1966 Pontiac GTO Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 1966 Pontiac GTO have strong feelings of love and nostalgia for this classic muscle car. They appreciate its powerful performance, iconic styling, and the joy it brings when driving. Many mention its low speed economy and high horsepower, while some highlight the need for upgrades, like disc brakes. Common gripes include its difficult handling and the effort required to drive and maintain this classic work of art."
Driving is a Blast! And all the comments from jealous onlookers! Drives great on freeway! Feel the head-snapping power when the secondary carbs kick in! Looks great at car shows and in the lot at drive ins. Just can't get enough!!
September 3, 2012Love the power, handles good for American made muscle car. Turns heads and demands respect.Came with adjustable suspension which was very rare for the time. Pre emission which was all power to the wheels without power stearing or brakes. Would be awsome with todays available add ons and radial tires, etc.
January 22, 2010I like everthing about this car; interior room and trunk space allow family and friends a fun day out; cooler, chairs, blankets and all. The styling of a 66 GTO is iconic; it also has a comfortable smooth ride with great performance. Having a convertible makes all the more fun and attracts lots of attention from people who really love classic cars. This car is a solid #2 with an excellent paint job, interior, engine compartment and trunk.

September 3, 2012The original muscle car with a laughable factory HP rating of 360HP.
June 25, 20084-6 mpg...top speed 135 on the speedometer....I've had it at 139. (those of you from Sylacauga, remember the on ramp to 280 N at 231? Started to climb the on ramp...hit 120 mph just after getting on the 4 lane. 4 lane incomplete to Auburn at that time) Appearance was classic, Purchased for $2,000 sold for $2,800. Fun to drive? No way to describe. 389 high performance 3 duce carb, positive traction, canary yellow..wide oval red lined tires.
December 28, 2009I am honored and humbled to even have this car in my possession. Lost it in a bitter divorce 15 years ago, and reaquired it through an act of God. Literally. See above for standard spec type details. If you're are interested in the divine intervention, write me for the details....too long to list in this format.... This car is rock solid. I have picture history, and documentation back to 1976 through several owners. Three that I have personally met. This car is very fast and powerful. Former engine could actually pull the front end off the ground. This original one is a bit tamer, although no slouch. Could use disc brakes, more suspension work. Doors, glass, trim, interior is in excellent original condition. Outside has war scratches, but this is a driver. It is driven, and driven hard at times. The fun and enjoyment of this car is second to none. To me, it is one of the greatest automotive designs, if not (I am biased!) the greatest auto designs ever made. John Delorean and Jim Wangers had their hands in bringing this to life!!! Coolness factor is 100%. Kids 8-80 absolutely love it!!! You have to get used to starting, driving and stopping this machine...it has it's own way of doing things, and you adapt to it. I'm not kidding. It does not want to go slow!!!! I love the smell of it, the feel of it, and just sitting in it....it's a piece of automotive history, and as previously stated, it is a priveledge to own.
January 30, 2009This 4-speed Marina Turquoise convertible was a great muscle car, big V8...
March 29, 2008Great looking car. I bet it will be fin to drive. Can't wait to get it running. Well I will have to because of that ticket from the City of Los Angeles giving me 2 weeks. When you sit in the car there is something about it. Like it is meant to be enjoyed while driving.
