Danny Hampton It is a factory '69 GTO Judge colour. As a matter of fact the first 5000 Judges made were painted Carousel Red only. Anybody who knows GTOs "Orbit Orange" is another factory colour but on a '70 GTO. Completely different. Google it.

I also agree. The 04-06 GTO is a rebadged Holden Menaro with a different front fascia. Having said that, I am a HUGE fan of the 04-05 GTO. I honestly never even knew that an 06 was released. I drove the LS1-350 HP powered 04 with a 6 speed and it was alot of fun, and the air ride with the low profile 18 inch wheels made it a phenomenal handling car. I never got to drive an 05 but the LS2 had to have made the car even better though because I honestly felt that the LS1 didn't have the low end torque that I felt that the car should've had to match the looks. If I'm going to buy a $40,000 V8 performance car that you have to rev the shit out of to spin the tires, then it better have a head that pops out of the lower dash and gives me pleasure while I drive because if not I'll be an unhappy customer. For me, you just can't beat the smell, the feel, and the passion of an old carbureted muscle car. I always feel like I contradict myself when I comment on these videos because I almost always love both cars but for me, nothing can beat the feeling that you get when you get behind the wheel of an vintage piece of iron with a big displacement fire breathing V8 under the hood and a big hog leg to throw around.

Don't care about the 06 but love the 69 Judge. Even if the 06 will out perform the 69, it'll never look as good.

Eian Wahgener I think the 06 looks badass. It has that mean aggressive BMW-esque look in the front, and it has a very strong look overall. You probably think it's ugly because you're falling victim to "familiarity breeds contempt" as the 06 has a more familiar look to today's cars, and the 69's look isn't something you see often. If you were living in the 60's and all of a sudden saw a car with the 06's look, you'd probably think it's very bizarre but highly interesting and futuristic looking due to how unfamiliar it looks. You'd certainly be bewildered by it. Seriously, this whole "it's better because it's older" fallacy is so annoying. Learn to see the appeal in all things regardless of time-period.

That's 2006 gto looks like it's been in a fender banner at some point. The nose doesn't sit straight on that car. And paint if ugly.

It's nice to see competetive guys that seem to genuinely be buddies. Makes the arguments much more interesting. The 2006 has it's roots in Australian commodores and HSVs so it doesn't quite have the lineage to muscle cars and revamped new generation of them but it is essentially what car guys here in Australia are doing so if you love it, you'd have a field day down under.

The 60s Era had the best looking cars, best classic body styles hands down. Technology has improved leaps and bounds since then but the old classic cars are still the kings on my list.

Yes, and the Oshawa Pontiac plant in canada supplied the Judge but only in carousel red . I saw one in July 69 with the hide away light , 4 spd and Hood Tach . A real Judge didn't have those trim rings on the wheels which was on the GTO , the steering wheel is a stock version and there were 2 up grade designs. The early ones didn't have JUDGE on the glove box , plus it wasn't until spring 69 that the limited colours expanded to about 13 colours. One GTO came from the Plant in blue with a white nose , the factory had trouble with that colour and called the dealer to alert the customer....the next choice was white which they had and installed.

You are correct but I still never understood the naming of that color. Its no were near looking red.

Performance wise the 2006 wins all categories hands down. That being said, to say I'm not fond of its looks is an understatement. If its a question of which car would I rather be seen driving,The judge walks away with it.

Just a quick mention, that the Judge’s orange color is called “Carousel Red.” Most GTO enthusiasts would already notice. I wanted one of those for half my life, but when it came time to by a Judge, I feel in love with the “Liberty Blue” ( code 52), which I still have today. I owned a “Cosmo Purple”, GTO until someone ran into it at a stop street, totaling other baby. 🥲 I loved them both equally !

It should have had 18" wheels. it should have had the beautiful rear re-design that was done for 2005-2006. also, there was the initial curious and sometimes bitter resentment from the old-timers, most of whom have since come full circle. also, I believe it may be true, as I have read, there were forces within GM that actually wanted it to not succeed. If so, it sold very well for those circumstances. most importantly, it does not even matter. the coolest muscle car of all time, the 1970-1974 Cudas did not sell well either, only a five year lifespan and then killed forever, they sold literally just a fraction of what Camaros and Mustangs sold, even though many (including me) believe they were superior in design (although 69-70 Mustangs were awesome, as were 1969 Camaros). less than 5000 Cudas were sold in 1974, far lower than GTO numbers. but they are gold at auction today.

The new GTO was forging its own path and in my opinion the design was all wrong. Now Pontiac is dead. Pontiac should've done what Ford and Chevy did to its mustang and Camaro. Make it look like a modern 60/70s style and we could argue that Pontiac may still be alive today if they did what it's competitors did.

I am 66 years old. The classic GTO's are the most beautiful sleek muscle cars of that 60's era. However, this wide body 06 looks very healthy and would love to drive and own it. The 06 is definitely a head turner and should be added to the stable with the classic GOATS.

