Regular Car Reviews is back with another review of a classic car that is sure to make you want to take a road trip. This time, it's the 2006 Pontiac GTO, also known as the Holden Monaro. This unmodified car is equipped with a 6-speed Tremec transmission, rear-wheel drive, and a defeatable traction control. It's a car that was overlooked in the 2000s, but is now getting some serious attention. With 400 horsepower and 400 foot-pounds of torque, this car has plenty of power and can reach a top speed of 180 miles per hour. It's a car that can do it all, from road trips to drag racing.

Viewer Reactions for 2006 Pontiac GTO 6MT: Regular Car Reviews
Many viewers are familiar with the car, either owning one themselves or knowing someone who does. The Monaro has been praised for its Euro handling, Noughties styling, and American muscle, and many viewers feel that GM dropped the ball by not properly advertising the car. The Monaro has become a cult classic, with many viewers having posters of the car in their childhood bedrooms. The video also brings up the issue of registering a car in California, as the GTR is not CARB certified and therefore cannot be registered in the state. Finally, viewers have lamented the fact that the Monaro's exterior design did not call back to the original muscle car, and that this may have been the reason it did not sell as well as it should have.
