I have to say one final thing on this..

The BEST car I have EVER owned.. is my 2006 Pontiac GTO

Due to its rarity (Mine is Blue with a Blue Leather INterior one of only 2400 built with the Blue Leather), I have already hoarded away a complete interior, and headlights, tailights and other trim.. That way I have replacement parts for its eventual restoration in 2026..

Its like driving a BMW with a Corvette drivetrain.. 400 HP is just plain sweet..

It does look as the Holden Commodore/ Pontiac G8 may return as a Impala SS.
