Pontiac built some of the wildest, most charismatic cars to ever wear a hood scoop, and the current Motorious inventory proves the excitement isn't fading. From numbers-matching Super Duty legends to modern LS-swapped restomods, here are ten of the coolest Pontiacs available right now.
No. 1 — 1973 Pontiac Trans Am SD-455 — $349,900
The Super Duty 455 was the last, loudest gasp of the muscle car era, and this Buccaneer Red example is about as good as it gets. Restored down to the nut and bolt, it's one of just 72 SD-455 Trans Ams built with a 4-speed manual in 1973, and PHS documentation confirms its numbers-matching pedigree. This is the car that made Pontiac's early '70s lineup legendary.

No. 2 — 1962 Pontiac Catalina Super Duty — $145,000
Before the GTO existed, Pontiac was already terrorizing the drag strip with cars like this one. Built with the 421 Super Duty V8, an aluminum hood and body components, and dual quads, this Catalina was engineered purely to win NHRA classes. Very few of these lightweight factory drag cars survive, and this one comes with its original PHS paperwork.

No. 3 — 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge Ram Air III — $135,495
Few colors say 1970 quite like Palomino Copper, and this numbers-matching Judge wears it beautifully. It retains its original Ram Air III 400 V8, a Muncie 4-speed, and a Safe-T-Track rear axle, and PHS documentation confirms it's one of just 3,629 Judge hardtops built that year. The Judge wasn't just an option package, it was Pontiac's way of telling the muscle car world it wasn't backing down.

No. 4 — 1957 Pontiac Bonneville (Fuel-Injected) — $159,000
Before the GTO, before the Trans Am, there was this: Pontiac's answer to the fuel-injected Corvette. Only 630 Bonnevilles were built for 1957, one allocated to every Pontiac dealer in the country, and each one ran a 347ci V8 topped with genuine Rochester fuel injection. That made the Bonneville some of the most advanced factory hardware in America that year, and finding one that still runs its original fuel injection system today is exceptionally rare.

No. 5 — 1966 Pontiac LeMans Restomod — $194,995
Not every cool Pontiac has to be original. This 1966 LeMans went through a frame-off transformation at Danny's Hot Rods, emerging with a 525-horsepower LS3 crate engine, a 4L80E automatic, Wilwood disc brakes, and a modern coilover suspension, all wrapped in a blue-over-white paint scheme that still reads unmistakably '60s Pontiac. With barely 200 miles since completion, it drives as good as it looks.

No. 6 — 1970 Pontiac GTO Convertible Judge Tribute — $163,000
The Judge package made the GTO louder in every sense, and dropping the top only turns up the volume. This convertible tribute pairs a 400 CID V8 with a 4-speed manual and a power-operated soft top, so you get the drama of the Judge graphics package with open-air cruising built in. Black on black never looked more menacing.

No. 7 — 1977 Pontiac Firebird Roadster Trans Am — $144,000
The Bandit-era Trans Am wasn't supposed to be a convertible, which is exactly what makes this roadster conversion so interesting. Finished in black with black leather and Alcantara, it pairs its 400ci V8 and TH400 automatic with wider aluminum wheels and a cabin that splits the difference between disco-era muscle and open-top cruiser. It's the kind of custom that turns heads for reasons nobody expects.

No. 8 — 1983 Pontiac "KITT" Knight Rider Tribute — $4,500
Not every entry on this list needs a big-block V8 to be cool. This KITT tribute was built in 1991 by Mark Scricani of Mark's Custom Kits, using original production designs to recreate the AI supercar from Knight Rider, and it later passed through George Barris's famous Star Car Collection with his autograph to prove it. It won't outrun anything, but no other Pontiac on this list has ever talked back to Michael Knight.

No. 9 — 1967 Pontiac GTO Twin Turbo LS7 Restomod — $76,995
If the LeMans above is a tasteful restomod, this GTO is the unhinged version. Under that Tiger Gold paint sits an LS7 fed by twin turbos, backed by a 6-speed manual, four-wheel power discs, and a 9-inch rear axle, with Wilwood binders and Brodix heads rounding out the spec sheet. It's built for the driver who thinks a modern V8 alone isn't quite enough.

No. 10 — 2008 Pontiac Solstice GXP LS3 — $22,995
Closing out this list is proof that Pontiac's roadster experiment still has legs. This Solstice GXP received an LS3 6.2-liter V8 swap paired with a 6L80E automatic, turning what was already a fun two-seater into a genuine sleeper. With Techno Gray paint and an ebony leather interior, it looks factory-stock right up until you put your foot down.
