And here's that Olds today...

I know it's sick, but I still want an airport limo in my fleet too.

The 1964 Car And Driver issue with the 64 GTO and the phantom Ferrari GTO put fledgling Car And Driver magazine on the map, and they realized that creating controversial covers sold magazines. They repeated their marketing tactic with a 1965 version, pitting the Pontiac 2+2 against the Ferrari 330/GT 2+2, the latter having a V-12 engine. The Pontiac 2+2 was prepped by Royal Pontiac

The Pontiac 2+2 beat the Ferrari in the 1/4 mile, and was within 1 second of the Ferrari around a road course, which is amazing for a vehicle the size of the Pontiac 2+2. To top it off, the Pontiac 2+2 was 1/3 the price of the Ferrari. Go Pontiac!

The 0-60 time listed for the Pontiac 2+2 (3.9 seconds) was a milestone mark, and was quoted as the fastest 0-60 mph time for a production car (on street tires) for nearly 35 years.

Totally bogus. Back then a hot (and tiny) car (Griffith, Cobra, etc.) could get into the four-second range.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
