Factory suspension is the only way to go and don’t use polyeurethane. Too hard and will crumble after couple years.

Lots of expensive repairs. Tend to be neglected. My sister in law owns two older MBs and a Rolls. All are neglected, parked, eyesores and in need of a junk yard or a lot of attention.

I had that exact car! It was definitely a sleeper. But, I had nothing but trouble with it. The very next day after i bought it, it wouldn't go over 35 mph. Took it back to the dealership where it was determined i had a faulty accelerator sensor. Then, after my first tire rotation I noticed some exposed metal on my back tires. Upon further inspection it had nearly half inch grooves carved into the sidewalls! They said from some crushed bushings on the strut towers rubbing. There was NO way the technicians didn't notice the damage to both tires before they put them back on my car! Over the next year or so those kind of issues kept popping up, i had enough and got rid of it. In spite of all that, I still loved driving it and sometimes wish I'd never got rid of it. You just don't see them on the road anymore.

The mid-200s GTO seriously needs to get some respect from car enthusiasts. Sure its a lot of plastic and doesn't match iconic muscle cars in style. But its a powerful, well handling and affordable sports car. And I quite like the style and shape. Also, its a real Pontiac, and that brand sadly got discontinued just a few years later. So it is one of the last Pontiac models. I think it is a worthy car to bear the name GTO.

Listing off specs, build info, all the while ripping a 600 + HP car - no one but Mr Musto can pull that off so well. And the "walking in circles" joke made me laugh out loud! Mr and Mrs Reeves have done so much great work with this (and many other cars), but I'm fairly confident they'll never wrap it (iykyk). Thank you as always Hemmings and Mr Musto ~ Chuck

Genius idea whoever decided on that, and the camera person on her captured her perfectly. Huge thumbs up. Exploring today after hearing about Motortrend. Don't ya just hate big Corporations?

these cars were disappointing and very underwhelming.. i always loved the muscle car GTOs and i remember being about 24 when these came out and thinking, "them shits look like a cavalier, just with a vette motor.. just another parts bin special from GM, nothing actually bespoke about it.." and a 30,000 production run is NOT rare.. the reason you don't see them is because they didn't last and aren't worth enough to bother collecting.

Are you insane? The interiors on these cars were so far beyond anything that Pontiac was offering at the time, and from styling perspective, it was a big two-door coupe that seated 4 people. It was the perfect car for those who wanted Corvette performance in an understated package!

@drivebigmuscle8080 looks cheap and always felt just as cheap.. are you SERIOUSLY defending that interior?! dude.. everyone who has/had one either swapped it or bolted on a power adder.. do you know what platform these were on (here's a hint: not their own, like everything else on the car)

​@@kitvexed8229 the interior is amazing quality. Not even just for GM at the time, but compared to tons of vehicles at the time. Putting a power adder on it doesn't mean they were bad cars, I'd argue the opposite
