Pontiac GTO Overview
The Pontiac GTO may have been the first true muscle car, but that distinction has never been enough to assure it an uninterrupted production run. Already, the GTO has used up two lives. Introduced in 1964, the original went through six generations before dying off after the 1974 model year. Always a rear-wheel-drive car, it was sold as both a two-door hardtop and a convertible with an assortment of big V8s. Then, after a 30-year hiatus, Pontiac resurrected the GTO for the 2004 model year. There was no convertible body style this time, but the car was at least a proper rear-drive, two-door coupe. Power initially came from the 5.7-liter LS1 V8, but Pontiac swapped in the larger 6.0-liter LS2 V8 the following year. The LS2 took the GTO up to a cool 400 horsepower, but between the 2+2 coupe's high price and dull styling, Pontiac simply couldn't sell enough of them. As a result, the Pontiac GTO was discontinued after the 2006 model year, though we doubt this will be the last you'll see of this storied nameplate. While the original Pontiac GTO was nicknamed "the Goat" as much for the letters in its name as for its defiant, stripped-to-the-basics personality, the 2004-2006 incarnation was so much more refined and upscale that to call it a Goat would almost have been an insult.
