WOW!! This argument has been going on for a year? Its just a car, a nice one in fact, I own one. A GTO to some and to some its not, its nothing to get your panties in a bunch. I found many people who did not like it at first, like it now, once they saw the car up close and personal. They situation remided me of the Dodge Charger when it was reintroduced people bitched that it was a 4 door,
Who gives a hoot who makes the car or not? It's a well-built rwd muscle car in a sedan package. I wanted to give props to Shiftscene, that was the best fimmaking I've seen in a long time. That's art, originality, refreshing to see amongst the mass of people on this site setting a camera on the ground behind their car and racing the engine for 45 seconds. Thank you Shiftscene, keep it up.
Everyone talks as if what they say is 100% right, but when you ask them to "proof up" that quite posting of start calling people names. I proofed up and I'm right with proof! It's good being me >:)
As a 05 goat owner all i have to complain about is that the maintnance is fairly expensive for this car. My son owns those little heeles the shoes with the wheels in them...i was trying to get the wheel out but i couldn't...so i used my gto key...it snapped in 2, to get a new key i had to call the dealership and get one shipped...in totall i spent over $450 JUST FOR A KEY! But when that throttle opens up %100 i have absolutely no complaints. (P.S i bought the car with 0 miles from the dealer)
The most common way that controll of a subsidiary is achieved is through the ownership of shares in the subsidiary by the parent...I think it is you that should look up the word.......
Seriously epluribusunom, I've had my 2005 GTO for over a year. I took the wing off and avoided any graphics that would make it a target for the cops. I take her out for a jog up to 135-140 mph every weekend and I've never seen the lights in my reaview mirror. Knock on wood. The styling is bland, but there is something to be said about remaining understated.
yea for sure man. you wanna keep the cops out of your rear view lol..and DEFFINETLY dont wanna attract any attention. out here in Syracuse New York, man, you got a nice car and its practically illegal.
I like the GTO don't get me wrong, but is it just me or do they look like shit? I mean tons of HP, they sound mean as hell, but the styling just sucks bawls to me. Anyone agree?
ARe you still ranting about how your jelious of the new gen GTO, the real GTO this and that and bla bla bla shut up, nobody wants to be "educated" by your stupid ass. Go take your smogg infested 72 and ram it into a train or brick wall. Holden is GM idiotyYour 72 is dog shit ugly. Your a wanna be, if you want a
GTO go get a 64-70, after that they were so ugly, or go get a 04-06 if you wana go fast. cuz my 06 would rape the shit out of your smogger
A subsidiary, in business matters, is an entity that is controlled by a separate entity. The controlled entity is called a company, corporation, or limited liability company and in some cases can be a government or state-owned enterprise, and the controlling entity is called its parent .
Holden is Majority Stocked "CoNtRoLLeD" car Co. Even if GM owned Holden "its still not a PMD GTO"!
This would be like GM rebaging a vette changing it to Aussie DOT then importing it & calling it a Monaro!
Modern cars have all that to be clean you tool your car will pass more smog at idel than a modern goat at redline and you call it fat but probably weighs about the same or less than your 72 and has way more potential
@ramairgto72 Where did I say I was kidding? Why are you so stuck on smog shit. If it so bad then its sad that the modern goat still wins with its mountains of crap...... both have an aftermarket difference the modern gtos market is still growing ....... not leveling off
LOL do you have Hemi LS heads I have them!? I have several aftermarket blocks, alum, CNC'ed billet aluminum, high quality Iron casts, as cast 400cfm heads every part of my engine is reproduced, and the kicker is it's been out of production since 1978 that's over 32 years!
