  • who gives a shit if its a monaro or not. THE LS2 INSIDE OF IT, THE WHOLE REASON THE CARS BADASS is AMERICAN MADE MUSCLE ;)

  • @YamahaShitsHondas they could do so much better than the pushrod v8 its not all that good

  • @supersmashist yeah. How many people are going to search gto launch with wheelspin and some smoke? Its a gto burnout.

  • thats not a burnout its called a launch with wheelspin

  • NICE!

  • LS2 FTW!

  • MONARO

  • GTO's are sexy!!

  • HOLDEN MONARO!!!!!!! not a gto its australian car mate !!!!!!!!

  • @A94hunter it is the pontiac GTO, but i DO agree that it is COMPLETELY resembles the Monaro. eh :\

  • @rangrhardys it probably resembles the monaro because it was built from it as the aussies will tell you we stole the car design from them

  • @badaz62b they did not steal the design, Holden is a division of General Motors just like Pontiac, Cadillac and Chevrolet, thats like saying Acura steals designs from Honda.......

  • @STC42O i know and its called platform sharing, but if you talk to an aussie they say we can design shit which is false and that all we can do is take their designs which is again false

  • @STC42O GM has a "majority voting stock" not "ownership stock" of Holden, GM does not own Holden it has its own stock name any symbol, even on GMs webpage Holden is not listed under GM brands. This car is as much a GM as a Geo Metro!

  • @rangrhardys well of couse it does that whats its based on they this is america for import since 1993 the gto is assebled in south australia then sent to the states

  • ugh it such a good sounding car. i wish it looked a little more like a muscle car, i dont think the exterior does the engine any justice.

  • @UncleSam493 I agree that the styling is subdued but I actually quite like it. I think its better than the 'OMFG LOOK AT ME' styled muscle cars.

  • @SicariusBG07 true but thats what muscle cars are all about lol. i guess it doesnt need to be really flashy, but give it some better styling atleast. 

  • Modern musclecars are nothing compare to the old ones, but I still like it

  • Hey do you know if that is the stock exhaust ? I am thinking of buying the stock exhaust from a guy to put on my 2500HD 6.0l truck XD

  • @tt2ent Thats not stock, prob flows.

  • not a huge fan of american cars but ahh man this car has me making a bigger mess in my pants than almost any other car. i sooo want onneeee

  • @terryn194 it australian not usa made its a holden the bye and im port them cozz there better then theres

  • @A94hunter i only understood the beginning of what you said, the rest didnt make sense but oh damn, i did not know that ha

  • @A94hunter i hope you do know that holden is owned by GM which is USA

  • @tbelobrad19 we know that but still does not make it american because its owned by there company

  • @terryn194 not american

  • @nickster1318 oh yeah its aussie right?

  • @terryn194 yes

  • That sounds so good, outta hand in first and second. In my dads LS2gto It would break loose in 4th gear at 110mph.

  • Ive been trying to decide if i want a 2008 Mustang Shelby GT500 or a 2006 GTO! Well that video made me make my decision! GTO for sure

  • @tylerjbaal gtos get better mpg and you dont see alot of them

  • @tylerjbaal Big mistake!

  • i think they are wicked fast but I just dont like the body style...I wish they had made a retro gto like a smaller 67 goat..like ford did with their mustangs that look like the older ones...even dodge retro cudas...

  • I Want A GTO So Bad

  • my v-tec would take that any day

  • thats the spirit ..

  • NEED ONE!!!!

  • had one

  • had one!!!

  • No matter how you look at it, this cars is nothing more then a Holden with a Small Block Chevy.

    No non GM, non American import is a Pontiac!

  • @ramairgto72 I agree. these things are Aussie Pieces of crap

  • @Bottomf I never said they were crap, I said they are not American or PMD, they are ugly tho! FA-UgLy!

  • @ramairgto72

    I didnt say u hated the car I just said its easy to not like the car with an original GTO. I'm sure if they made a retro version for it u would like it more than the 04 to 06 version right? IDK if its sacreligious but i kinda consider the new GTO as its own car an not an ode to the priginal. Mustang has changed body styles and not all look like a 1965 mustang. Old school Charger fans hate the new Charger and someone out there with an original must feel the same as u towards GTOs

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO This car is not PMD, GM or American even the SBC is built in Canada! Really think about this, why is it and or should be called a Pontiac GTO? What makes this car a Pontiac GTO? If Ford made the next Mustang from a Mazda would you still argue with me about that? A Geo Metro is titled & called a Chevy, however it's a Suzuki, would you argue it's a Chevy? You cant choose what car is "factual" based on looks or opinion or even emulation of another car it's named after.

