That's not a GTO.
That's just a new Pontiac wearing an old High School Letter Sweater!

This is a GTO:

That's goota be one of the better GTO's I've seen. Guy at the track had a twin turbo setup on a newer GTO, looked VERY clean. 'Bout time for some spray right?

Ah, man! Seeing the 06 GTO pics gives me mixed feelings. I love the 04-06 GTO's. Wanted to buy one, but we can't get them over here in Canada. Can't even import one over from the U.S. Freakin government won't allow 'em for some stupid made up reason of not meeting emmisions standards. Which is crap, since Cali has more strict emmissions.

Nice car man! Congrats on the win.

The 04 - 06 GTOs are great perfomance cars, but honestly the look like a cobalt or Cavalier.Pontiac could have done a better job of designing the body of this car. The look of the car is the only reason sales were bad.

I always thought the body of the GTO looked like a 2004 Grand Am on steroids.
The 2004-2006 GTO looks theway it does because it's a slightly modified Holden Monaro.
Like the one pictured below.
The new GTO's were not a Pontiac design at all. It's an Australian design. That's possibly another reason they didn't go over well with traditional Pontiac guys.
