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.

  • My GTO - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    I went from a 2004 Chrysler 300M Special to the GTo and all I can say is wow. This car is definitely more "me". Black on black, and yes, its an auto, but that just makes her a quick performer. I took her on a 1200mi road trip to Tucson and back, averaged just shy of 22mpg, and let me tell you, I wasnt going "slow" by any stretch of the imagination. In this car, thats impossible. When you turn the car on and hear that rumble, its simply intoxicating. When you rev the engine, people look. And Autozone employees LOVE to fawn over it. But so do I.

  • A car to buy ...Trust me - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    This is the kind of vehicle that you enjoy to drive on the road. It demands attention and respect in eveyones eyes. At first peopel will look and then look even harder to see what it is. This machine in my mind is the equivilent to any overseas vehicle that would like to tango. For the price it is the best you can ask for, pure muscle and respect. I think the only downfall is the sound system could have done better. But if you are thinking of getting a performance car forget the foriegn and go american--------- I have the kills to prove it.

  • True Muscle - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    This is a car that deserves the GTO badge. I may only be 23, but I have been in cars a long time and have driven a lot of them. When I heard that GM was comming back out with the old Goat I thought that I would see if it would compare with the old classics. And I was suprised by the power and agility that GM has put in this car.

  • Practically Awesome - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Practical and an awesome amount of fun. I cant get over how much torque is always available anytime you need it. And that exhaust note - really cool. Extremely fun to drive and a very comfortable cruiser on the highway. Best seats I have tried. Fit and finish very, very good especially the interior.

  • Changed my life - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    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.

    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!