  • @ramairgto72

    Well these days cars arent manufactured all in the US. Parts get outsourced all the time. I can't make a point to you I guess pontiac should have just quit making cars once the muscle car era was over bc people like you think if its not completely made out of american steel then its a fucking import. New GTO owners have to deal with people saying "this car was the Holden Commodore first!" all the time. WE KNOW. and people like you just have to take shit so personal.

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO It's stolen valor! And as far as "putting up with being called a Holden" it seems the majority have no porb with it, at least on G.O.N.E. LS1GTO LS2GTO as I belong to all the Holden GTO forums and can tell you that.

    Even Holden didnt want this car being called "Pontiac GTO", Car & Driver reported that the Holden team hated the idea, thus the missing "Pontiac" nomenclature on the car until the last model runs. I just call it as I see it, no excuses!

  • @ramairgto72

    So what are you saying us GTO owners should do? debadge it? rebadge it to keep ya'll happy? crush it? never call it american muscle? switch to mustangs because its completely made in the US? What do YOU want us to do to keep YOU happy? OK I'll promise with scout's honor: I shall not ever again call my "vehicle" a GTO or Pontiac. Should we stop calling the Geo Metro a Chevy, go to every Geo video and let the people know? People are quick to call new GTOs a POS but have no solutions

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO I'm not asking anything, enjoy the car, it's world class! My comments are for debate's sake. Only Owners and would be Owners need live with the aspects and or events that include owning this car. O_o!

  • @ramairgto72

    I can't even own the car bc people like you hate on them. your stuck in the muscle car era bc of your 72 and now you sit back and hate. I get it. Why do you even waste your time with the LS1 and LS2 forums? you dont own an LS1, LS2, or as you would say a Holden Commodore so why are you commenting on there? let me guess your telling all the members that its not PMD and should burn in hell? what ever happened to love a car bc its a car, instead we hear ITS UGLY AND A FUCKING POS !

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO PT3: It is ugly, this car never got good reviews about its looks! You can't argue that... You also might like to know that I'm not about numbers correct cars, my own PMDs are not number matching originals, but they are PMD & PMD powered or have PMD designed equipment. They are also not rebaged or imports and they are GM, unlike your Holden.

    I'm know why your all upset, as now your beloved car now has an ugly truth that will now eat at you, sorry but truth can hurt! >8o

  • @ramairgto72

    But before the LS1 the Holden version had a 5.7 only producing 300 h.p. at the engine. then Holden put in the LS2 in their version of the GTO and G8. So for the the Aussies the car was more GM then Holden? I agree i wish they did a more retro version, but thats what i love about my GTO. It blends in and stands out at the same time. Its easy to hate on a newer goat when you've got a 1972 Ram Air GTO in your driveway. I'd like a 69 GTO to sit next to mine.

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO I don't hate the car, dont assume. The reality of this car is that it's another nations & another car makers "hot rod" that GM seen fit to rebadge into something it is not. Brand loyal & Team Loyalty have been begot for "fast". No Chevy engine in a import is a PMD GTO, nor will it ever be, or modern Camaro barfed fake T/As. Fast is not the hallmark to make a GTO, you just can't rebadge or label something they are not for money! Why should a non PMD car be a PMD car?!

  • @ramairgto72

    Like i said i wish it was more of a retro version and not a rebadged but I didnt want to buy a GT mustang bc i see thousands and all it takes is a v6 to have swapped bumpers and dualed exhaust and it could LOOK like a GT or Cobra, so i didnt want that, I couldn't afford a Charger or a new Challenger, and Chevy stopped making the SS in 03 and the only other thing in 05 with a 400 hp LS2 was the Corvette. If they had an 05 LS2 Camaro trust me my screename would have been different.

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO Even if this car was more "retro" it's still not American, GM or PMD, so it would still be a "tribute" car at best. This would be like having your Fav sports team dissolved & another team slipping into their uniforms & playing as them.

    wx3(dot)pontiacheaven(dot)org/­about%20pontiac%20heaven(dot)h­tm Pontiac & Chevy have always been competitors, putting a Chevy engine in place of a PMD engine is on every level wrong even more that it's a import, time time to read the link.