And i'm not stuck on smog I'm just pointing out that it's something YOUR hindered with, i'm not!
I have more available parts for PMD engine then you have for Chevy LS,
@ramairgto72 you dont know when to quit do you you bash and bash but dont know anything. the curb weight for your 72 is 3,450 pounds which is only 300 pounds lighter then an 04 GTO so your already wrong again. Modern GTOs have cats thats it, explain how that makes it the smogger? show me a 72 GTO that can run low 13s in the quarter and 170 MPH and still get 27 MPG that is potential dumbass
Asshole I'm not bashing the car, it's a world class car & a real performer, your an assuming Low IQ jackass!
I dont know where you get your numbers from but I get 2004 @ 4465lbs & 05-06 is 4491lbs from ultimategto dotcom. Even if it was just the cats & thats not all the emissions equipment it's still a huge difference then recirculated gas tank fuel fumes!
What does MPG or even Ets have to do with this at all! NoThInG I dont care if it did 5sec ETs it's not going to change with it is!
Lets take a closer look at the numbers, the fastest stock Import Fake GTO is 13 flat, fastest REAL GTO is 13.1
So in 42 years of advancement a real GTO is only .1 sec slower, & it's on 1963 14" Bias Ply Tires VS P235/40ZR18 on superior tires!
What part of this should you be proud about?
Again real GTOs have way more potential then any Import, PrOvE Me WrOnG! They even make Hemi Pontiac heads & when you get around 450hp & start chucking IRS half shafts stock 10bolt 8.5s yawn!
@ramairgto72 Stock new GTOs are capable of twelves and can take a turn at the end of the straight. And 4465 pounds? you have got to be shitting me that is so stupid its not even funny thats almost the weight of my truck. you keep calling me an ass but you keep getting proved wrong..........I think I see a pattern. Dont argue with someone about a car you dont own when they do jackass
I count recorded times weights & such by leading magazines that get their cars right off the showroom floor & run them, not what Joe Blow posts on Internet Fourms!
if you want to be sucked into the BS & beyond thats up to you!
"turn at the end" who races off ramps? FYI Holden IRS is one of the worst performers VS other IRS cars!
In any case the real GTO was built for 1/4 not the skid pad, however it now can be built to do both via aftermarket, not bound by IRS inherent issues!
@ramairgto72 the weakest link in the rear of a holden is the springs and no IRS likes drag racing but I flog mine and it comes back for more. and IRS will out handle any solid axle of the same set up anyday..... stereo typical muscle head that makes americans look bad
The Holden GTO is master of none in the 1/4 & rally, it's good at both but the IRS was a trade off, and yes from the factory off the boat it is plagued with IRS issues, as well it "wallows"!
And when you account for the the rubber drive shaft coupler it makes the Holden IRS even more weak, unless your going to argue that the rubber in the IRS makes it stronger then a GM 12bolt, or you just going to BS yourself some more?
@ramairgto72 All I have been saying is it will do all yours will do and then get better milage comfortably drive home with the A/C on. What does a heads and cam LS@ make? somewhere in the range of high 400's to low 500's. What does an off the shelf heds and cam 389 make? around the same with no other work? it just keeps going but your the typical old hot rodder who gets mad when technology changes
My PCM in one of my PMD cars is more advanced then your PCM, dont stereo type me!
Your arguing superior, i'm telling you that it given the same engine advancements it would do better! I did say that 30+ years of advancement .1 ET gain is fucking embarrassing!
5.7 PMD block alum heads roller everything & EFI it and get get great MPG, most likely better cuz real GTOs are lighter then fake ones, No Smog better TQ & if I choose I can bolt in 04 GTO buckets!
@ramairgto72 GEE mister let me guy your PCM is aftermarket? then I would hope its more advanced.....Would do better would do better would do better well gee maybe because they have more cubic inches? Lighter yes cause you have NONE of the safety BS that ALL modern cars come with. And let me guess you have classic car insurance not that hard for it to be cheap then........
