beautiful car, makes me wish I lived in the US the cars are great and fuel is cheap, running a GTO in the Uk would only be for rich people or people on £30k+ a year without kids....

Having grown up in the Detroit area, we know our cars. No where in the world will you find a plethora of information from Every individual. No where will you find better car maker's. Detroit Michigan, The United States of America. That's was good information/narrative. Thanks!

The GTO was the creation of John DeLorean. Yes, the guy who made the stainless steel cars in the 80's. The same car in Back to the Future.

technically the Ferrari GTO was first in 1962,a rare highly sought after collectible, Pontiac copied the name and 2 year's later, made a tempest into a GTO.

Around 2012, I was talking to a neighbor in Harriman, Tenn about favorite cars, and I told him that mine was the '67 GTO. He said, "really". He opened his garage door, and there it was, a blue 1967 GTO.

"hommologotto" is not an English word. It is, however, what Google translate provides, probably as a transliteration since it doesn't know the meaning of "ommologotto". "Class" is probably a better translation: "This car is a Grand Tour Class car."