I being from Australia I love the 69 GTO Judge the modern GTO is a Monaro here in Australia and the HSV devision did the GTO and love the hsv GTO , but I would take the original in a heart beat

No matter what the new gto looked like, there would be those who would not like it. It would have still been powered by an LS2 motor. It still looks better then that 73 and 74 gto. That was a disgrace to the name.

Love the look of the old style, but the wide body kit definitely makes the new, not so GTO looking GTO look good, if I could I'd throw the handling and performance of the new under the judge, and the creature comforts (made of light weight material to keep the weight down) inside, but definitely keep all the old school styling

I own a 2006 GTO with minor performance upgrades. It's a silver 6 spd. and it's my daily driver. I love the car, it handles like it's on rails thanks to a 3 inch drop with Bilstine struts and springs. For the money it's the most performance you can buy. Basically a four seat Corvette with a steel body. I couldn't be happier with the car, and there is no doubt that it has already attained collector status. I realize that it's a Holden, but that doesn't change the fact that it's a GTO.

Thats not really a production car though. The judge had many built while the newer gto is a concept car really. Even famous race variants of many cars needed homologation. I can see your view though.

They completely ignore the fact that the GTO was killed in 2006 because Holden stopped making them and would not authorize GM USA to make them in North America. Actual fact, Holden stopped making Monaros for Australia at the end of 2005. They continued to make GTO exclusively for the US through July 2006. The platform was killed because the Zeta platform was coming. Failing to mention this and blaming GM for not following through with a Judge version is a horrible argument.

OldskoolGP - I produce this show for Hagerty, I believe what Matt was saying was that this modified GTO was as close to a Judge as he thought would be seen after the original. The implication made in the video is that poor sales were the reason the newer GTO did not continue. Whether that was why Holden had them stop or why Pontiac stopped buying them is a good discussion point. I just wanted to clarify what I think Matt and Davin were getting at. Either way, we all feel it's a real tragedy Pontiac put out this awesome prototype right at the end of the run and it was to little to late. Thanks for watching!

@JoshsCarCorner

My point is that GM did not choose to stop making them. The platform the GTO was built on (the V RWD platform) was dated and being replaced by the Zeta platform that underpins the Commodore, and in the US the G8 and Camaro. The car we received was already the hottest version that Holden made, actually that HSV made to be precise. The LS2 produces more power than the platform was ever designed to handle and had to be reworked in 2005 to handle the extra power. Holden would not permit GM to build them in the US so even if they wanted to change it, they couldn't.

..and that American heartbeat carried in 5 decades of world class Australian muscle cars from Ford and GM Holden is being extinguished by Detroit execs. The Gen 5 Camaro was developed and engineered in Melbourne Australia on the locally developed Zeta platform (VE Commodore), it was the Gen 5 Camaro that set a NEW benchmark in what American pony/muscle cars could achieve, this was the first WORLD CLASS Camaro and it stung Ford USA into developing an equally competitive world class Mustang for the 6th gen. Without Australian know how, ingenuity, passion and skill I doubt the current golden age of American muscle car would be what it is today. Fans of modern American muscle are indebted to Australia for its design and engineering legacy. Even this unfairly maligned Australian made GTO? What did America produce back in 2006 that was any better? answer, NOTHING. Chevy Malibu, Lumina or some other front-wheel-drive garbage with a body kit? Mustang? well, better than the 4th gen, but not like the dynamics of the Holden/Pontiac GTO. ..oh and who designed the stunning 2017 Ford GT.?.that's right another Australian, Todd Willing, poached from Ford engineering and design centre in Melbourne.

2006 Pontiac GTO, possibly the worst modern take on a muscle car. Even when comparing the highly modified version to the old car, the modern one still loses. It doesn't have the looks, and even tho it may have crazy HP and better handling, Id much rather drive around in the old one. I might go as far as to say I wouldn't want to be seen driving the modern one.

It's American, it has a huge engine, and it has the power... I'd clearly take a 5.7 GTO over a 4.6 Mustang... or a GT... if those qualify, then hell... anything with 250hp should qualify if it's American lol...

Dig them both. Wish I haven't been forced to sell my 06.

I owned one of these Holden Monaro/Chevy Lumina SS/Pontiac GTO's. Having owned three C-5 Corvettes prior to the GTO I was really disappointed. The car felt sluggish compared to the Vettes because it weight 500lbs more, the styling of the car made it look like a pregnant Grand Am and on the inside the Grand Am had a more impressive looking dashboard. The tolerances were so tight that the inside tread of the front tire would be shaved off by the front suspension. I had to have my ignition switch replace twice in two years because they locked up. Makes the car kinda hard to drive when the key won't turn. There were quite a few complaints about these cars to the NHTSB considering they only built about 15000 of them in three years. I used to tell people that those GTO's were a good example of why Pontiac is no longer with us.