So when you said earlier that the Holden GTO had more potential you were just kidding or hoping that after 7 years YOU would be the one to prove me wrong?
The 1960's-74ish A&F-bodies, have almost endless possibilities, they are not bound by mountains of DOT & EPA requirements they have a huge aftermarket and even a 1964-72 A body PMD can be built without ANY original parts even the engines!
@04YJ Yes or No! Is ANY Fake Holden Import GTO heavier then a real GTO? Is the Fake Holden Import GTO built & designed by PMD? Does the Fake Holden Import GTO have more SMOG equipment then ANY real GTO? Is a Import made outside the US then imported? Is the Fake Holden Import GTO powered by Chevy? If you bought stock in GM would that include Holden? Is 43 years of development for .1 sec gain ridiculous to brag about? Stop being a cry baby "I'm rude" & prove me wrong coward! >:P
So what your saying is that no PMD designed engine can get 27mpg do 13s & have a top speed of 170mph?
Some how only Chebby can do this?
I guess no PMD designed engine with PFI, Alum heads roller valve train, 2010 COP PCM ignition system in a lighter car with a superior TQ rod stroke, without any emissions, can do that?
Thats impossible Cuz its not Chebby !
LOL!!!
Its obvious your experience in cars is laughable, ignorant, & fueled by BS Holden forum lore!
Jackass, I'm not harping on SMOG I'm clearly stating that no real GTO has the same amount of SMOG equipment as a Fake GTO, even if it had one Cat it would still have more!
The question was not locked into a time frame, yes real PMD engines with the same tec in an LS engine can do the same & with a better TQ rod stroke they would do better, & i'm sure an LS w carb & 14" polyglass tires would be a worse performer then any Real period Stock GTO!
@ramairgto72 Yeah it has more runs cleaner smoother and the same horsepower and will idle at 600RPM with the air on. and yes it would be considering they wouldnt fit. the whole car has evolved to a all around performer not a scream in a straight line then hope it will stop by the turn off
Retooled as in "new cast"? Some stuff was not built at GM, Reynolds the "aluminum foil" people even made some stuff for PMD, it's a PMD design so it's PMD. It's like if you bought a SBC Dart block what is it Dart SB, no its a SBC built by Dart!
Anyone can mod an A body to do anything the fake GTO can do & do it better, you cant argue that!
Funny I dont see any Avg Joe YouTube vids of Holden GTOs carving corners, I see most if not all dragging!
It makes no sense for you to argue ETs & MPGs with real GTOs, it would only be worth bragging if you went back in time to 1964 and beat a real GTO by POINT ONE second ".1" hello!
14" poly glass VS 245/40ZR18's modern TPI COP vs "points" & carb .1 second!
Given the advantages .1 is a crime! Now figure in the same 64' 389 w/ EFI, rollerised modern 6 speed & tires, with a 389 the 346 might get more MPGs, but the loss in a race stings more then getting past while gassing at a BP!
@ramairgto72 I give up man you seriously are hilarious that it bothers you that bad that the car has a pontiac badge on it and has all these problems yet still is faster.......oh well
Why should it bother me? Really? I don't own a fake GTO, I dont have a Chevy engine with a pathetic plastic engine cover that says "GTO" ( if you put the vette cover on you could say you switched to a vette engine lol)!
Yes you can brag about the "POINT ONE" 0.1, zero point ONE second faster time after 41 years of advancement, you can totally take that to the bank!
The real 1964 GTO did it on 1963 biasply 14" tires, the fake 05 was on modern 18" radials.
Proof up, point out my "Fucked Facts". Tell me how it's not an Import, not SBC powered, not missing the written word "Pontiac" on it for the better part of the entire run ! While your at it prove it's 100% GM, prove it's not a rebaged Holden, prove the sudden mid year fAkE scoops & word "Pontiac" showing up on the car after shit sales & complaints, as well around that time GM's changed calling their LS SB Chevy to just LS!
