Just bought an '04 Goat and I loved it...for 2 days. Back to the dealership and now I am waiting for parts to be imported from Australia to overhaul the manual transmisson. Reverse stopped working. Why are these parts not on hand??? For 2 days, this was my dream car. I can't wait to get it back but I'm afraid I may have a lemon. Pontiacs are not exactly known for having the best transmissions out there.

about all I can say is this car is awesome. megga power and so comfortable. I love everything about this car. the mustang cobra svt may be a tad faster but when you sit in a gto and then get into a mustang there is no comparison. the mustang feels like a cheap econo rocket.

A quick fix for the Headlights...

A fix for the headlights is to aim them up a bit. Its not that they are not bright enough, all cars are the same, its that they shine too close to the front of the car. Adjust them up just six inches against a wall. To do this: 1. Open the hood and locate the headlight adjustment screw (maybe look in manual or ask a mechanic). 2. At night, adjust this screw so the headlight shines approximently 6" higher. DO NOT adjust it up so high that it shines into the backseat of cars in front of you, thats too high and annoying to others (extremely!). I know this will work. I don't know why GM has taken to adjusting them too low (same on my '97 Z28).

No matter what the magazines say, this car was worth every penny! I've gotten alot of positive comments on it's looks, and the enterior is really nice. And of course the power is the icing on the cake. The things I look for when purchasing a car are: Looks, power, good radio, and quality. This car has them all. With only 18,000 built a year, for 3 years, I'm totally happy that I have mine now.

At first I thought it was a Grand AM on steroids, but after looking over the car from the engine to the detail of the interior, this car is absoulutely beautiful. At the turn of the key, you know you have a great thing. The way the engine growls and the power to force you back into your seat is a very welcomed feeling. Thank you for such a great car. Also, thank you for making them affordable because I now have one and absolutely love it!!!
