Premium Interior
Premium materials and outstanding design are evident throughout the ’06 GTO.
Seating configuration is 2+2 with the rear seats being as supportive and stylish
as the front sport seats. All-leather seating and a leather-covered steering
wheel and shifter knob continue the luxury theme.
Contrasting materials and colors accentuate the GTO’s contemporary interior
styling. Interior seat and trim colors may be coordinated to the exterior color
with red, blue and black interiors available. For ’06, new orange stitching on
the seats, armrests and other interior trim items can be matched to the new
Fusion Orange exterior color, along with orange-background instruments.
Racing-inspired drilled metallic pedals, satin nickel-look accent trim, and
stainless steel sill plates emphasize the GTO’s sporty nature.
2006 GTOs are very well equipped with a thoughtful package of interior
amenities, including new illuminated steering wheel radio controls. Other
features include:
- Blaupunkt 200-watt audio system with six-disc in-dash CD changer and 10
speakers
- Console with storage compartment, an additional accessory power outlet and
two cupholders
- Air conditioning
- Cruise control
- Rear defogger
- Power door locks with lockout protection
- Programmable keyless entry with laser-etched key for added security
- Eight-way power adjustable driver and front passenger seats with
power-assisted rear seat access feature
- Tilting and telescoping adjustable steering wheel with illuminated
steering wheel radio controls
- Power windows with driver and passenger express-down feature
- Daytime running lamps with automatic headlamp control
- Theft and content deterrent system
- Integrated, multi-function driver information center
An integrated driver information center located below the instrument cluster
includes readouts for average speed, average miles per gallon, trip odometer,
trip time remaining, trip distance remaining, fuel used and instant fuel
mileage. There’s even a stopwatch feature and a user-programmable overspeed
alarm.
When it comes to safety, the GTO delivers with dual frontal air bags and
three-point safety belts in all seating positions. Retractors for front outboard
seating positions have built-in load limiters that allow a controlled amount of
give in the belt, thereby reducing the peak load on the chest during the “ride
down” in a crash. There also are built-in child safety seat anchors.
