Being new to the GTO world and living abroad, this book was my only resource in determining authenticity and value. With the help of this book, I was able to make an educated purchase. I recommend it to anyone interested in purchasing a GTO.

I like this book, because it tells clearly the history of the GTO, and it's helpful to know the various versions of the car. The main quality of the book is the synthesis, because the author doesn't put in the text an excessive number of facts; he writes only the essential informations to know the car, like the aestetic characteristics, the displacement of the engines, the basic characteristics of the fuel systems and the speed gears, the colours, the codes for the identification and other historical informations. The text is accompanied by a lot of photographs in black and white, that represents the cars and their passenger compartments and engines.
The limitations of the book are the absence of photographs in colour, and the brevity of the technical informations about the cars and the engines.
In spite of these limitations, this book is a good point of departure to know or buy the GTO.

Good B&W photos. Little technical information (specifications, performance data, etc.). Good collectibility guide.
