Tempest Custom just goes to show that Wide-Track makers have a soft spot for people who want Pontiac's brand of styling, roadability, performance and prestige – and want it at a low, low price. Nice people, our Pontiac engineers. They put out this money-saving Tempest Custom without sacrificing any of the important ingredients, like comfort and performance. And they even give you a choice of power plants. Even though the standard engine is the new overhead cam six with 165 hp, you can order all the way up to 285-hp 326-cubic inch V-8, if you so desire.

Forget everything you ever knew about sixes. Except that if you laid out enough Italian lire, you could get one that was bred to take the punishment of an Alpine rally and come up idling. Forget most of that, too, because the new high compression version of our overhead cam six costs so little in comparison it should make European iron hang their cylinder heads in shame. Yet ours will do everything any overhead cam ever tried. It delivers 207 horsepower from premium gas with a 4-barrel Quadrajet carburetor. The camshaft is above the valves. No pushrods. No lifters. Just thousands of rpm. Over six grand with no sweat. It comes in a package that includes heavy-duty front shocks, stabilizer bar, distinctive emblems, and sports striping for 2-door models. You can order it on the LeMans, Tempest Custom, or Tempest to replace the standard 165hp overhead cam six. But you can't get it on the station wagon. At right is a special gussied-up version designed to show off things like the split exhaust manifold and the Quadrajet. Yours will come in Pontiac engine-blue with a chromed air cleaner and that snazzy cam cover.

LeMans is doubtless the most beautiful car you can buy for the money. And it's doubtless the most luxurious and the most nimble, too. For it does its Wide-Tracking with the new overhead cam six engine (standard equipment) and a three-speed fully synchronized transmission (also standard). Or you can order the silky-smooth automatic. The interiors are the kind you'd expect to find in much more expensive cars: things like door-to-door carpeting, and new profile bench seats with free standing armrest in the new four-door hardtop model, and bucket seats in the two-door and convertible models.

GTO is a very special road machine. So special, in fact, we call it the ultimate tiger. (And that's noteworthy considering all Pontiacs are tigers.) It packs a 335-hp, 389-cu. in. V-8 up front, and harnesses the energy with a column-mounted, all-synchro 3-speed transmission, heavy-duty clutch, heavy-duty shocks, springs and stabilizer bar. The engine doesn't really have to attract any more attention than it already does, but our enthusiastic engineering department insisted on dressing it up with chromed rocker covers, low restriction air cleaner, and oil-filler cap. Naturally, Strato bucket seats and carpeting are standard. And so is the sleek pinstriping on the outside. We've even trimmed the beautiful new instrument panel in genuine wood and given you a choice of red-line or whitewall tires at no extra cost. (There's also a 360-hp V-8 available with 3 2-barrel carburetors, plus a whole lot of stuff.) And there's more in the special GTO/2 + 2 catalog. Ask your dealer for it. (Just be sure you're slightly whacky about cars!)

Catalina is in a class by itself. It's the big-selling, swinging Wide-Track tiger that combines luxury, looks. and performance at so low a price you'll have to look twice to believe it. A lot goes into making a car – and Catalina gets more than its share. Sure, other cars are reaching for Catalina's enviable position, but no matter how dolled up they get, they're just not Catalinas.

2+2 from Pontiac ... the wonderful Wide-Track way to go from place to place. Now in its third year, this limited edition, personal performance car has all the get-up-and-go you'd expect when Pontiac goes all out – plus all the room, comfort and appointments of a luxury passenger car. The standard 4-barrel carburetor 421-cubic inch V-8 – topped off with chromed rocker covers and low restriction air cleaner – delivers 338 hp. And it drives a fully-synchronized, floor-mounted, heavy-duty three-speed transmission with a Hurst shifter. Special springs and shocks and a high performance axle ratio are standard, as well as the dashing pin striping which shows off the long, low lines of either the hardtop Coupé or the convertible. Inside door-to-door loop pile nylon blend carpeting and sleek, new bucket seats sweep you up with that go-go-go spirit. Just being in the 2+2 makes you forget the hum-drum, run-on-the-road-type transportation.

Grand Prix proved itself a classic the day it was introduced, four years ago. And since then, many cars have tried to follow in its Wide-Track. Let them try. They just can't seem to capture that perfect combination that makes a GP a Grand Prix. What's the formula? Maybe it's the smart restraint we use in chrome decor. Maybe it's our unbeatable power train options. Maybe it's the feeling you get when you start the engine and slip it into gear, and sense the swift acceleration through the new contoured bucket seats. Or maybe it's just the idea of getting behind the wheel of a Grand Prix and watching the world watch you. Whatever it is, the Grand Prix has just outdone itself again.

Ventura shows you how easy it is to surround yourself with luxury without spending a fortune. Case in point: built on the 121-inch Wide-Track wheelbase, the Ventura offers as its primary inducement an exceptionally luxurious interior plus a lot of trim features you would ordinarily pay more for. The standard engine is the 256-hp V-8 with an all-synchromesh 3-speed. When you order the Turbo Hydra-Matic, it comes teamed with the 290-hp V-8 and an extremely low axle ratio for quiet cruising and maximum economy.

Bonneville has a great reputation for beauty, performance, prestige and quality, but you know in your heart it hasn't rested on its laurels for 1966. In fact, Bonneville comes on stronger than ever – even more beautiful and more luxurious – but still retains that great Wide-Track ride, made even better by its 124-inch wheelbase. Now you ask, how do you improve on a magnificent car like the Bonneville? Look at one. Sit in one. Drive one. See if we haven't done it again!

We deliberately designed the Brougham to be gloriously enticing, but we were really hardly fair; we made the Brougham in three stunning models and, therefore, made it three times as enticing. The luxurious four-door hardtop. The sleek hardtop Coupé and convertible. Beautiful? Beautiful! But, it's inside where the Brougham does most of its high-stepping. It's here where you'll find the features that make the Brougham what it is ... things like plush nylon blend carpeting and sumptuous seating accommodations for up to six people, fully padded instrument panel with walnut inlays, a deluxe steering wheel also trimmed with walnut inserts. and standard equipment such as an electric clock, courtesy lamps, assist grip, and hinged door pulls. Even the doors are specially designed to carry through the look of sheer luxury. Special Wide-Track engineering and Brougham's long wheelbase sweep you along in smooth, hushed comfort. And when the 325-hp V-8 is coup led to the silky-smooth Turbo Matic, acceleration is effortless and cruising's a joy. You really don't need the special emblems to tell the world you drive a Pontiac Brougham. They'll know from the look of supreme satisfaction on your face. The new profile front seat – standard on the convertible and two-door hardtop – gives you all the advantages of a bench seat when the free standing armrest is up. With the armrest down. You're wrapped in the comfort of bucket seats. And the seats are covered with all-new fabrics. These fabrics, available in your choice of some very exquisite colors, are luxurious looking and soft to the touch.
