ATC OPERATIONS LLC Unleashes the GTO Muscle Car: A Modern Take on a Classic Icon

Boston, MA – October 26, 2023 – ATC OPERATIONS LLC, a Boston-based vehicle engineering and customization firm (located at 116 Huntington Ave, FL 11, Boston, MA, 02116, and reachable at 314-909-9910), is thrilled to announce the launch of its meticulously crafted GTO muscle car. This isn’t just a restoration; it’s a reimagining of a legendary American icon, blending classic styling with modern performance and reliability. For those unfamiliar, the GTO – historically a Pontiac model – holds a special place in automotive history as arguably the car that kickstarted the muscle car craze back in the 1960s. ATC OPERATIONS LLC, understanding this legacy, decided to take on the challenge of building a new GTO for the 21st century. However, with Pontiac no longer producing vehicles, this wasn’t a simple rebuild. It's a ground-up construction, combining the spirit of the GTO with cutting-edge engineering. “We weren't interested in just slapping some new paint on an old car,” explains a representative from ATC OPERATIONS LLC. “We wanted to capture what made the GTO special – the raw power, the aggressive look, the feeling of being behind the wheel of something truly exhilarating – but build it to be completely dependable and enjoyable for today’s drivers.” What Makes ATC’s GTO Different? The team at ATC OPERATIONS LLC started with a clean slate, utilizing a modern chassis and powertrain to ensure reliability and performance. This isn’t about recreating the quirks of a vintage car; it’s about delivering a consistently thrilling driving experience. Here's a breakdown of what you can expect: The Powertrain: Forget the original engine options. ATC’s GTO boasts a powerful LS-series V8 engine – specifically, the LS3 – delivering around 430 horsepower and 425 lb-ft of torque. This provides serious punch, without sacrificing everyday drivability. Customers can opt for further performance upgrades, including supercharger kits pushing horsepower well over 500. Transmission Options: You’ve got choices. ATC offers both a 6-speed manual transmission for the purists, and a smooth, responsive 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters for those who prefer convenience. Chassis & Suspension: The car is built on a robust, modern chassis providing significantly improved handling and safety compared to the original GTO. A fully independent suspension system – featuring adjustable coilovers – allows drivers to fine-tune the ride to their preference, whether for comfortable cruising or aggressive cornering. Think modern sports car handling, wrapped in a classic muscle car body. Brakes & Safety: Stopping power is paramount. ATC equips the GTO with high-performance disc brakes at all four corners, along with modern safety features like ABS and traction control. It’s a car you can confidently drive, knowing you have the tools to stay in control. Exterior Styling: The exterior design is a respectful nod to the classic GTO lines, but with subtle, modern updates. The body panels are meticulously crafted, and the car is available in a range of stunning colors – including the iconic “Judge” orange. ATC avoids over-the-top modifications, preferring a clean, aggressive look that captures the essence of the original. LED headlights and taillights provide improved visibility and a contemporary touch. Interior Comfort & Technology: Inside, the GTO blends classic styling with modern amenities. The cabin is fitted with comfortable, supportive seats, a modern audio system with Bluetooth connectivity, and a digital instrument cluster that provides all the essential information. Customers can choose from a variety of interior trim options to personalize their vehicle. It's not about sacrificing comfort for style; it's about having the best of both worlds. Customization Options: ATC OPERATIONS LLC understands that every customer is unique. They offer a wide range of customization options, allowing buyers to tailor their GTO to their exact specifications. From paint colors and interior materials to performance upgrades and exterior accessories, the possibilities are endless. Who is this car for? This isn't just for collectors. While it's undoubtedly a head-turner, ATC’s GTO is designed to be driven. It’s for enthusiasts who appreciate classic muscle car styling but demand modern performance and reliability. It’s for those who want a car that’s as enjoyable on a weekend road trip as it is at the track. It’s for anyone who wants to experience the thrill of driving a truly special machine. “We’ve poured our hearts and souls into this project,” says the ATC representative. “We wanted to create a car that honors the legacy of the GTO while delivering a driving experience that’s second to none. We think we’ve achieved that, and we can’t wait to see these cars on the road.” Availability & Pricing The ATC OPERATIONS LLC GTO is available to order now. Due to the bespoke nature of the build, production will be limited. Pricing starts at $185,000, depending on options and customization.