  • @ramairgto72

    So your saying even if Pontiac would have made the GTO its own car and made it a retro version of the GTO it would only be a tribute car at best to you? I guess we should start calling the mustang the Fiat Mustang right? its politically correct to you. Also yeah the Oilers moved to Tennesse so yeah I have dealt with my favorite team slipping on another teams uniform and played as them. but does anyone call them the Tennesse Oilers? NO its the Titans and nobody is bitching.

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO PT1: It would be easy to label me a "hater" of the car, or invent a enclosure to put me in then label me. However what you can't find and will not find is me calling the Holden GTO a Shitty car or me posting that I hate the car! That is what people like yourself hate most of all, cuz all i'm doing is pointing out "TrUtH", no lies and or bigotry toward Holden or the "V", so all your left with is making up a "fault" then building on it! >8P

  • @ramairgto72

    WOW one look at your channel has proved my theory. People commented how youve been making it your job to go on youtube (which you admitted to do everyday) and tell people about 04-06 GTOs. Your videos were made to hate on GTOs but your telling me not to assume that you hate the car? I never thought i would say this is someone who was in the Army but get a fucking life. You HATE new GTOs and Trans Ams bc they were made by chevy. Let it go. Go outside. SOMETHING!

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO PT4: A fake Rolex is not a Rolex. A Chevy SB in a Import is not a PMD Pontiac GTO. And that will be true no matter who or what I am or labeled as >:)

  • @ramairgto72

    Will this car ever meet your standards of a proper Pontiac? If NO then shut the fuck up. Your wasting your time. Is ramairgto72 going to make every new era GTO owner send it to the crusher? If NO shut the fuck up. You just hate hate hate hate. Do you even look at Previous gen GTOs videos or do you spend all day lecturing about GTOs and where they were made?

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO PT2: And what dose my occupation have to do with anything here? O_o? What is your concern to what I do on the net? This is my hobby, I like doing this, and while I do it I "enlighten" people. Why should you be so upset that I would expose the Holden GTO as a import? Why can't you have the courage to post that you don't really want other people to know that your car is a fake? >8)

  • @ramairgto72

    Your occupation comes into play bc i know plenty of people in the Army and are retired from the Army that dont spend every hour arguing cars on the internet. You said it is ugly, imported, and obviously pisses you off to the point that you spend all day arguing about them for obviously years not. Im guessing since 03 when they were announced youve been bitching? am i wrong? Plenty of people swap their Pontiacs out for a LS1, LS2 or 454 or 502, is the car instantly not a Pontiac?

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO So what your saying is that because of my Military Status I should not go onto the internet & post anything about GM suits suckering people into a fake GTO? Wow you got to be a Democrat! Why should it piss me off? I DONT OWN IT! LOL! If I was oblivious enough to buy something thats an obvious fake then I would be pissed! Yesterday I port matched a SBC intake, should I kill myself now? ROTFLMAO!!

  • @ramairgto72

    @ramairgto72

    Actually I love every part of my GTO, the design, engine, and overall sleath look. I wanted an 05 corvette so I got a corvette with a backseat at $10k cheaper. not so stupid as you love to point out. Do whatever you want on the internet, be as annoying as you want theres a thousand more dickeheads on here that have supreme knowledge about GTOs and Holden Commodores

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO By all means drive your car, I dont care, enjoy it! But don't bitch about the sand in your pussy when someone points out that your car is a corporate farce constructed to dupe people into thinking they have a genuine PMD GTO all in the name on greed!

    Don't insult the truth as your insulting yourself!

    ( @ Y @ ) Bitch Tits! LOL!

  • @ramairgto72

    yeah I will drive my car proudly. Its still a 400 h.p. car, with an LS2, and I love it. Im not mad or ranting im commenting in bulk so i can walk away from the computer for 2 seconds. which you obviously can't do

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO I have been ordering abrasive laps from Summit Racing as I REPLY to YOUR coward insult rants.. I used up all my other laps port matching and beam blending rods, and I bought extra cuz I have a set of RAM AIR III #13 heads I want to clean up, and after X mas I'm going to buy 8 new injectors for one of my PMD engines! And yes my PCM is newer then yours LOL!

  • @ramairgto72

    Honestly I dont care about your car nether the less you. so fuck off talking with you has gone no where you'll still troll videos i got you all figured out.

