My first new car was a 1970 GTO. I was 18 and this is my favorite car ever.

My father ordered a 1970 GTO with a Ram Air IV engine and paid the deposit. Sometime later Pontiac said the Ram Air IV GTO had been discontinued for the rest of the 1970 model year, but he could get the 455 for the same price. Working with Pontiac and the dealer, my father pointed out that the Ram Air IV engine was still available in the 1970 Firebird. Pontiac agreed to assemble one last RAIV GTO for my father's order. More than likely, his RAIV GTO was the last one made. It was a stripped down, 4-speed car that he used to build a race car.

Pontiac kind of did it to itself. Except for a very few models, Pontiac never approached its success of the '60s and '70s, when it reached as high as No. 3 in total sales. It's bread and butter sedans, which once were performance animals, became posh, underpowered junk. It mutated the Trans Am into the plastic-clad Firehawk (which did have its fans) and settled for front wheel drive versions of the Grand Prix, which would have been a great rear-driver with a V8. It's Grand Am of the late '80s was a sales success, but never a performance car. It's most painful foul-up was re-badging the Holden Monaro as the GTO in '04 without adding any of the GTO's styling charisma. Sadly, it's best cars of the oughts were the G8 and Solstice, which hit all the buttons but came too late to make a difference. Pontiac was my favorite brand (my first two cars were a LeMans and a Formula 400 Firebird) and it was sad to watch its demise.

We all talk about “Day 2 cars”. This one reminds me of a “Year Two” car. About what I’d imagine (assuming all the parts existed) what would have been done once it was out of warrantee and the owner could have some more fun. Great looking car - that obviously packs a punch.

Hilarious..around 86 my dad and mom took us to drive in, I think we went see gremlins, but its funny because my dad had a green 1970 gto judge, was a great car, but the trunk latch was broken, you had open it with screw driver, or if someone was on inside they could open it, well they decided put my moms brother in there because kids were free that night, they didn't want pay for 3 adults, but in the dark at drive in, it was much harder to open up the trunk as they had rehearse in the day time, my dad actually lost the screw driver to, so he had ask bunch people, was really embarrassing lmao, even when he finally got thexscrew driver, took him probably 10 minutes to open, my uncle was panicking, practically crying, he was only like 19 but he was a little off lol, he still is a little off til this day!!

You are right, however the GTO was the first total package of performance with special trim. Many muscle/ super cars before the GTO had optional motors,trans and gears but looked like any six cylinder or small V8 car.

For anyone who does not know Pontiac got all their cubes from the inside of the engine. No Pontiac big blocks or small blocks. Pontiac had one size block V8 that they bored and stroked or destroked as needed.
