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.

  • Fun and Fast - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Great car all around so far. Plenty of power with decent mileage. Six speed is a lot of fun; the only way to go. Havent owned long enough to gauge reliabiltiy, but to date very good with 9000 miles. Stereo is good with fair equalizer features (would like to do more manual adjusting). Front seat motors are very slow so backseat entry is a pain. Trunk is small but dont really use it anyway. Front seats are excellent.

  • What a Machine - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    No matter what the magazines say, this car was worth every penny! Ive gotten alot of positive comments on its looks, and the enterior is really nice. And of course the power is the icing on the cake. The things I look for when purchasing a car are: Looks, power, good radio, and quality. This car has them all. With only 18,000 built a year, for 3 years, Im totally happy that I have mine now.

  • I Love My GTO? - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    This is the best car I have ever owned. I just love the power and handling. The interior is very comfortable. I get looks every time I go out. I have seen people almost get in an accident while looking at my car. I love my GTO.

  • 04 GTO - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    I bought this car with 20 miles on it and have loved it ever since. Decent fuel mileage for the power. Comfortable and affordable, I paid under 23k for it, technically used but new. I didnt realize all the wheel hop everyones talking about. CAGS is annoying and there is slightly too much body roll, but what do you expect for the ride you get. Brakes could be improved as well as the sound system. Overall very easy car to drive and Im sure glad I got the 6 speed. Love the styling, and I just laugh at the people who say it looks like a cavalier b/c they dont have any taste. Overall a great recommedation and car for the money.

  • Goat is back, Mustangs cry... - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Of all the bad things Ive read and heard about the styling this car packs a punch. Not to mention the aftermarket parts are a plenty and this car holds alot of power! Love the car, I cant get enough of crusing in it. People dont really know what it is and I get questions a lot. I have no problem showing them what it does and I bet they like the way my back end looks pulling away!

  • Thumbs Up - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    I waited until I got some miles on my new GTO before submitting a review. I now have over three thousands miles on the odometer and I have not had one problem or any squeaks/rattles with this car. The car is very quick (I have the automatic) and comfortable. I can drive the GTO like a regular car 98% of the time (freeway commuting) I even have room for a baby’s seat in the back. When I want a sports car all I have to do is hit the throttle. This is the best car I have ever had in my driveway. I think the GTO most practical sports car on the market. I made the right choice.

    this is the best car i have ever had in my entire life

  • Just a cool car - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    Great Car, does everything right. Sound is awesome, really adds to the experience of driving the car. This car begs to be driven. Torque up the wazoo, without high rpm driving, so it feels fast at all times.

  • A Great Goat - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    I bought my 04 goat 6 months ago and it has been a great car. Performance is excellent, Not a mustang around wants any part of it !!! We traveled about 150 miles with a Mercedes running with us from speeds 90 to 110 mph and average 23.4 mpg. yea 23.4 at those speeds I couldnt ask for a car more fun to drive for $35000.00..... Thanks Pontiac

    Fun car to drive. Hugs the road well. Excellent exceleration. I had a couple of cosmetic problems but they were taken care of at the dealership. Even though everyone is complaining about the exterior design every one seems to notice the car. The only complaint that I have is that I only got 15K on the original tires even with the traction control enabled all the time.
