I've seen the silver one, what about the rest? I'm especially interested in red

Do a search for the Last Ride. The movie car was red and had an extremely close version of the 05 hood and rear bumper. It was also sporting the RMR front bumper.

Other than that you can see all the colors pretty well in the GTO registry we have here, but I am yet to find pics of the new colors offered in 05. :unsure:

Let me rephrase that.... I want pictures of the "05" in all the colors that it comes in. The car has a different look with the spoiler and split exhaust and my imagination isn't good enough to satisfy me.

Lol, well then you will have to wait untill GM decides to post more.

Cyclone Grey, perhaps ?

Thats a photoshop, not the actual color. But I imagine it might be close to the Medium spiral grey that was on the vette for a year or two.

You can tell its a shop as the Pontiac emblem is also grey, which wouldn't be the case on an actual grey car.

Haven't you heard about the black chrome/grey badges option package ?

:blink:

Lol I must not have, must be another clear turn signal indicator, and badge option also.

**** I thought it was a real picture at first. Even though it's fake it still looks good.

Here's some I found on an Australian site...

This gets my vote for Cyclone Gray...

Looks pretty close to the "photoshopped" picture.

What do you think ?

:knightrider:

True, it is close and I imagine thats probably cyclone grey which is a nice colors also. But the top one is still a chop job.

bad a** i must say, love the color :eatarrow:

Holden just released pictures of their 2005 cars and one has a new "grey" color...

Not real great quality but here is the color list for the 2005 on the updated ordering info. Click on each color to bring up a small picture of the color. I'm glad they got rid of the purple.

If it where up to me Quicksilver and Phantom black GTO's could be ordered with Impulse Blue interior and gauges!

well if they dropped cosmo purple i wont get a 2005 then...guess i'll just hafta try to find a used 2004 :unsure:

You can probably still find a new "04.

:huh:

:D

Nice photoshop.

:knightrider:
thats actually turbine grey, limited edition for the CV8-R, it includes HSV Garage guages and a white leather interior. Storm grey looks more bluish...kinda looks like they took Barbados blue and made it even more dull than it was before.

Those wheels blow and the gas door position really sucks. Is that an illuminated light on the fender? That could be kinda trick........

That white photoshop looks pretty **** good.

It is kinda strange that the goat is not offered in white. One of the few cars that you cant get in white. I think the car isnt aggresive looking enough to be offered in white.

There are two things we should never underestimate in life:

(1) The power of stupid people in large groups

(2) The power of Photoshop

B)

Midnight Blue Metallic ;)

How could that be Midnight Blue since 05s haven't been produced yet? Did the dealer repaint it? Has that exact color been offered in NA so we could buy the paint? Did you photoshop it?

I will agree it doesn't look like Impulse Blue but depending on the lighting who knows.

Gas door is a pretty standard location on aussie cars, they moved it for the GTO... i believe the next Monaro will have the same gas cap location as the GTO (i.e. higher up).....

As to the illuminated light, if i recall correct it is an indicator, on the GTO's it is replaced by the GTO badge. No trick...just stock :)

I use color from GM catalog and Photoshop it

paint WA-718H

Nice job Dede! Hopefully the real one is as good as that.

Hers a chop with the ram air in black.....NICE!!

I want Impulse Blue.... :lol:

I seen the 2005 color swatch's at a dealership on 9-29.
The cyclone gray was fairly close to the graystone metallic on the grand prix's.....slight difference was that graystone has a slight green tint to it and the cyclone gray had a slight blue tint to it. Very nice looking color and the one I would pick if I hadnt picked up a 04 IBM/black A4 last night. :D

That is some good Photoshop work man! I usually don't go for white, but it looks really good on the GTO. Even better with the red interior.

Thanks, you would be suprised how much time I put into that chop... But I use a higher rez version as my desktop to remind me what i'm saving all my money for, otherwise i'd go buy myself a new widescreen TV, big LCD moniter for my computer and who knows what else...

They shuld have a metallic red that at some angles is a orange and at another a mix between candy apply red and orange... THat would be schweet!!!!

That or a metallic blue green color change scheme... Or a metallic white that changes colors at angles! If that was done it would be sweet!

You mean pearl white? I think the car deserves a flat white but pearl white is more for luxo cars only, and is pretty much out of style anyhow.

You tell pearl white is out of style to all the soccer moms drving escalades around here. Well I like it but its a luxury car thing, not really a GTO kind of color. I think the Bonneville comes with it but the Bonneville is pontiacs lux model.

No no no, i dont mean pearl white, i mean an actually metalic white... If someone could make a metallic color that apeared white at some angle and black at another... Ive seen it before somewhere... Just dont remember what and where...

I bet that is expensive paint... That'd be kinda cool though.
