	An entirely new GTO on a new platform (Zeta, shared also with a new Holden Commodore) should appear in or around 2008. Featuring more aggressive body work, the car may be a coupé with suicide doors, like the Mazda RX-8 and the [[Saturn ION\|Saturn ION coupe]]. General Motors is considering how they may produce both the 2008 GTO and the [[Chevrolet Camaro\|2010 Chevrolet Camaro]] without competing directly with each other. (UPDATE: It's 2009 and we've heard nothing about a new GTO - this is clearly false.)

	For the 2006 model year, the GTO gained two new colors, Spice Red and Brazen Orange, and dropped the Yellow Jacket color. Other minor additions are clear taillights, an unlock button added to the center console, illuminated steering wheel controls and increased motor speeds for seat movement.

	The 2005 model year continued the optional hood scoops, split rear exhaust, optional 18" rims, and offered a new engine, the ''LS2'' engine. This increased power and torque in the GTO to 400 [[HP\|hp]] (298 kW) and 400 ft·lb. The increased torque necessitated moving from the ''4L60-E'' [[Automatic transmission\|automatic]] to the stronger ''4L65-E'' transmission. The colors Cyclone Grey and ~~Torrid Red~~ were added, while Barbados Blue and Cosmos Purple were dropped. The HVAC controls were ever-so-slightly modified also.

	The [[Pontiac GTO]] nameplate was revived for the 2004 model year, now as an American-market version of the Australian-built Holden Monaro.
