I take that back, I think they look great on there in red. Definitely has a more aggressive look, like a GTO deserves lol.

Well of course the original - not the new Corvette that they are pushing the "Grand Sport" name with both fenders with stripes - fake!!!!

Hi `Mike, I personally like it better without the Red Decal Stripe, but it's not mine (wish it was 4-Sure)...You are lucky to have one of the few of this limited produced GTO's
Below is addtional infor for member's to view more & read about this special made `Beast


Pontiac GTO - The Pontiac GTO nameplate was revived for the 2004 model year, now as an American-market version of the Australian-built Holden Monaro.






The fact that the new GTO is based on an entirely different vehicle (the "Old Goat" being a muscle car and the Holden Monaro being an Australian sports car) The revival was prompted by former GM chairman Bob Lutz, who drove a Holden Monaro while on a business trip in Australia. The GTO is produced in Australia, and is equipped with the Chevrolet Corvette's LS1 V8 engine with a choice of a 6-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic. The same model is sold in the United Kingdom as a Vauxhall and as a Chevrolet in the Middle East.





Sales of the 2004 GTO 12,000 per year. The optional hood scoops slated for the 2005 model year were rushed into production in an effort to increase the sportiness of the car's image. There was a Pulse Red package, available only in 2004.

I like them but I think they look a little too close together. The silver in the middle looks a bit small.
