There are so many great Pontiacs to choose from it makes for a tough decision but as some have suggested get the one you want. I think a lot of us gravitate toward the model that first drew us to the Pontiac brand. In my case it was a plain jane 1965 GTO that my brother bought used. That car was the 'hook' that got me started. It was preceded by an event from 2 years earlier when I was at my high school and a guy pulled up at our gym where we were shooting some hoops. It was a 1965 GTO with the 389 tri-power and 4-speed. I had never seen such a beautiful sight under the hood of a car.
