In 2004 the Pontiac GTO was relaunched in the United States market as a rebadged, third generation Holden Monaro, assembled by Holden at the Elizabeth plant. It used the 5.7 liter LS1 V8 with a choice of a six speed manual or a four speed automatic, and sales totaled 13,569 of the 15,728 imported cars, against General Motors' hopes of 18,000. The revival was prompted by Bob Lutz after reading a review of the Holden Commodore SS in Car and Driver. General Motors engineers benchmarked the sound of the 1964 GTO held in the Pontiac historical collection when tuning the exhaust.
