I have always wanted a late model GTO, and I finally bought a 2006 GTO. These cars are very fun to drive and I always get a stare and inquiring comments at the gas station, because they are not common to see these days.
spectre977 for sure man. I wanted to buy this one so badly but it needs some lovin’ and the owner was still wanting 10k for it. But I did get to drive it for a couple of days
@@an_auto_addiction5742 u drove it and gave it back or something why god ur a pos u shouldn't do that shit but of course ur a human you don't give a shit
dog person hey I hated to give it back. I wanted to buy it and restore it. But for a 10k price it was not something I could do. I try to save them if I can. I need to win the lottery so I can save them all. Lol Thanks for watching.
I have one 27,988 on it 06 such fun car now feels like a classic daily driver... feels more special and still looks new... or modern compared to gen 5 and 6 camaros and even mustangs...
I have the uk version, Vauxhall Monaro vxr 6.0 ltr, in red. I believe They only imported just under a thousand here from Australia. So quite a rare car here. And I love it, the positive attention it gets is great and I love driving it. I spent most the week thinking “why did I buy this “ then the odd day I do take it out im like yea I know why I got it 😆 awesome car
My son has an 06 in Torrid Red. Looks like the one in your video. He has restored it and it's worth every penny. These are going up in value fast. My advice is to get one while you can! Prices are going to sky rocket and have already.
Awesome car brother. I got a 2004 and I just cant get rid of it. It's one of those cars that just sticks with you. I have a small channel with it and a few other things. No lie swear to god Jay leno autographed my speedometer
Gears And Guns dude that’s awesome I wanna get one one day. I think the GTO is one of the forgotten ones. But man it is a great car with a lot of power. Wish they would bring it back. That would be awesome. Thanks for watching my channel
@@jorgealvarado3512 lol thanks man. Hes a pretty cool guy. I asked him if he ever did signed a speedometer before he laughed and said no. I think it's in one of my videos , I'll look and put the link here if you wanna see it
When I heard that Pontiac was remaking the gto(I guess this was late 90's maybe 2000) I was so fired up, I couldn't wait i told my wife when it comes out im buying one, then it came out..... and it looked like a dodge neon! I have never been so disappointed in a car in my life. A classic 60's muscle car reissued and it looks like a compact car I still haven't forgiven GM and I still haven't purchased a GM besides 1 used car.
Zach Hanson sweet man I am working on doing another video of a 2005. They are cool cars. Check out my video on my buddies purple SS it’s super clean. Thanks for watching my channel
People always get these cars twisted when making videos the 2004 GTO had the 5.7 LS1 and the 2005 2006 had the 6.0 LS2. Now the tail end of 2004 Pontiac/Holden made 800 and some say only 794 of these still born 40th Anniversary Edtion W40 package Color is Pulse Red, Red embroidery on the seats, and a grey gauge cluster. To check and see if you have one or found one unzip the bottom of seats and it will show it on the tag how do I know cause I own one.
Yes it most certainly is worth buying one if it is in good Condition and low miles and you can afford it particular the 6.0 and proper dual exhaust 2005 or 2006 hey go for it even the 2004 5.7 can get rebuilt with improvements and that tailpipes that exit on one side only there are places that can correct that for sure
I can't wait to trade in my charger and get one of these.. They seem like they are fairly reliable cars and the LS is far better than the ticking machine I have now. I'm looking at a 2006 with around 30k miles for 16 grand. That seems to be the going rate for them. I can find 2004s with 100k+ miles for half the cost but what's the point.
Vince agreed. Find a clean low mileage one and it’s worth it. I really wanted this one but I figured it would cost 6-7 grand to get it back to where it needs to be. Thanks for watching I appreciate it
I suspect the ECM is/was bad. My completely stock, with 28000 miles did the same thing and after I replaced the ECM it runs great. I tried deleting and reprogramming but it didn't last longg
I owned a Monaro here in the U.K. for nearly ten years, and no car before or since got under my skin like it. I'm seriously looking at getting another, but they're getting rare now. 🍻👍🏻
Well, I went and bought one. Absolutely mint 2004 model year in Phantom Black, upgraded AP brakes, exhaust, MAF intake and a tune. 45k miles and I paid a reasonable £10k, about $12.5k. Happy days! 🤘🏼😊
It took until 2022 before her clear coat shed for me. I'm not sure how to go next.. just wax it to protect it or have it repainted or top coated with new clear? F that. I will wash and wax her until someone or something runs into her and HAVE to have her repainted. She is aging well.
