The 1966 Pontiac GTO is considered by many to be the original muscle car. It was introduced in 1964 as an option package on the Pontiac LeMans, but it quickly became so popular that it was spun off into its own model in 1966.

The GTO was powered by a 389-cubic-inch V8 engine that produced 335 horsepower. It was available with a variety of transmission options, including a three-speed manual, a four-speed manual, and a two-speed automatic. The GTO could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 6.5 seconds, and it had a top speed of over 120 mph.

It was also notable for its stylish design. It featured a long hood, short deck, and kicked-up rear fender lines.

The 1966 GTO was a huge success. Pontiac sold over 96,000 units, making it the best-selling muscle car of the year. The GTO helped to launch the muscle car era, and it remains one of the most popular and iconic muscle cars of all time.