@ramairgto72 Get the fuck out over here the GTO is a bad ass car your just mad cause you dont own one like the rest of us so all you can do is talk your shit.
@kokanunez123 Make me! Plz point out where I said the car was a POS!? The only thing I respond to is people thinking this car is American, Pontiac, PMD, GM and the like. I post truth, and some of you get very upset, why is that KoKo? Could it be that most owners dont like their car being called an import, a ausssie wrapped SBC!? Sure it is, they want it to be a real GTO, & an American GM car however it is a FaKe, it's a Holden with a SBC, it's not PMD not American not even GM. LOL >:P
@kokanunez123 By the way point ONE second faster then a real PMD GTO is a joke, its ugly & heavy imported w SBC engine rebaged by suits to make money off people who wanted a GTO. I say UgLy cuz it is! Most of the model run the word PONTIAC is no place on the car, Y cuz the Holden team was pissed it got rebaged! Nobody at PMD had anything to do with this car, it's a pozer no matter how fast or how many MPGs it gets! Why would anyone want to own a fake pozer GTO? Prove me wrong sport! O_o
@ramairgto72 oh well fake or not I dont care the GTO is a great fun, and fast car to own i dont see anything wrong with owning a GTO. So please dont be hating:)
@kokanunez123 I'm sorry could you please post where I said "I hate it"!? Or you just aSSuming I hate it? Or by posting the truth about the car you think I hate it? Why would posting truth about where and what this car is lead you to believe I hate it? Or could it be that exposing the car shows what it is and what is it is not what you want it to be!? It's a non GM import rebaged to be something it is not, what makes it worse is people attempting to hide it or punish people who talk about it!
The truth about this car is that GM owns Holden so when all is said and done it's a GM product. Holden can't do anything without the approval of GM. Everyone is so quick to point out that its an austrailian car, and yes it is made in austrailia but guess what... it's american property.
@MultiPot420 Funny how Holden is not called GM of Australia, kinda like other out of US GM makers?! Tell me how dose a non GM owned company make it GM, tell me how 1 car maker has 2 stock exchange names?! Holden has their own, so dose GM, tell me how they are the same but with 2 stock names? The aussies designed the "V" body it is not a GM car! Is a Geo Metro Chevy? It has a Chevy title! the only hitch is that it's a Suzuki! GM is a car whore that imports cars under US names! Prove me wrong!
@ramairgto72 it makes it seem like you hate on the car i mean either your mad cause you dont own a GTO so just want everyone else to know the truth about the car witch is not true...or you just dont have anything else to do on the internet..
@kokanunez123 ASSumption hardly ever pans out well! I could care less what you think I own or don't own, and I just dont care wtf you think >:)
I also find it strange that you and Multipot420 both posted at almost the same time with the same "opinion" then receiving thumbs ups! I'm sure it's just wild to think you might have 2 users names, like who dose that!? O_o Prove me wrong right here right now! It's that easy, step up, do the homework and prove me wrong, I did my homework lets see you!
Great video Scott. Keep 'em coming. I wanna see some more GTO tributes! People don't know what they're missing... I'm just glad I got my hands on an 06 while I still had a chance, lol...
Damn that is a bad ass video...like the hood for it too, my dad got a GTO...06-silver and all, was wondering if that came with it or did you order it?
WOW!! This argument has been going on for a year? Its just a car, a nice one in fact, I own one. A GTO to some and to some its not, its nothing to get your panties in a bunch. I found many people who did not like it at first, like it now, once they saw the car up close and personal. They situation remided me of the Dodge Charger when it was reintroduced people bitched that it was a 4 door,

