Used 2005 Pontiac GTO for sale near me

They were very knowledgeable and helpful answering all the questions I had regarding the car, highly recommend.

So September 20th 2025 I finally bought my dream car 2005 gto impulse blue with the blue seats with only 28500 miles on it. It has a stage 2 cam 243 ported heads long tube headers full cat back bora exhaust, ported throttle body, drag bags 18inch after market rims and brand new tires voolant cool intake 220 degrees thermostat. Its so freaking fast like 4 real the recipe for work was 10k thats without rims and tires. Its basically 500 hp I live in Chicago and had it shipped from Oregon. No rust even on under carriage paid $23500 out right 2k to ship and $2200 for tax title and plates so total $27500. I wouldn't take it back for nothing! It holds its valve very well and will only go up. Its not my daily driver either just my fun car i use when I want just not in the snow lol.

I first met Brian Henry at a Cars and Coffee event back in 2016. In the subsequent seven years I have come to know and trust Brian. I purchased an Evora S and Mercedes S65 AMG from Brian and he helped me to consign/sell a E36 M3 prior to his purchase of MotorVault in Indianapolis. As the owner of MotorVault, Brian has continued to be of valuable assistance. He helped us to locate and purchase a Mercedes E63s wagon from the east coast for my wife in 2020 and more recently in 2023 purchase a Porsche 911 GTS locally. With the purchase of the Porsche, he helped me to sell a M2 Competition and a 335is convertible where he managed all facets from pick-up, detailing, photography, listing, etc. to personally delivering a check. It was incredibly easy. I also came to look at and drive several other vehicles which I ultimately did not purchase including a tuned Mustang GT, Alfa 4C, race prepped Cayman S with TPC turbo, Focus RS, two Cayman GT4s and a Boxster S. Whether you are purchasing a vehicle or “just checking out what’s out there”, Brian’s approach remains the same – he is honest, helpful, and friendly with zero sales pressure. Instead of being a “sales guy”, he is a true automotive enthusiast who seeks to create a long-term relationship by helping you to find that vehicle which will serve you best in the long run, even if that vehicle is not one that he is selling or representing. I have zero reservations strongly recommending Brian Henry and MotorVault and, in fact, have to my family, friends and colleagues. Additionally, I have made it a daily habit to check out his website and Facebook posts as some of his best offerings come and go so quickly. If you are in the market to purchase or sell a vehicle or “just looking”, do yourself a favor and check out what Brian and MotorVault have to offer.

Love the car, its a joy to drive. Love that it tells you that you have driven two hours and you should stop and rest.

I was glad to see the van, but when they said $282 monthly I said probably not.

Back in 2005 I never thought I would purchase a $35,000 car, but the Pontiac GTO had everything I was looking for in a sporty car: Excellent styling, rear wheel drive, large powerful V8 engine, solid transmission, and a stiff suspension. I am SO glad I bought it when I did, rather than waiting for the "new" Camaro to debut. The Camaro was a HUGE disappointment, with its high belt-line (meaning much smaller windows that are too high to comfortably rest your arm on the window sill while driving!), poor visibility, and cheap interior plastics. In contrast, the GTO has large windows, very nice soft plastics in the interior and very nice suede fabric on the door panels. The seats provide excellent support. While the GTO is low to the ground (it IS a sport car, after all), it is not difficult to get into and out of as many sporty cars are. And you do not feel like you are sitting in a "bucket" that you need to climb out of, as is the case with most unibody constructed cars. The LS2 6.0L V8 engine is awesome, with plenty of power in reserve at all times. Yes, premium fuel is recommended, but at least the engine has no gimmicks like a turbo that needs to be cooled down after you stop, before you turn the engine off! The automatic transmission is also a very strong 4-speed (including overdrive) model, rather than those newer 6-, 7-, and 8-speed automatics that cannot decide what gear to be in when you are trying to accelerate quickly or climb the mountains! The steering and suspension are very tight, with no play whatsoever. Problems? The throttle-body unit had to be replaced, and would have been under warranty if I had driven it more in the first 3 years (warranty period). The radiator sprung a leak after 120,000 miles, and a small plastic heater valve developed a crack at 146,000 miles, causing all coolant to drain out; then the replacement part also cracked within 3 weeks! But that has been it. One interior mistake was the standard power seats. When you are in a hurry to get into or out of the back seat, you need to press a button and hold it to move the seat forward to give enough space to climb in and out of the back. This mechanism has broken on BOTH of my front seats; the passenger seat now cannot move at all; it cannot even recline. I have not had it fixed because the estimate for parts and labor was close to $1100! Speaking of the back seat, you would be hard-pressed to find a two-door car with as roomy a back seat as this one. Back seat passengers have a tremendous amount of room. Because of the different rear-impact standards in the USA from Australia (where the GTO was made), the gasoline tank had to be relocated for the US market to behind the back seat. The result is that the trunk is quite small. I have not had a problem with it, but that's because I travel alone. My GTO has 147,000 miles now and is still on the original set of brakes! I am upset that this vehicle is nearing the end of its reliable life (how much longer can the water pump, fuel pump, hoses, etc last before I get stranded?) because there is really nothing else to replace it at a reasonable price. The Camaro design is poor (a shame because I usually love the feel and characteristics of GM cars), and I don't trust Ford (Mustang) or Chrysler (Dodge Challenger) reliability; I have heard of too many problems with them (Challenger = 8-speed automatic transmission.... ridiculous!). And I don't want to buy any technology that is older than this GTO. I don't mind continuing to pay for repairs, since I still love this car, but I just don't want to get stranded in some remote unfamiliar area, away from repair shops I trust. I wonder about parts availability in the future too, since it is a Pontiac, and there were so few GTO's built during its 3-year run (I believe it was limited to 18,000 per year?).