As far as the tune, if it was a canned Diablosport tune, there is no issue with what you described. More than likely, it was a CMR tune to where the designated tuner made an adjustment that made it do this. I had a canned tune from Diablo on both my 2005 and my 2006 and never had an issue, and I had a CMR tuner do both of my vehicles, and I never had this issue. Long story short, the tuner didn't tune it right.
Get one. You won’t regret it. They were ahead of their time and are still respectable 15 years later. They don’t have Honda reliability but they are very reliable for what the are.
Wow! For that model, there is no excuse to be in such a paint peeling shape as it is. Hopefully you'll find a better condition. $10K is too much for the condition it was in.
Tony Wolf sweet , my neighbor just bought a silver one that is mint. Thanks for watching my channel and the input. Much appreciated. Have a great weekend
10k isn't too much for a 6.0 GTO with 35k and a clean interior it sat outside that is why the paint is rough but it is priced a good 5-10 grand less than a clean one with the same miles that is more than enough for a super nice paint job. I'm always more concerned with the driveline and how the car drives and runs vs how it looks that is more important to me. You can always have a car painted...you can drive a car when it needs paint but you can't when it needs a motor or trans lol.
@@an_auto_addiction5742 I'm late to this video lol but i recently found one at s dealership for 33,383miles and they want $23,500. Is it worth the money?
Nothing is bulletproof...but yes overall reliable. LS2 engine is great if unmodified. Suspension will need maintenance with higher miles. Haven't heard of oil consumption issues but if was abused then sure I can see the rings letting some oil pass by.
@@an_auto_addiction5742 im sure if it was being sold by private seller it would of been around there...dealerships like to sell them for more than their worth
If Pontiac survived Holden would have still survived, because when Pontiac went away, it kind of wedged the Australian plant until the Chevy SS came out.
Just got a 05 I like it more than my 06 daytona hell of alot faster but does seem like da cheaply made in inside wat kinda super chargers are available for the 6.0???
Dylan Hanes thanks for watching my channel. Congrats on the new ride. There is a bunch of companies that make supercharger systems price can range from 3500-8000 depending upon the brand.
It's a Pontiac first and foremost....all Pontiac's have F-uped clear coat peeling. From what I can gather they skimped on properly painting the entire line of Pontiac cars. it has like half the amount of clear coat as compared to other cars. You'd think though as this being their top of the line they'd paint it properly with the proper amount of clear coat. Pontiac's don't do well in the sun!
Ken Hoey hey man I’m with ya I know that the guy bought it new and the first five years had it detailed all of the time. Then the paint started failing and I think he just gave up on it. Thanks man for watching
hes in florida and red always gets beat by the sun...these GTOs were built in austrailia no where near the rest of the pontiac line except g8.... gm factories painted all there cars in succession pontiac saturn chevy olds etc all went down the same line and through the same paint system....i have the same red GTO and my paint is still in excellent shape...im in massachseutts and we dont get the direct sun all day long like florida
@@AndrewPruteanu Look it up yourself and then decide for yourself. The only people who 2/10 of a second is going to matter to are people who are going to race and they will change shit anyways. At that point it turns into a matter of cash and tuning, not a few cubic inches, thus becoming a moot point. Do you want a race car or are you trying to keep it in factory condition? Can't have both.
Dre Mill I think they will go up a little depending on the conditions. The Pontiac g8 gxp are probably the mostly valuable in that line up. Thanks for watching my channel
No way, been a salesman for years and just sold an 2006 with 58k miles in great shape 6.0l stick shift, leather for 8999$ clean title. I would have bought it but don't want a red one and didnt know how to wet sand at that time.
The clear coat peeling on these GTO's is horrible. No matter how you care for them the clear coat will start peeling eventually, over time. Mine is a 2004, bought new, that I cared for and waxed 5-6 times a year. Even with all that cleaning and waxing, in the last year or so the gas tank and rear trunk went from great condition to awful, with clear coat peeling. IMO the only real solution to this is a repaint or a wrap. The paint from Holden SUCKS!
