I own 1 of each today.

Old Goat Racer you make a great point in your post!


I also have owned 3 65s (My all time favorite also)
2 67s
a 68 and a 69
a 70 and a 73 (previously thought to be the worst looking GTO in existence)
and now own a 2005

The generations 64-67, 68-72, 73, and 74 don't look like the other generations and the 2004-2006 is another generation, the car changed and evolved and they don't all look alike, natural progression, not hard to understand unless you really don't want to. Never once has Pontiac resorted to making a new model look like an older model so why is it that can't be comprehended?

Little secret here, the 2004 Grand Prix doesn't look like a 62 Grand Prix either, the 2004 Bonneville doesn't look like a 57 Bonneville, the 2004 Grand Am doesn't look like a 73, OMG!!!!

I guess if you wanted a "retro GTO" that white thing is what you pining for then, yep it's a beauty. Pontiac really missed the boat not making those things.........................

I think I'll take my 2005 GTO just the way it is. I like it fine as do other people that have paid me many complements on it.

The haters, I don't care if you like it or not.
