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.

  First feel evaluation - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By Gary Sr - October 23 - 10:00 am

  Still "new" but a great car so far...Rides and drives great, corners fine for what it is. It has plenty of "gitty up" and it seems to stop on a dime with no brake fade. I think it is a real kick to drive. It handles good and It looks a little deceiving then you mash it and it becomes this other car. Fit and finish is really good and my cars paint is flawless. I pretty much love it so far.

  I recently purchased the GTO. I cant believe the performance that this car puts out. I was originaly looking at Corvettes and BMWs, but when I test drove this car...WOW! Just with the exterior design had a little more punch to it. All and all, awsome car.

  not your average 32k car - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By Just a Workin Man - October 1 - 1:16 am

  I took over a lease in october 2005. It was a great deal or I would not have considered it. The lackluster styling of the car is a real fooler. Once I took it out for a drive, I was hooked! I owned a 1964 GTO, 4 barrel with auto transmission in 1968 & 1969 with fond memories, but WOW what a difference. all I can say is if you dont drive a new GTO you have no idea what you are missing. The plain Jane styling is somewhat of a blessing since the cops dont seem to notice the car at all, so far so good, no tickets yet! I did have it up to 135 MPH & there was alot left to go, but that was fast enough for me.

  Goin GTO - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By Tommyson - July 4 - 10:00 am

  Very comfortable while sitting in drivers seat. Downside to me is gas mileage and some styling. Although the performance makes up for any dissapointments.

  Great fun...for a weekend car.. - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By Xtranaut - February 2 - 4:40 am

  If you have anywhere from 12 to 20k to spend on a very fun car to drive on weekends and have a blast. But as a daily driver, it drinks gas and SHOULD burn premium if you want the performance when you need it. 350 LS1 can easily achieve over 400 horses with minor mods. Nice low naturally rumble. You will need all new suspension by 15k miles - maybe earlier. Read up on it. Handles well for a legendary straight liner but its heavy. Tires at come with are 245s with bland 17" wheels. This car has a dorky design that you get used to. Some people justify it as "stealth" or euro. Live with it. They dont make em anymore although I hear they will be reincarnated as a 2011 Caprice.

  Stealth performance - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By david - October 21 - 8:56 pm

  Car is an awesome driving car. Quite comfortable for 4, though getting into the spacious back seat can be a challenge. If a trip anywhere is on the agenda, pack light... as the GTO has a shockingly small trunk. I have the 6-speed, and it shifts OK except when cold. But what I really dislike is the forced 1-4 upshift under light throttle.

  Goat with Gremlins - 2004 Pontiac GTO
  By Louisville Car Fan - May 23 - 11:53 am

  As the owner of a Porsche and Nissan Z, I was innitially impressed by the quality and performance of the GTO. The power and torque are great, but the gas mileage should and could be much better. Im averaging about 15 miles per gallon mixed driving. Only 20 on the highway. The six speed manual forces you to shift from first to 4th at certain speeds. I find the feature annoying and dangerous. Its very distracting and requires too much effort. I hope no one has an accident. Secondly, my glove box fell off with fewer than 900 miles on the car. Bad sign. Additionally, the defroster does not defog the driver/passenger windows. And the paint is flawed on the front bumper.