I love my GTO and I will never sell it no matter how much gas it drinks. Buy it and invest in the minor and major qwerks these cars have and you have s nice rare muscle car. Someday it will be worth a lot like the JZ 2 Supra of the nineties
U should slap yourself for saying something IDIOTIC like that a stupra is a UGLY Piece Of SHIT toyota GARBAGE people are Very STUPID & DUMB for paying a lot of money for a piece of SHIT toyota stupra that is good for nothing else but being drove into a river or to a junkyard where anything that toyota makes belongs
It's not going to gain worth like the supra because it wasn't in any movies. And it's just not loud and shouty enough to be in any movies. Just a few months after getting my 05, Someone told me its value was about to shoot up because he saw one in the preview for the F,F 8 movie. I was fit to be tied. I was stomping around the hangar for the next 2 hours, I was so mad. I wanted this car because it was understated and most people woldn't even recognize it or know what it had in it. I like it because it's the Meg Griffin of muscle cars. Then I learned the car he saw was actually a newer BMW, and all was right with the world again.
Peter Lee you guys still have some fast cars though..... right?.... thanks for watching.... when gas goes back up here like it did in 2007 it will drive the v8 prices down for sure
Under-rated factory claim horsepower.. gm has had ls1 engines about 30 horsepower short of dyno test of stock motor. I believe torque is under too.. of actual power.
AF- Get a GTO if you want the best performance vehicle, and something that isn't a dime a dozen. Get the challenger if you want a trunk, and want to turn more heads. Forget about that other stuff you mentioned.
Anytime you buy a chrysler product, you automatically get a lifetime of electrical issues free of charge (wanted or not). Chrysler has not made a reliable vehicle since before Lee Iacocca.
Fuck i see all that clear coat peel. Fuckin RIP! I'm in the process of getting a FULL ON respray done to my car. Fuckin worth it though gm clear was TRASH
If you let a red car sit outside it is gonna look rough especially 15 years old regardless of the milage that just means it wasnt driven dont mean it wasnt neglected lol
I want to buy this 2004 original version (sadly that means auto transmission) because it is pretty rare. It is obviously fun to drive but the original is low price (the one I am eyeing is) but the auto is a setback. Minor enough of one, though, to where getting an original 2004 GTO is worth it.
Trombone Triceratops sweet man. Stay tuned a guy I work with has a 04 manual and when it is nice out I’m going to do a video on it. Thanks for watching my channel
@@an_auto_addiction5742 Your channel rocks! The original has both exhaust pipes all the way on the left and no hood scoops. It sells usually for over 15K but I found one for less in good condition.
Trombone Triceratops I appreciate your support. Sometimes it is hard to keep filming then get an awesome comment from a viewer like this. Means a lot. Thanks 🙏
The automatics are actually faster stock and easier to mod to make much faster than the 6 speeds. Why do you think most drag racers have automatics? lol
@@an_auto_addiction5742 10k? Heck no. He's definitely dreaming. He wont see it with all those condition issues you can get a really nice clean one for not much more money.
Rich H yeah Pontiac could of made it a little more retro like the mustang around that time. But I guess it’s because they outsourced it. Lo😃. Thanks for watching 👍
BOONIQUE it does have some room in the interior and comfy to drive. I wish I could of bought this one for the right price and saved it . Returning it to its former glory. Have a great day
Rich H- The gto's styling is just sensible instead of radical. That's what I like about it. It's classy. It actually derives from a luxury European sedan platform. The gto is a 2 door Opel Omega (Google image it). The Opel Omega sedan was imported to the u.s. in the late 90s and badged as a Cadillac (Catera). The Gto even shares some parts with the German imported Cadillac Catera. That's why the gto has a more upscale feel than most American cars of its time, and a comfy usable back seat. It has way more in common with the older BMW M coupes than it does a sunfire, Celica, or cavalier (style wise & power/drive train wise). Don't be silly.
It definitely doesn't look like a muscle car, but as someone who owned one I can promise it runs like one. Mine was an 04 with just the 350 hp and 365lb ft of torque, but it would move when I wanted it to, and was a bit of a sleeper because alot of people didnt realize it had an ls1 corvette engine under the hood

Depending on the condition of the paint and interior seems about in the ball park. They are getting harder to find and prices continue to go up
@@an_auto_addiction5742 thanks
No way, been a salesman for years and just sold an 2006 with 58k miles in great shape 6.0l stick shift, leather for 8999$ clean title. I would have bought it but don't want a red one and didnt know how to wet sand at that time.
@@markdelamotte9656 well you got screwed on commission. Today that car is over 20k
Is it worth buying a 05 with 56k miles for 15k?
Yes depending on condition.
Got an 06 with 3,700 miles on it.
THEY ARE AN AWESOME CAR. ENJOY IT/ THANKS FOR WATCHING
The clear coat peeling on these GTO's is horrible. No matter how you care for them the clear coat will start peeling eventually, over time.
