More factory power, thus power with a warranty!

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Pontiac GTO?
This bad boy flies. I am an old dog 55 but I love to drive this animal. I have headers and the power package 485 Horses.......
Comfortable Seats for a big man is great...................
Like the look of the hood scoops and the dual exhaust - Power.............
I guess this one is as good as it gets for the price......................

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Pontiac GTO?
Negative - I would have liked it to come with Moon roof.
Chrome Rims would have been a good idea.
Bigger Tires would have made sense.

2006 Pontiac GTO Review:
Overall a Great Car at a fantastic Price.
My opinion is this will be worth a lot of cash in the future
I have 8,500 Miles on my Brazen Orange 2006 GTO - of the 12,600 made only 3 per cent were Brazen Orange -- can I say Collector.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Pontiac GTO?
I like everything about this car. It is the only car that I didn't hate after driving it for a year. It's fast, handles well, and is not loud looking. I'm old and would feel uncomfortable in a vet or camaro etc. It rides like a bigger car and takes pot holes and bumps well.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Pontiac GTO?
Trunk is a little small but I don't care.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Pontiac GTO?
The performance, ride, style, and the fact that the car has been out of production for 3 yrs and people still ask what kind of car it is. This car is superior to any corvette. I traded my C-5 convertible Vet in for my 06 GTO and NEVER had a doubt!

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Pontiac GTO?
Small trunk.

2006 Pontiac GTO Review:
Great performance, great ride, turns heads, I like the 'sleeper' style. 6spd is a blast to drive!

Small trunk, and clunky ignition switch.

2006 Pontiac GTO Review:
In the past, I have owned a 64 gto,65 gto conv, 4 66 gto's [2 of which i still have], 74 455 sd t/a, 79 400 4spd t/a, 2 82 z/28's, 2 84 t/a's, 85 t/a, 90 t/a gta 350 ht, 91 t/a gta 350 [both of which i still have], 2004 gto a4, and finally my 2006 a4 gto [still have the 04 also].

Having said all that I'v enjoyed the 06 the most for all its power, handling, and comfort. It can't be beat!

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Pontiac GTO?
I love the feel of the car when I hit the gas. It presses you back in the seat through all the rpm range.

I've got a programmer and took the mufflers off and added long 4 inch tips. Sounds awesome. It doesn't sound like the family car some people have mentioned it to be. Very underrated!

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Pontiac GTO?
Nothing other than a little more room for the rear tires. I have 275/40/17 and it looks great.

A little faster moving seats would be nice for putting the kids in the back, but that's just a matter of patience!

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Pontiac GTO?
I love this car so much it gives me goose bumps.
Love the exterior, the interior.
Can't say enough.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Pontiac GTO?
Easier access to the back seat. That's it.

2006 Pontiac GTO Review:
Plan on buying another one because they are going to be worth a butload.