A 72 GTO has a charcoal canister! Compared to your heavy import that has cats, Smog, EGR & a host of other stuff, your be the smogger!
Dude a 72 GTO has only a few cosmetic changes then a 70, hows your foot taste?
Even you dont believe your fake hood scooped 06 looks good!

As far as "potential" the GM A body has more to offer then your 04 import will ever have! please lets here your case on that!
GM Holden Ltd has its own stock market name, it is not GM!
Its a fine care but it's not a PMD GTO!

@ramairgto72 GEE mister let me guy your PCM is aftermarket? then I would hope its more advanced.....Would do better would do better would do better well gee maybe because they have more cubic inches? Lighter yes cause you have NONE of the safety BS that ALL modern cars come with. And let me guess you have classic car insurance not that hard for it to be cheap then........

So when you said earlier that the Holden GTO had more potential you were just kidding or hoping that after 7 years YOU would be the one to prove me wrong?
The 1960's-74ish A&F-bodies, have almost endless possibilities, they are not bound by mountains of DOT & EPA requirements they have a huge aftermarket and even a 1964-72 A body PMD can be built without ANY original parts even the engines!

YES because its a far more developed car with more shit and safety weight......
NO didnt say it was jackass
YES yes and again this is a big deal why?
YES and what isnt?
YES and what new GM isnt?
NO cause again I dont care
YES cause it does it with the same or less power and more weight

If you answered the questions right, how is that car a PMD GTO?
Juts calm yourself down and tell me how it's a American PMD GTO?
?

@04YJ
So what your saying is that no PMD designed engine can get 27mpg do 13s & have a top speed of 170mph?
Some how only Chebby can do this?
I guess no PMD designed engine with PFI, Alum heads roller valve train, 2010 COP PCM ignition system in a lighter car with a superior TQ rod stroke, without any emissions, can do that?
Thats impossible Cuz its not Chebby !
LOL!!!
Its obvious your experience in cars is laughable, ignorant, & fueled by BS Holden forum lore!
Good luck with that!
>:D
ramairgto72 1 year ago
@ramairgto72 show me one that can do it stock dumbass.
You keep harping on emissions this and that there is no performance in that so what the fuck does it matter?
Its posted fact that you in your set ways wanna fight cause its not PMD who gives a shit doesnt make it any different.
would your 72 run 13's box stock with a average joe driver I would be money not.

@04YJGTO
Jackass, I'm not harping on SMOG I'm clearly stating that no real GTO has the same amount of SMOG equipment as a Fake GTO, even if it had one Cat it would still have more!
The question was not locked into a time frame, yes real PMD engines with the same tec in an LS engine can do the same & with a better TQ rod stroke they would do better, & i'm sure an LS w carb & 14" polyglass tires would be a worse performer then any Real period Stock GTO!
Your ignorance is not an excuse!
>:P
ramairgto72 1 year ago
@ramairgto72 Yeah it has more runs cleaner smoother and the same horsepower and will idle at 600RPM with the air on. and yes it would be considering they wouldnt fit. the whole car has evolved to a all around performer not a scream in a straight line then hope it will stop by the turn off

@04YJGTO
Who says you cant build an A body turn? Plz tell me!
PMD engines with the same tec are doing the same thing, only they are real Pontiacs not Holden.
Evolved? Your talking about the Holden V right, because thats what evolved way other on the other side of the world, Holden designed it, built it.
LOL and the kicked is that 3M made adhesive stickers that some how turned it into a PMD car from a Division thats been dead since 78!
LOL!!!
>:P
ramairgto72 1 year ago
@ramairgto72 a retooled pontiac block is not a pontiac block.......
Cars have evolved its not the 60s or 70s some people enjoy turning and some as myself enjoy both.....
fun all the people who hate it havent owned one and have their head stuck in the exhaust of an original
04YJGTO 1 year ago
@04YJGTO
Retooled as in "new cast"? Some stuff was not built at GM, Reynolds the "aluminum foil" people even made some stuff for PMD, it's a PMD design so it's PMD. It's like if you bought a SBC Dart block what is it Dart SB, no its a SBC built by Dart!
Anyone can mod an A body to do anything the fake GTO can do & do it better, you cant argue that!
Funny I dont see any Avg Joe YouTube vids of Holden GTOs carving corners, I see most if not all dragging!

@04YJGTO
It makes no sense for you to argue ETs & MPGs with real GTOs, it would only be worth bragging if you went back in time to 1964 and beat a real GTO by POINT ONE second ".1" hello!
14" poly glass VS 245/40ZR18's modern TPI COP vs "points" & carb .1 second!
Given the advantages .1 is a crime! Now figure in the same 64' 389 w/ EFI, rollerised modern 6 speed & tires, with a 389 the 346 might get more MPGs, but the loss in a race stings more then getting past while gassing at a BP!