Mine is a 2004, bought new, that I cared for and waxed 5-6 times a year.
Even with all that cleaning and waxing, in the last year or so the gas tank and rear trunk went from great condition to awful, with clear coat peeling.
IMO the only real solution to this is a repaint or a wrap. The paint from Holden SUCKS!
Pretty good shape??????? Sun baked AF
Paul Cerio yup wish the guy would sell it reasonably. Oh well . Thanks for watching
It doesn’t need paint. It just needs a good paint correction. I do them all the time for people.
Sweet . Save people tons of money verse painting it. Thanks for watching my channel
@An_Auto _Addiction do you know if this is for sale
Mohamed Kazan I haven’t heard from the owner in a while now.
I love my GTO and I will never sell it no matter how much gas it drinks. Buy it and invest in the minor and major qwerks these cars have and you have s nice rare muscle car. Someday it will be worth a lot like the JZ 2 Supra of the nineties
U should slap yourself for saying something IDIOTIC like that a stupra is a UGLY Piece Of SHIT toyota GARBAGE people are Very STUPID & DUMB for paying a lot of money for a piece of SHIT toyota stupra that is good for nothing else but being drove into a river or to a junkyard where anything that toyota makes belongs
It's not going to gain worth like the supra because it wasn't in any movies. And it's just not loud and shouty enough to be in any movies. Just a few months after getting my 05, Someone told me its value was about to shoot up because he saw one in the preview for the F,F 8 movie. I was fit to be tied. I was stomping around the hangar for the next 2 hours, I was so mad. I wanted this car because it was understated and most people woldn't even recognize it or know what it had in it. I like it because it's the Meg Griffin of muscle cars. Then I learned the car he saw was actually a newer BMW, and all was right with the world again.
Karl Smith sounds like you been smoked by a Supra 😂😂 them machines will dust anything
Is it sold? I’m in Florida. I’d like more info??? How do I message you?
Martin Pilat I will call the owner and let you know . Thanks for watching
Going tp buy one this weekend 😊
Congrats
Short answer yes, why? because they're rare and reliable
agreed
Wow low mileage but horrible paint, my 2000 C5 has a way better paint but I'll definitely buy one. silver looks way cooler.
Raul Cortez your C5 does look good. Thanks for watching my channel. I appreciate ya
Yes.
You can tell the guy doesn't care for his car
KamronLsx for sure it just baked in the FL sun for 13 years. Thanks for checking in I appreciate it

Peter Lee you guys still have some fast cars though..... right?.... thanks for watching.... when gas goes back up here like it did in 2007 it will drive the v8 prices down for sure
What about Aston Martin?
Im looking at a 2006 GTO It needs an engine but the guy wants 6900 for it i think thats too much money
Karl Smith too much.
Karl Smith how many miles and what is the condition of the rest of the car a mint GTO with low miles will sell for 12-15.
Under-rated factory claim horsepower.. gm has had ls1 engines about 30 horsepower short of dyno test of stock motor. I believe torque is under too.. of actual power.
Oh shit he put gas in his tank
Bruh it’s a commodore with a badge swap
dude im gettin somin new with tax return and money saved .my options are 03-09 hemi charger/chrysler300,or gto,or dakota rt
Awesome man keep me posted, thanks for the support.
AF- Get a GTO if you want the best performance vehicle, and something that isn't a dime a dozen. Get the challenger if you want a trunk, and want to turn more heads. Forget about that other stuff you mentioned.
BOONIQUE thanks for watching
GTO does not disappoint
Anytime you buy a chrysler product, you automatically get a lifetime of electrical issues free of charge (wanted or not). Chrysler has not made a reliable vehicle since before Lee Iacocca.
I’m about to purchase one with 20k miles on it for $2k from a dumbass college kid it’s in great condition all the way down to the paint job.
Lmao did you steal it from him yet?
Help me too good to be true
@@ludens1526 damnnn homie that sucks
$3 grand
I'd rather have a classic GTO over a new GTO. I once had a 1969 GTO convertible.
Larry Launstein Jr I also like the classic GTO. Never got to drive one but would like to one day. Thanks for watching my channel
I'd rather have the newer
@@an_auto_addiction5742, what I didn't like about the newer GTO was that it didn't look like a GTO.
They are sure ain't worth 20 grand and up, I would rather take 2010 or newer Camaro SS for that same exact price with less miles
They are worth 20 grand and up but no more than 30. Has to be ultra low mileage though.

