So I keep singing my song.

Chris Peterson

What's more true today than it was last year is you have to offer a competitive price and a competitive home. I don't think anybody's going to stop what's in the pipeline. It's just going to be competitive and that's good for the consumer.

Jim Hopson

We're sorry to see it go. It took 30 years to put that name back on a Pontiac car. GTO did what it needed to do: Give us a credible performance vehicle to attract people into showrooms. Even those who quibbled about the styling never questioned the car's performance.