@ramairgto72 I give up man you seriously are hilarious that it bothers you that bad that the car has a pontiac badge on it and has all these problems yet still is faster.......oh well
04YJGTO 1 year ago
@04YJGTO
Why should it bother me? Really? I don't own a fake GTO, I dont have a Chevy engine with a pathetic plastic engine cover that says "GTO" ( if you put the vette cover on you could say you switched to a vette engine lol)!
Yes you can brag about the "POINT ONE" 0.1, zero point ONE second faster time after 41 years of advancement, you can totally take that to the bank!
The real 1964 GTO did it on 1963 biasply 14" tires, the fake 05 was on modern 18" radials.
You should be bothered!

@andrewmoralez
Proof up, point out my "Fucked Facts". Tell me how it's not an Import, not SBC powered, not missing the written word "Pontiac" on it for the better part of the entire run ! While your at it prove it's 100% GM, prove it's not a rebaged Holden, prove the sudden mid year fAkE scoops & word "Pontiac" showing up on the car after shit sales & complaints, as well around that time GM's changed calling their LS SB Chevy to just LS!
Prove me wrong, Google boy!

@ramairgto72 Get the fuck out over here the GTO is a bad ass car your just mad cause you dont own one like the rest of us so all you can do is talk your shit.
kokanunez123 1 year ago
@kokanunez123 Make me! Plz point out where I said the car was a POS!? The only thing I respond to is people thinking this car is American, Pontiac, PMD, GM and the like. I post truth, and some of you get very upset, why is that KoKo? Could it be that most owners dont like their car being called an import, a ausssie wrapped SBC!? Sure it is, they want it to be a real GTO, & an American GM car however it is a FaKe, it's a Holden with a SBC, it's not PMD not American not even GM. LOL >:P
ramairgto72 1 year ago
@kokanunez123 By the way point ONE second faster then a real PMD GTO is a joke, its ugly & heavy imported w SBC engine rebaged by suits to make money off people who wanted a GTO. I say UgLy cuz it is! Most of the model run the word PONTIAC is no place on the car, Y cuz the Holden team was pissed it got rebaged! Nobody at PMD had anything to do with this car, it's a pozer no matter how fast or how many MPGs it gets! Why would anyone want to own a fake pozer GTO? Prove me wrong sport! O_o
ramairgto72 1 year ago
@ramairgto72 oh well fake or not I dont care the GTO is a great fun, and fast car to own i dont see anything wrong with owning a GTO. So please dont be hating:)
kokanunez123 1 year ago
@kokanunez123 I'm sorry could you please post where I said "I hate it"!? Or you just aSSuming I hate it? Or by posting the truth about the car you think I hate it? Why would posting truth about where and what this car is lead you to believe I hate it? Or could it be that exposing the car shows what it is and what is it is not what you want it to be!? It's a non GM import rebaged to be something it is not, what makes it worse is people attempting to hide it or punish people who talk about it!
ramairgto72 1 year ago
@ramairgto72
The truth about this car is that GM owns Holden so when all is said and done it's a GM product. Holden can't do anything without the approval of GM. Everyone is so quick to point out that its an austrailian car, and yes it is made in austrailia but guess what... it's american property.

@MultiPot420 Funny how Holden is not called GM of Australia, kinda like other out of US GM makers?! Tell me how dose a non GM owned company make it GM, tell me how 1 car maker has 2 stock exchange names?! Holden has their own, so dose GM, tell me how they are the same but with 2 stock names? The aussies designed the "V" body it is not a GM car! Is a Geo Metro Chevy? It has a Chevy title! the only hitch is that it's a Suzuki! GM is a car whore that imports cars under US names! Prove me wrong!
ramairgto72 1 year ago
@ramairgto72 it makes it seem like you hate on the car i mean either your mad cause you dont own a GTO so just want everyone else to know the truth about the car witch is not true...or you just dont have anything else to do on the internet..
kokanunez123 1 year ago
@kokanunez123 ASSumption hardly ever pans out well! I could care less what you think I own or don't own, and I just dont care wtf you think >:)
I also find it strange that you and Multipot420 both posted at almost the same time with the same "opinion" then receiving thumbs ups! I'm sure it's just wild to think you might have 2 users names, like who dose that!? O_o Prove me wrong right here right now! It's that easy, step up, do the homework and prove me wrong, I did my homework lets see you!