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO "Yawn".....

  • @ramairgto72

    No its just the Army people I know are actually doing something with their lives instead of being Cockhead of the Year on Youtube. Your like 4 years running right? If you dont like the car why are you spending so much time on it? making videos to talk shit. I'm sure nobody cares what you think. BTW no fan of either party. The Government is a group a crooks and old farts

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO Boy your pissed, lol! A weak mind used weak insults, and as such your not disproving anything your just on an adolescent rant.. I was hopeful I didnt find an ignorant jackass who's only rebuttal is off subject insults, but I did..

  • also you have no idea what people plan to do with their car. maybe i want to buy a 69 and swap the 69 GTO motor and my LS2? If i want to do that is either one not a Pontiac or GTO? Who made you ruler of all Pontiacs Mister 72 GTO? and you can make emoticons all day but it doesnt change the fact that in 10 years you'll still be making them on youtube.

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO If you would like to post about that without name calling I will be more then happy to do so! GM has/had Divisions, they would get clay modelers & artists to render their idea of what they car should LOOK like based on a "body" (i.e. A Body ), this "body" & Frame are built by FISHER then powered by the Division. The only real Division item is the engine! If you take a PMD engine out & Chevy in you get a Pontiac designed skinned Chevy! It's that easy! >:D

  • @ramairgto72

    You name called the GTO since it came out dont get butt hurt. You already said if they made the GTO suitable to your needs it would only be a tribute car at best. nothing will satisfy you. so what should i call you? A HATER. So since they didnt make it to how you wanted bc you didnt get a job at Pontiac in the 1970's when they stopped all PMD pontiacs it is now your fault for this GTO. Thanks you gave America a fake GTO

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO I posted nothing of the sort, I said AT BEST it's a tribute car! I offered NO personal "Needs". What is required to be an American car & to be PMD is not for my opinion or needs its just facts! Anything imported to the United States is a ImPoRt, since every part of your Holden is a Import that makes it a Import.. Hello? Not only that YOUR car was not built by GM, & Holden is not owned my GM! Why would this just be "My" interpretation? Answer this between your rants O_o!

  • @ramairgto72

    Technically it is GMH, General Motors Holden, which is owned by General Motors in America. Answer this Oh Master Pontiac Youtube King!

    I dont care if you call it an import. I dont call It american muscle I call it a Pontiac GTO if i was in Australia i would call it different. Just as nobody calls a Geo Metro a Suzuki. Although you probably do.

  • @2005ImpulseBlueGTO Holden has it's own stock exchange name & symbol, as such it is not "owned" by GM! At GMs webpage Holden is listed as a subsidiary, look the word up high speed! I call it a Holden GTO, as GTO is not the sole ownership of Pontiac. I really don't care how or what you think of the car, no matter what it's a import and not a Pontiac GTO, its a Monaro really its a Commodore less 2 doors, & it was that years before it was rebaged and exported! <8P

  • @ramairgto72 lol arent you sick of telling american that the gto is not american i know i am

  • @nickster1318 I have no issues, I enjoy painting people's ignorance. All over the web and realty. Its shocking to see so many people be fools about this car, the people who know the truth insult you, the majority of the people that you inform about it insult you, some just don't care, some are in complete denial others claim its lies, my favorite is wanting a drag race as if a drag race will change reality. I have even been talked about at GONE meets and other fake GTO gatherings. I love it!

  • @ramairgto72 so true....oh well i guess they will never learn

  • what exhaust mods?

  • This is for Koushiro. The GTO is definitly not well known for its look. I am the biggest GTO fan there is but the truth is the exterior is plain and almost everyone would agree with me. What makes the fucking car is the AMERICAN ENGINE.

  • nissan 370z or this new GTO

  • @streetrunnazclik The nissan but If you want LS series power get a camaro, They don't look like grand am.

  • @Thegr8penetrator yea i went ahead and got a nissan 370z. its red and sweet and it hauls.. i ran it already also and i run 13's 13.7 my first run but i had a late reaction.. im only 19 and shit i got yrs to know how to race at the track.

  • @streetrunnazclik cool man they got looks, run and are capable.

  • @streetrunnazclik not tryin to bust anybody's baloon here but bud unless you rolled the light your reaction time makes no difference in how fast the car runs!!! the car wont run any faster even if your cut a perfect light!!! by the way im a 21 yr old racin for almost six yrs.and mine runs 9.30s @ 142 mph, my R.T. is anywhere from at worst .020 all the way to fairly consistent .005s .006s. grn means go but the timers dont start untill your front tire breaks the beam.

