Pontiac re-released a GTO for the 2004 model year. For 2005 and 2006 the RWD car got hood
scoops, more horsepower, and dual exhausts that exit from both sides. For '04 - '06 the car
was being imported from Australia. The 2005-06 models have a larger 6.0 liter LS2 V8 engine.

Says Dave & Holly Eyster - "It's great to see all the GTO guys and gals out there that are submitting
their cars' pictures to you. It's kinda' unbelievable looking at all that have already made your site. I'm impressed
at all those that are in the car hobby with this particular car."
Gushes Ed - "This site is AWESOME!! I love it and was especially pleased to see how the Car Pics were even
categorized by colors as I was only interested in 1970 Orbit Oranges."
Says Robert D. - "Thanks for preserving the history and beauty of these cars."
Says Pete Aiello - "When [dad] was in college, he had his first '65 taken from him - only three years after
he bought it brand new. 40 years have passed and now I'm going to get it back for him on his 60th birthday."
Says Jason Daubert - "I used your zone and dealer code for my other 65 GTO (a rough one). Another example
of how useful your site is to the enthusiast." Steve fantasizes - "Great site, I could Live here!"
Says Jenn Tran - "I can only say a simple "thank you", because 1. Words can't really express my love
for GTOs and what you've done to foster a person's love for this gorgeous car 2. I've got to get back to searching
for the GTO sold out from under me (or a suitable replacement). Your site has made this 22 y.o. Texan VERY happy."
Says Spencer Schwab - "This is the best website ever! I visit at least 10 times every day and spend at least
half an hour on it each time."

Who knew the muscle cars of yesterday would be so popular again? Keep up the good work!"
Chortles Charles Barnett - "oh that great i love it n enjoy too longtime"
Says Ron Casey - "Great site. At 51 years of age I am getting the urge for another GOAT. I know I could never
find my original love or even if it still exists? I do search from time to time and it gets me all stirred up to
get one."
Says Timothy O'Dell - "Well I think this site is just what all GTO people need...a place to come and dream,
look at the others that are out there compare get ideas. Just to get my fix for the day, as the winter sets in and I
have to park it, I can open a window and drive someone else's for awhile. Thanks Sean!"
Says Sean's wife - "Get a grip. The Wives Of Car Freaks Support Group will be meeting with me at the '09 Nats in Dayton."
Send your GTO photos to me. I especially want photos of junkyard Goats and unfinished
project cars! Or Britney Spears baby. There is a large demand for bikini girls pictured in front
of GTO's too.. heh hehhh. Please be patient if you submit a picture. It
can take several MONTHS for the pic to finally appear on the site.
Do NOT re-send pictures. Sending me duplicate pics is very unappreciated.
In other words, don't send duplicate pictures to me!
