Pontiac GTO Ram Air 6 Concept is So HOT!!

I saw this in my new Road and Track today. I found a couple more pics on the intenet. This car is awesome. This is the GTO they should have brought from Holden Australia. This car was built by GM, so we have a chance. Don't forget the new 2005 GTO has 400 hp just like the new C6 Vette. They are serious abou this car!




"The 2004 Pontiac GTO Ram Air 6 is reminiscent of the production Pontiac GTO Judge of the 60’s and 70s. This vehicle is a modern interpretation of the classic, from its rollback orange exterior color to its authentic and functional ram air hood. The 389 cubic-inch V8 powerplant, matched with 6-speed manual transmission, supplies 575 horses to the 335/30/R20 inch rear tires. The front wheels are fitted with 285/30/20 high performance tires."

another pic....

I will say this. If this new styling breaks into production and is making 400+ horsepower, I think I would give up my beloved Evo!

Check out that wide body and that CF splitter and CF skirt extensions... chills!!!

well the one now with 350 hp does the 1/4 in 13.5-13.7. But the 2005 has the new vette engine and has the same 400 hp. Should be good for low 13's maybe even high 12's stock but with drag radials!!! This concept has 575 hp, but it just a concept. This is no cavalier, thir car comes from Holden with is owned by GM and is a manufacturer in Austraila

LOL! I don't care what anyone says or thinks this car is badass!!!! I have to agree thought the exhaust looks funny. I think they should do a dual center exhaust like the corvette!

I agree with you v8Killer, I like it myself, I just love the anti-V8 sentiment on here. Ask EVO owners and there is nothing else on the road worth but EVO's. LOL They sound like M3 drivers.
