The 1966 Pontiac GTO is one of the most iconic muscle cars in American automotive history, and the factory-oriented green color from that year is officially called Palmetto Green (lacquer code H). This is a stylish, light metallic green-blue shade that was very popular at the time and was often combined with a black vinyl roof or an interior in contrasting white (Parchment).
Features of the '66 GTO:
Engine options: The car came standard with the legendary 389 cubic inch (6.5 liter) V8 engine, good for 335 hp. For those who wanted more power, there was the famous Tri-Power option (three double carburetors) that increased the power to 360 hp.
Design: 1966 was the first year that the GTO became a standalone model within Pontiac (instead of an option package for the LeMans/Tempest). The model introduced the iconic "Coke-bottle" styling with wavy lines and the unique, grilled-integrated taillights.
Rarity: In addition to Palmetto Green, you sometimes come across rarer factory colors like Linden Green, or deeper custom variants like Forest Green.