As a daily driver this car has everything needed to get there while having fun. Power is exciting and handling excellent. I Love this car.

I had such a great experience at SHOT. My salesman was great. I will be back. I definitely felt they went the extra mile to get me into a vehicle that was dependable and within my budget

I bought my GTO new in 2006 and just sold it a week ago - owned for 11 years and 98,000 miles. Only major problem ever was a crack in the radiator. That was a common problem for them. I replaced it with an all aluminum radiator and never another problem. One of the most reliable cars I ever owned. As far as performance - you couldn't beat it in that price range. A Corvette drivetrain and refined suspension plus great braking for about $30,000. Today you can get one around $10,000 and if it was well maintained you are still getting a steal. Looks department - I was still getting compliments 11 years later. They did a great job making in my opinion one of the best looking 4-seat sports coupes ever. It looked like it wanted to go 100 miles an hour when it was standing still. Not a bad viewing angle from any direction. Overall I would have to say it was probably my favorite car I ever owned and I have had Corvettes, Camaros, Mustangs and even a couple of imports like an RX-7 twin turbo. I would have kept it, but hey, life changes. If you are interested in one of these, you will not be disappointed in pulling the trigger and putting one in your garage.

Thank you so much Bronson and Automaxx Roseville for our beautiful Honda Pilot!!! Our search for a new used vehicle was treacherous to say the least, ending with you guys was literally a breath of fresh air. My only regret in dealing with you guys is not coming to you first. My family couldn't be more happy and thankful!

Jad, The salesperson was absolutely fabulous! He really knew his stuff and shared everything with me without any pressure to purchase the vehicle. Probably the best salesman I've ever dealt with and I'm 72! Steve j. Sisson

From the outside you wouldnt expect the awesome cars this dealership has. But it's honesty worth the stop. They don't hassle you, they let you browse their lot and give you, your space. But they arr right there when you are ready for a test drive. We got a ford foucs and love it. They were able to work with the price we wanted, and made it easy to finish a deal. Also, the CD player didn't work and the owner got us a new one!! Most used lots would never do that. I really appreciate the awesome customer service they have.And will defiantly go there first when we decided, we are ready for another vehicle. Thank you for a reliable car and great service.

Mr Zeidan has been great to work with. He has answered all the questions and concerns and very helpful. I will soon be purchasing the car of interest.

Traveled from eastern Iowa to purchase our dream car, a 2008 Ford Mustang GT Bullitt, from Power Motorcars in Naperville, IL. Found the vehicle listed on AutoTrader as well as CarGurus and Cars.com. Contacted Karim (owner) who was very friendly and easy to work with. He displayed honesty and integrity as he critiqued the Mustang via FaceTime. Upon our arrival, the Mustang was just as advertised and it was a no pressure sale. We love the car and highly recommend Power Motorcars!

I am beyond pleased and impressed with this dealership. Working with Rami and his team was easy, efficient, and professional. I used my own credit union for my financing and even they said what a pleasure it was working with Rami and Diamond and just how thorough and on top of things they were. I had never shipped a car out of state before and this was also my first Porsche and I’m sure I wasn’t the easiest to deal with at times, not on purpose of course, but just because it was such a new experience. I felt very taken care of and accommodated with everything I needed. Great communication and very fair. I can’t say enough good things! Very very happy and this dealer is top notch with quality of cars also - immaculate cars and care of them. My transport company even commented how nice this dealership is. We will be back for sure ! Thank you!!!

Beyond happy with my purchase here at Oswego Motors, Jared & the team are great! I Love My BMW