  • Australian Import.

    There I said it. Fuck everybody else who denies this. You're embarrassing me and other Americans who do know shit about cars.

  • @KoushiroIzumi85 but its got an american motor in it. aussie just make a good 4 door saloon, not ones that just turn left in circles.

  • @iluffkfco4orsome That's like saying that the Japanese assembled Toyota Land Cruiser is American because it has a V8 engine (made from an Alabama plant) in it.

    Just because it has an American engine doesn't mean it makes the car American.

  • @KoushiroIzumi85 yeah but its gm's car, they put billions into developing them. its not like they're bringing in evo's and slapping a gto badge on them.

  • @iluffkfco4orsome It's GM Holden's car you mean. If it was American by the fact that it's parent company is General Motors then you would have to consider the Korean made Daewoo Kalos (which is sold here as the Chevy Aveo/and recently discontinued Pontiac G3) "American" as well.

  • @KoushiroIzumi85 nah not really they say gm is a parent just so stupid aussies dont get upset. but it is gm's car, they pay for it... they can call it american if they want.

  • @iluffkfco4orsome Well fact is fact. The real fact is that the last gen GTO is an Aussie muscle car with an American engine.

  • @KoushiroIzumi85 i never said it wasnt fucking homo sexual.

  • @iluffkfco4orsome You made it sound like as if it wasn't you fucking cunt.

  • @KoushiroIzumi85 dude chill its pretty obvious ur an aussie and i was busting ur balls coz u make out ur an american and u post the same thing every where. nationalist douche bag sucking piece of fucking trash ass wipe cunt.

  • @iluffkfco4orsome No I'm not an Aussie. I'm just saying the facts because you make us Americans look retarded when it comes to cars. At least I have some brains not some ghetto mother fucker like you who seem to act like you were fucked up at birth because your crack whore ass mom did heroin and stabbed you with clothes hanger when you were still in the womb.

  • @KoushiroIzumi85 dont lie you fucking stupid aussie lol you got busted LMFAO,.

  • I bought an 05 impulse blue goat, i bought it 4 months ago, my erection still hasnt gone down.....

  • which flowmaster is on this gto?

  • O Ok. Which one though? Thats the best exhaust I've heard from this car.

  • WHat exhaust do you have on that goat man? Sounds sickkkkk

  • Comment removed

  • That dealer would shit a brick if they found out you were doing burnouts in their courtesy car xD nice vid tho haha

  • nice aussie car you got there. looks better with holden badges on it though.

  • This car is sick. My buddy has a 6.0 and one day we were crusin and i asked him to open her up...he punched it and that motherfucker took off like a rocket!

  • That just means there was condensation in the pipes. Doesn't mean the motor wasn't at operating temp. On humid mornings my car spits water out till I punch it to get it out of the exhaust, even if the motor is warm. My exhaust never gets hot enough past the headers to burn off all the moisture. You can touch my mufflers with the car running.

  • siiiiiick

  • gm power

  • Holden is where American car stayed while we when to fwd v6s and 4s..they stay with big rwd v8s. That how I look at the G8 and GTO..American car being build else where until we were ready again..Pontiac is dead so we must have not been ready.

  • Um. how do you know the motor was cold?

  • @prophetofcalvin cuz water came out the tailpipes.

  • only retards do burnouts when their motor is cold

  • sounds like hit goes like shit. hang on it is a peice of shitta.

  • @P2DAPIPE wow your a bumbass why would you say that when you probably cant afford this thing new and you probably drive a peice of shit toyota

  • @amusicthang ok so explain why is it that holden has more and more japanese technology in it please??? thankyou question answered..

  • @P2DAPIPE even if it was japanese made um wait i wonder what kinda phone you have and what kind of computer you have i wonder where it was all made

  • Love this video. Seen it dozens of times, still cool.

  • awesome perfect car just awesome

  • @P2DAPIPE vtec, isn't that what they use in lawnmowers freaking idiot

  • some lawnmowers have honda motors, they dont have vtec tho.

  • O O i need new draws

  • My dream car. They have SO MUCH BALLS

  • I want one!!!

  • mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm i LOVE number plates.

  • come tell me that to my face punk 537hesburg st manteno il bet your faggot ass wont come!

