Are Pontiac cars any good? I'm thinking of possibly picking up one of the last gen GTOs.
Just buy a caviler it's the same thing.
>>13895344
GTOs are cool. They are basically just LHD Mondaros. Get the 6.0L if you can.
>>13895344
Fun as heck to drive. NOt particularly unreliable, but I believe they have some tranny issues.
The newest gto looks cool on paper / internet
but fuck its ugly in real life, it looks like a bigger sunfire.
I do appreciate what they did as much as I hate GM.
>>13895396
Nah dude, there literally the exact same car, just look at them.

thats a monaro cunt

was badged as a gto in australia as well bruh
Which came first the manaro or the gto
>>13895344
pontiacs are just rebadged chevys
Pontiacs no, The GTO is though because it is a Holden not a Pontiac.
They are basically glorified skid rigs, when they were designed by someone who thought looking out the side window instead of the windscreen is the proper way to go down a road.

also the lowbeam headlight connector will start to melt and burn out bulbs within a week until fixed.
tranny issues but at least that one thing was recalled
junction box failure
>>13895469
They came out in the same year.
Or are you talking about the cv8 Monaro? because that was a Holden before it was a Pontiac.

Nice VE SS
>>13895534
These things are actually pretty ugly in person desu senpai.
I much more liked the VE HSV design

>tfw no v8 4 door
>>13895542
Honestly i have to agree, cars like the HSV w427 are far more intimidating than the VF GTS
>>13895554
v8 4 doors > v10 2 doors apparently.

>>13895567
Use never even got the VZ GTS did you?
That ones gotta hurt because the VZ GTS is easily the best commodore as far as looks go.
>>13895581
that just looks like a g6 sedan
>>13895586
If you had have said Opel Omega you would have been right because it is basically a hotted up one of them.
>>13895673
Needs a bigger super charger imho

It's literally just a bodykit.
For bonus bogan points you could go ADM as fuck holden badging.
>>13895461

wrong
>>13895695
This desu it is only the quarter panels that cost a lot of money to get and they are exactly the same on the pontiac anyway..
>>13895344
no, what you really want is the chevy lumina

You are both idiots, the CV8 Monaro came out in 2002 with a 5.7 litre ls1 producing 260kw
In 2003 a HSV GTO producing 285kw was released with the same engine and a new body kit.
in 2005 a new HSV GTO was released with a 6 litre ls2 producing 297 kilowatts.
Pic related is the last model of Monaro produced which was a "VZ HSV GTO Monaro"

the front bumper doesnt line up with the front fenders on this car
>>13895745
>with a 5.7 litre ls1 producing 260kw
iirc the 260kW engine was HSV's base V8 at the time. 2002 The Holden spec V8 was making 220kW with the VT, 225kW with the VX and 235kW with the VY. The CV8 was never released with 260kW.
>>13895762
It soes, there's just a shutline along the crease that makes it look out when viewed from down low.
>>13895745
Also, one more minor nitpick;
>Pic related is the last model of Monaro produced which was a "VZ HSV GTO Monaro"
HSV never used the "Monaro" name. The equivalent HSV badged cars were simply called "HSV Coupe", be it a GTS, GTO or Coupe4.

>it soes
It does*
>>13895765
You are right and wrong, i was thinking of the VZ cv8 Monaro, they are 260 kilowatts.
>http://www.automobile-catalog.com/make/holden/monaro_3gen/monaro_vz/2005.html
>>13895762
Depends on the car i guess, the one on this GTO is straight.
>>13895818
touche. From memory the 260kW VZ was the LS2 in the series 2? I think I also remember the VY series 2 and VZ series 1 Holdens having 245kW for the final iteration of the LS1.
That's just from the back of my head.
>>13895534
I never liked fords until they were closing their doors, I then realized how much of a fool I was, god damn the FPV's were amazing
Don't buy any car, just become a bus wanker like me
