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.

    Great car to own. Gear shift is not as smooth as the Vette or other sports cars, but is still good. Handles well on dry pavement, but gets loose easy. Not good in areas with snow. It is great quick and is truly a sleeper. Most people dont notice the car until they hear the rumble. This a great car for a mature adult. DO NOT BUY FOR ANYONE THAT IS NOT MATURE. Performance, as stated before, is unbelievable. This car rates well in its class, but dont think it is as fast as Vette or Viper. It can be modified to push 600 hp for $6000 at some custom shops. Thank you for your time.

    I put a deposit down on this car 18 months ago without even seeing a picture of the new GTO. Were just thrilled with the actual vehicle. The fit and finish are supurb as is the quality of the interior. It is as exciting to drive as my first GTO was in 1964. The six speed is very smooth. The car is exceptional in all respects and Bob Lutz should be commended.

  • WOW - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Anyone who complains about this car must not have drove one. I bought mine and love it. Smooth but responsive ride and loads of power. Not many cars advise you to shift from 1st to 4th if you are not getting on it. Interior is superb. Exterior styling is sleek and looks great. I know it is not the eye grabbe the trans am was, but at every stop light, people stop and looks at what i am driveing. I have no complaints.

  • It was perfect - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    The riding was flauless. Ive always grown up in a AMerican made family and the Pontiac GTO has had nothing but improvements from its older models. It can still live up to its standards.

  • Can You Say .....Sleeper - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Dont let the tame exterior of this car fool you. I am very excited with the performance and handling of my new GTO. This car drives like a true dynomo Everything from the the nice deep rumble sound to the wheels burning rubber. I also think that this car can be an everyday driver as well. Perfect combination for me!

  • Fantastic Car - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    Got a great deal on the car and could not be happier. Worth way more than what I paid. About 9000 miles on the car and no problems. By far the best car Ive ever owned. Great handling, greater power. I am costantly being stoped and asked about the NEW GTO. A friend has a 2004 Corvette and the GTO is pretty darn close in fun factor.

  • what a car - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    Not only is this car fast and powerful, but it is one of the funnest cars I have ever driven. There is no other car u can get for 30 Gs that gives you the speed, comfort, and nice interior of the Pontiac GTO.

  • I love my GTO! - 2004 Pontiac GTO
    By -

    I love my GTO and its Performance. The interior is well done and I like the red suede and red leather mixed in with black leather. The red stiching mixed with black leather on the stering wheel and shift nob are great details. It also does not matter what gear you are in using the six speed manual, all you have to do is give it some gas and you have fairly instant get up and go. The handling takes a bit to get use to but settles in and corners very well. My prior car is a 2000 Honda Civic Si.

    Not a winter off road car.

  • The Goat Returns! - 2004 Pontiac GTO

    The 2004 GTO is an awesome car! I actually like the understated exterior look. The interior is very well done, with excellent head room, and comfortable front and rear seating. The Blaupunkt stereo is also a nice touch. However, for me, the new GTO is all about performance. I have the six- speed manual, and have found the power and ride of my car to be simply fantastic. Bottom line, you are getting Corvette-like performance for $20,000 less. For me, this car delivers the goods at a fair price.