  • thats a real burnout right there

  • look it dont matter what badge ison th car it matters if its good or not

  • i own a 5.7 GTO bought it for 19,000 in feb 07"

  • I dont give a fuck what u bought bitch!!

  • What kind of exhaust was that? Sounded nice.

  • stock exhaust

  • The 04-06 is just a Holden Monaro with new bumpers. It is 100% Aussie Design, only the Engine/Trans would be USA. Holden is the Aussie division of GM.

    The 2006 GTO was sold for around 30k and is almost as fast as a 2007 GT500 Mustang. It is the fastest car you could get for 30k by lightyears.

  • Would people please stop posting about how the 04-06's are built in australia ect ect ect WE KNOW!!! Alot of people who watch these gto videos own gto's such as myself and we know where our cars came from! Holy crap ive had it with these you tube encyclopedia's! lol

  • amen to that, i just picked up on 05 GTO in june for 19000....with 25K on the od.....now thats a great performance deal...one of the fastest cars on the road...and i didnt even break 20K

  • @mikerider123 so your saying holden is americans who took a trip to australia and started building cars there? so technically it is american engineered... and who cares if an american company in australia designed the classic muscle car??

  • lol. look at the rubber get thrown back like sand!!!!!

  • Schhhhhhwwiiing!!

  • I have a 06 goat and although mine is torch red.. that is a mirror of me leaveing work with it every day.. flowmaster sounds ok. too mustangish for me.. i went with kooks and spintech myself.. but cool burn dude

  • The color is actually called Torrid Red (the bright non-metallic red), 2006 also came in Spice Red which is a maroonish metallic red.

  • sick car did u no aussies made that car and we call them holdens over here

    ps look up holden burnouts they r SICK

  • that's why they didn't sell here in the US as much! because it was too euro and not fast enough. but i love the lock and for me it's fast enough haha

  • Yes, we all know that. Its been said MANY times on just about every GTO video. People are always proud to announce this like we didn't hear it enough...

  • The window sticker should be a dead give away for the brainless.. mine said

    final assembly- Elizabeth, AUS

  • was it designed by aussies? i wanna know it is after all a pontiac, an pontiac is a american brand so technicly its a american car right ( i mean no disrespect, im just curious cuz im a PONTIAC driver an damn proud to be one)

  • mate it is buit in australia not 2 sure if it was designed in australia. If you want 2 know want it is buit from just. Google

    HOLDEN MONRO

  • i think it was designed by us pontiac but built in australia..lol i dont know you google it mate.

  • i know more now!! the GTO was designed by holden( aussies) but later merged with GM, GM build them till 06 so im saying its about half and half, without GM the GTO would not exist, the aussie version anyway.

  • Actually the motor is American, but it was designed in Australia. I wouldn't say its half half, as Australian ford also have a similar design for their straight six cars, so it's completely an Australian car. Its like saying a Supra is part American because it sold alot in the US, when really its a Japanese car that was exported, its the same with the GTO, its just another import.

  • no, it's like taking a supra, renaming it a chevy ______, putting one of the best v8's available aka ls1 in it with a t56 corvette tranny, then rebadging it. even so holden is an extension of GM in australia, practically the same company. calling the GTO an import is just ignorant...

  • You wouldn't have it in the US though unless Holden in Australia decided to export it.

  • Holden didnt decide to export them. GM said, "bitch, give us your car design because we own you" and they said ok. then the design was then built here in the U.S. only under the GTO name. not technically import material.

  • Not quite, if Holden decided they didn't want to export, GM would be up shit creek without a paddle. The market is profitable enough here that the only thing Holden has to do with GM is "You're affiliated with us" and thats it. There was a huge news story over here when holden decided to export, I remember it.

  • @jpap967 Fuck you are stupid they were built in RHD and LHD in Adelaide South Australia then exported to the States. Fucking retard.

  • @jpap967 Wrong. They were designed, built, and exported from Elizabeth, South Australia. The engine was brought to Australia, and installed in an Australian factory. Pontiac's only input was tweaking the exhaust, the bumpers, and a few bits of trim

  • They were built in Australia and brought over here.

  • yes u r 100 percent correct.finally someone who knows about cars.

  • hahahahahah so am i Pntiac Driver all the way!!!

  • def sounds mustangish

  • i was gonna say the same thing it sounds just like my buddies mustang GT with exhaust
