or is that also the Lumina outside the united states.... which is the catera in the united states... ok i am confusing myself with all these GM names

[stalker]

It is the same as the GTO but with 4 doors, all the new GTO have 6ltr Geb 4 but the previous ones up untill 05 had the Gen3, this is the same motor as mine...

Never heard of the Holden either, but my limited knowledge is to the US, Southwest Asia, and some Korea. The big 06 GTO has the 6 Liter engine as opposed to the previous year's 5.7, and previous to that, the WS6 - which had it's guts put in the GTO - but that would be in line with last year's models. Saw an 06 GTO the other day, it was pretty sweet, very respectable, but on the looks side I think it looks too similar to a lot of GM cars. Grand Prix, Grand AM, Lumina, Catera, Impala, Monte Carlo, etc. Pontiac used to do a good job of really distinguishing their bodies from their GM cousins, but that seems to be getting lost in translation or something.

They do a lot of mixing of these types of cars overseas (overseas from me that is) from what I've seen. While I was in Kuwait, a friend of mine had a Chevrolet LTZ, which bore a striking resemblence in looks and power to the Catera. Not to mention actually seeing Honda Integras. ;-)

But it looks like you have a very nice ride, and I'm sure you'll get lots of enjoyment and gas bills out of it! ;-)