Fuck i see all that clear coat peel. Fuckin RIP! I'm in the process of getting a FULL ON respray done to my car. Fuckin worth it though gm clear was TRASH
Nope. Never buying one ever again...
Hot air intake big mistake with those
thanks for the advice, thanks for watching the channel
I dont believe the mileage on that thing. It looks like that thing is beat on the outside.
Patrick Rafferty dude I know but the guy bought it at the dealer new and just let it sit in the sun and bake. Good powertrain. 😂. Thanks for watching
If you let a red car sit outside it is gonna look rough especially 15 years old regardless of the milage that just means it wasnt driven dont mean it wasnt neglected lol
Did he ever sell it
fahim black haven’t seen him in a while so I’m not sure. Thanks for watching my channel
U do have a way to contact him I’m in Florida and been looking around for one with lower miles
@@fahimblack3925 what part of Florida you are?? Down here in Miami there are some of these for sale

I want to buy this 2004 original version (sadly that means auto transmission) because it is pretty rare. It is obviously fun to drive but the original is low price (the one I am eyeing is) but the auto is a setback. Minor enough of one, though, to where getting an original 2004 GTO is worth it.
Trombone Triceratops sweet man. Stay tuned a guy I work with has a 04 manual and when it is nice out I’m going to do a video on it. Thanks for watching my channel
@@an_auto_addiction5742 Your channel rocks! The original has both exhaust pipes all the way on the left and no hood scoops. It sells usually for over 15K but I found one for less in good condition.
Trombone Triceratops I appreciate your support. Sometimes it is hard to keep filming then get an awesome comment from a viewer like this. Means a lot. Thanks 🙏
The automatics are actually faster stock and easier to mod to make much faster than the 6 speeds. Why do you think most drag racers have automatics? lol
Nice.. don't hear much on em.
ABIam? ImAB! For sure. Seems to be less and less on the road
@@an_auto_addiction5742 True, that why they stand out if seen.
Of course it’s worth it if you like to consistently fix ur car lol! Jk I love mine. Check out some of my videos. Thanks in advanced
That thing is in terrible condition. It needs paint work etc.
DrawTimeInc yup. That’s why I didn’t buy it. Wanted to because of the mileage but the guy wanted 10k . I was thinking 5to6 tops. Thanks for watching
@@an_auto_addiction5742 10k? Heck no. He's definitely dreaming. He wont see it with all those condition issues you can get a really nice clean one for not much more money.
2005 Gto are 5.7 and with 350 hp the 2006 Gto are the 6.0 with 400 hp
thats incorrect.
2004 Gto 5.7 liter LS1
2005-2006 6.0 LS 2 engine
Do this car a favor: take it off life support and let it join the other Tin Indians in their demise.
This car is beat to shit
Why did they make them so ugly...
bluegreensubmarine I wish they would of made them a little more retro like the Camaro that would have been awesome
🐐 = ugly honda
I don’t really like mine. Lol

Dillan Phillips 🤷♂️🤣🤣 thanks for watching my channel
I like pontiacs but this car does not looks like a muscle car? more like a cross between a Celica and a Sunfire??? 🤔 Lol. 😂
Rich H yeah Pontiac could of made it a little more retro like the mustang around that time. But I guess it’s because they outsourced it. Lo😃. Thanks for watching 👍
BOONIQUE it does have some room in the interior and comfy to drive. I wish I could of bought this one for the right price and saved it . Returning it to its former glory. Have a great day
Rich H- The gto's styling is just sensible instead of radical. That's what I like about it. It's classy. It actually derives from a luxury European sedan platform. The gto is a 2 door Opel Omega (Google image it). The Opel Omega sedan was imported to the u.s. in the late 90s and badged as a Cadillac (Catera). The Gto even shares some parts with the German imported Cadillac Catera. That's why the gto has a more upscale feel than most American cars of its time, and a comfy usable back seat. It has way more in common with the older BMW M coupes than it does a sunfire, Celica, or cavalier (style wise & power/drive train wise). Don't be silly.
Is this the most important thing?!.... :) I think things like hp, torque car suspension gear ratio... are more important.
It definitely doesn't look like a muscle car, but as someone who owned one I can promise it runs like one. Mine was an 04 with just the 350 hp and 365lb ft of torque, but it would move when I wanted it to, and was a bit of a sleeper because alot of people didnt realize it had an ls1 corvette engine under the hood
It’s dealer he put cheap gas in it
I bet they want too much for it too
