World’s most expensive Pontiac sells for $1.1M

A 1970 Pontiac GTO Judge just found a new owner who forked over 1,100,000 USD for it, setting a new price record for the now-defunct brand, according to Carscoops.

The selling price was largely justified by the sheer rarity of the Judge spec and the good condition of the car. It is believed that John DeLorean himself, Head of the Pontiac Division of General Motors at the time, gave the power-boosted GTO that nickname.

The company made 3,797 Judge cars in 1970, less than 10 percent of the total number of GTO models produced that year. Of those, only 168 had an open top. Of those 168, only 7 had a potent Ram Air IV engine under the hood linked to an automatic transmission. The 6.5-liter V8 featured a state-of-the-art intake and hit the wheels with 370 PS (365 hp / 272 kW) and 680 Nm (502 lb-ft) of torque.

In the year following the assembly, this specific Pontiac stayed at the factory premises as a demo car. Naturally, it was richly equipped – with power steering, front rotor brakes, a radio, a cassette player, a tinted windshield and a special steering wheel.

The authenticity of the car is confirmed by a bunch of competition victory certificates it comes with. The auction holder pointed out that it had been previously restored.
