That's one of the faults of the internet, no one yourself included can hear any inflection of my voice and you incorrectly assume you do.
I only try to please myself, I really don't care what someone else thinks about what I drive, what I do, or how I act, if I did I would drive something everyone drives, like a ruststang, or a crapmaro yanno every woman wants one....LMAO Pontiac owners don't usually follow the demographics and buy what every middle age woman drives with a v6, because they're cute.
When the Carousel red GTO Judge premiered in 1969 I was 16 years old and guess what, there were plenty of people that thought it was ugly and made fun of it, do you think any of them would like to buy a new one today if they had the chance, I'm betting they would even if just for an investment.
I just thought the post by the other gentleman was very relevant to the subject, he made a really good comparison about how times change and tastes change. I've noticed on this board how many of the older members are buying the 21st gen GTOs and really aren't listening to the detractors because it's a fine car that does everything all the predecessors did plus more.
My 05 is the only new car I have ever bought and since Pontiac is gone the only one I'll ever buy. I was never lucky enough to be able to afford a GTO during the 60s or 70s so I was at a time in my life I could afford a brand new GTO and I bought mine, and 2 days after my purchase they announced that there would be no more GTOs produced, for once I had perfect timing. I could have bought something else for less money, however I agonized for days about buying the car and I have never regretted my decision.
If your really lucky maybe someone will snap that white car up and start producing it and you can be truly happy owning one, one can only hope............
. At least I proudly drive a GTO daily, except during snow, I don't drive jap crap
as a daily driver as so many of the self appointed critics on here do. Other than my trucks there is nothing in my driveway that doesn't have a red arrowhead and a Pontiac emblem on it.
I'm done, have fun.
