a STEAL. I have a Vette and am in a Vette club, and this car is equal in performance. The inside sold me as much as the performance. I am in love. I look forward to going to work in the morning now. Im most suprised about the build quality. Just like an import. Handling is amazing for a non- Vette. Ride is a bit rough, but well worth it. You have to be an acrobat to access the rear seats, but they are roomy and usable once inside!
