2005 Pontiac GTO. The exterior is Impulse Blue Metallic and the interior is Barbados Blue leather and suede with Bermuda Blue gauges. This car is incredibly rare, 1 of 347 made. This GTO is as nice as they get. Adult owned and garage kept. This car has been meticulously maintained and properly cared for. Never abused or mistreated. It has absolutely no problems or issues. It starts right up every time. It idles perfectly. The 6-speed T56 M12 transmission shifts through all gears with no issues. The 6.0L LS2 engine runs very smoothly with loads of power on demand. The exhaust sounds amazing at every rpm and at wide open throttle it just screams! This GTO is an absolute joy to drive. The Brembo brakes have outstanding stopping power and the full Pedders suspension performs with smooth, precise handling. This car was built and tuned for big power with the best fuel economy for daily driving (22mpg City/27mpg Highway). This GTO performs at every level, but achieving this came with a price. Over $18000 has been invested into this GTO to make this a truly incredible car. Every performance area has been upgraded with quality parts (Suspension, Brakes, Drive train, and Engine). This GTO was Dynojet dyno tuned and made 429rwhp and 393ft/lb torque on 91 octane fuel. That's approximately 504hp at the crank! The dyno tech's calculation for crank hp was 429rwhp / .85 = 504.7hp at the crank, which accounts for the 15% drive train loss with the 6-Speed manual transmission. There is plenty of room for more power but you would be sacrificing fuel economy and using higher octane fuel which is not available everywhere. All the pcm settings were professionally reprogrammed, which included things like setting the idle with and without the a/c active, adjusting the rev limiter and fuel cut-off, setting the cooling fan activation temperatures, recalibrating the maf settings, fuel injector rescaling for the bigger 42lb LS3 injectors, and disabling the codes that would trip the check engine light due to the performance modifications. All the necessary adjustments have been made to maximize performance, fuel economy, and daily reliability. This car has never been abused, tracked, or raced, just driven by a responsible adult. Again, this GTO has zero issues. No leaks, no smoke, no warning lights, no weird noises, nothing. This GTO is in excellent condition. The Impulse Blue Metallic paint is beautiful and shines like new. This car is showroom clean with no dents or major scratches. There is no damage anywhere on the car. The car has never been involved in any accidents. It has a perfect Carfax report. The glass has no cracks or chips. The headlights and tail lights are shiny and clear with no haze. This car is not new so please expect some rock chips up front from highway driving. Besides a few very minor scratches in the paint, this car is mint. The ZO6 wheels are very nice and shiny but show a little wear. The front Brembo calipers are clean and still look new. This GTO looks amazing at every angle. The interior is showroom clean. The Barbados Blue Leather seats are very nice and super comfortable. The leather has been conditioned regularly. There are no rips, cuts, stains, or seams coming loose anywhere (the window tint prevented the common seam issue). The carpet is very clean with no holes or stains. The door panels, dash, center console, and headliner are super clean and still look new. Every interior gadget and option is in perfect condition. All power options and electronics work flawlessly with no issues. The power seats and power windows work great. Cruise Control operates perfectly. The JVC Stereo sounds amazing and it accommodates Bluetooth, iPod, MP3, USB, AUX, Pandora, ect. The volume up button on the steering wheel does not work but the steering wheel volume controls don't work with the JVC head unit anyway. The stock Blaupunkt 6 Disc stereo is included. All interior lights work perfectly, including the blue LED foot well lights. The front passenger seat shows a little wear on the left thigh area because the seat cushions were swapped to cut down the miles on the driver side cushion. There is a little wear on the silver steering wheel spokes. Online forums say it’s common with most GTOs. Overall, the interior is immaculate and looks amazing. The trunk area is nice and clean and the original spare and tools are intact. The engine bay is absolutely spotless. Maintenance is up to date. This GTO is always ready to drive anywhere. The Nitto tires are still like new with 85% tread life left. It recently had a fresh Mobil 1 Full Synthetic oil change and the air filter was cleaned and recharged – 93, 750 miles. Mobil 1 5w30 Full Synthetic is the only oil that ha
