04 GTO's

[Mirroredshades]

I was surfing on another forum and heard a number of people who have recently got 04 GTO's for $23,900. Appearently this is a national protocol. Can any of my F-buds verify this? I might come back to the Pontiac family at that price.

The 04 GTO sold poorly, lots of "leftovers", and is heavilly discounted. Pontiac dealers were originally trying to charge premiums over "sticker", and drove off a lot of potential customers. Then GM shot themselves in the foot by announcing too far in advance that the 05's would get the LS2 engine.

Yeah, you can get one for that price

Yeah, look on ebay there are some with less than 5k miles for under $25.

$5500 rebate right now on GTO's.

FYI, they made 15,728 '04 GTO's. Almost 13K have already been sold so there's not that many still floating around. The '05's have just hit California this week. So figure dealers will start to get them as early as next week. But most will start getting them in Jan '05.

I just stopped by the local dealer this morning on the way to work. They confirmed this and will me one for the $23,900... no stick shift cars around here though. All are automatics.

Apparently there was also a distribution problem with the '04's. Way too many of them went to the mid-west area as opposed to the souther states where a rwd coupe would obviously sell better. Add on top of that some horendous initial markups and you can see why they sold poorly.
