The 1967 was essentially a carryover in terms of styling, but there were differences. The plastic grille insert was replaced by a chrome wire mesh design. The rear taillight panel treatment was new using four horizontal slots per side. The side profile was the same as in 1966, however the rocker panel molding was much larger and incorporated the familiar GTO 6.5 litre crest.  GTO emblems were located on the grille, deck lid and on each rear fender.

In the interior, vinyl was used to simulate wood on the dash. The appearance of the 1967 dash panel was the same, however, it was not interchangeable with the 1966 unit. 

Radio availability was complemented with a Stereo 8-Track player. It was mounted under the dash beneath the radio. Other interior changes included a different seat pattern which comprised of three sets of three ribs. This was complemented by matching horizontal ribs on the door panels. A front notch-back bench seat was optional. 

Steering wheel design was changed as well. The standard wheel was a three-spoker which incorporated the horn buttons on the spokes. The center ornament had the Pontiac crest and "Energy Absorbing" to let the driver know that the 1967 GTO came with an energy absorbing steering column. The optional Custom Sport Steering wheel, also a three-spoke design, was smaller in diameter than the 1966 unit and had a larger hub.

In addition the Hurst floor shifters used on manual transmission there was the Hurst Dual Gate shifter which allowed the driver to shift through the gears, for use on GTOs equipped with the new 3-speed Turbo Hydramatic automatic transmission. The Turbo Hydramatic replaced the two-speed Powerglide automatic.

Four engines were available in 1967. The standard GTO engine displaced 400 cubic inches and was rated at 335hp. A no-cost option was the Economy 255hp 400 c.i. V-8 which came with a two-barrel carburetor and a 8.6:1 compression ratio. Optional were two more 400 c.i. V-8s both rated at 360hp.  The 400 HO used a single four-barrel Rochester carburetor, an open-element air cleaner, free-flowing exhaust manifolds and a camshaft that had more duration.  Lift on all Pontiac cams except the RAIV was in the .400 - .414 range, all low-lift.

The 400 Ram Air used the HO's open-element air cleaner but also included were all the parts necessary to make the stock non-functional hood scoop functional.  The air pan and open scoop were shipped in the trunk for the dealer to install.

It is rumored that a small number of Tri-Power engines were built and installed on early 1967 GTOs before the GM corporate ban on multiple carburetion took effect but so far no one has confirmed weather this actually took place.

Engines destined for California got an the Air Injection Reactor emission (AIR) system which consisted primarily of an air pump and related hardware. These engines came with a black snorkel air cleaner that had a chrome lid.

Dual exhausts were standard on all GTOs; Manual transmission equipped cars have 2.25" tailpipes while those equipped with the Turbo Hydramatic automatic got two inch pipes and 22 inch long resonators.

The braking system was upgraded in 1967. A dual master cylinder Federally mandated, was used on all GTOs. The standard drum brake still measured 9.5" but for the first time, power front disc brakes, measuring 11.5" were optionally available.

An additional styled steel wheel became available in 1967, the Rally II five-spoke wheel. These were painted gray with the raised portion on each spoke painted argent, with a red center cap. The Rally II wheel used on cars with the optional disc brakes had a different offset to clear the disc brake caliper. In addition, the Rally I wheel was still available, unchanged from 1966.  Three wheel cover designs were also available.
