This GTO has PS and PB and a very nice bucket seat interior and console. Hood mounted tach as well. I would rate the paint at least and 8 out of 10. It is very nice with no major noticeable defects. The interior is the same . The carpet and door panels look great and the wood sport steering really looks very nice. It is wired for a nice stereo system with speakers already in the doors but there is no head unit. The rear tray has the cut outs in it for the speakers already.
All panels on the body are solid as well as the trunk and floor pan. This GTO starts quickly and runs great down the road. All the lights work. You will get plenty of looks driving this car.
Selling as-is with no warranty. Overseas bidders are welcome. Read my feedback and bid with confidence.

Here are the answers to the questions I have been getting. The engine is a 389. The chrome and stainless on the car is excellent with no pitting. The frame is nice and clean and straight. The glass looks new. The dash pad and headliner look new as well. This is not a trailer queen but a very nice car you can take to the local shows and maybe even win a few trophies with. The restoration was done about 7 years ago and cost more the $28,000. The only difference in this car and a real GTO is the trim tag. If you would like to make an offer on the car just let me know. Thanks.

I had a gentleman email me and ask if this was a real GTO? I thought I was clear in my description but this car left the factory as a Lemans. It was then built to look like a GTO Royal Bobcat edition. It is not a real GTO this is a clone. Thanks.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
Rumormill: DeLorean Motor Company considering rescuing Pontiac Solstice?
Wed, 07 Oct 2009 DeLorean Motor Company Pontiac Solstice renderings - Click above for high-res image gallery
General Motors has made a science out of sharing platforms. So when the company's Kappa platform was introduced for a new rear-drive roadster to be distributed across three different motor divisions, you'd have figured the program was pretty safe, right? Unfortunately for the workers at the Wilmington Assembly Plant which manufactured the Kappa roadsters, those three divisions were Pontiac, Saturn and Opel - three units which the General has either sold or shut down. Which is a shame, because a perfectly good rear-drive roadster platform is a heck of a thing to waste.
In one of the strangest rumors we've heard recently, however, our compatriots over at Jalopnik report that the DeLorean Motor Company (yes, that DeLorean Motor Company) is considering buying the plant and the platform from GM and putting it back into production as a new DMC.
Looking back at Oprah's free-car giveaway 10 years later
Fri, 12 Sep 2014
Oprah kicked off her 19th season in dramatic fashion by giving all 276 members of the studio audience a free car.
Molly Vielweber's Pontiac G6 appears unremarkable at first glance. It wears forest green paint, rolls on five-spoke aluminum wheels, and it has a sizeable scrape in the driver's side door, the scar of a decade's worth of hard use. You wouldn't notice it parked at a big box store or cruising on the highway. Pontiac made hundreds of thousands of G6s in the 2000s, and a lot are still on the road. It's unremarkable in every way except for the front license plate, which reads, "Oprah 6."
