New GTO

not the 6.0liter, but i raced my friends goat the other night from a 35 mph roll. off the start i immediatly jumped about a half car on him. streched out second gear and by the time i hit third we were even and he just kept going. needless to say by the time we shut them down around 100mph he was about a car ahead.

I think they could have put a bit more thought into the exterior styling of the GTO.

There's nothing that really seperates it from the GA and GP.


I haven't raced one yet but I will as soon as I get the chance.

Maybe not on the outside... but under the hood there is, and that's what I was lookin at!

I test drove a GTO and a Red Line on the same night, back to back and if the dealer didn't try to screw us so bad on our trade-in, there would be a GTO in the garage instead of the Red Line. That's OK, I'm still thinking an 05 in the fall when the rebates come around again and this time there is more HP and little stylin' upgrades. I thought the car was lacking in the looks dept at first, too. The more I see them on the road, the more I like them.

I was toying with oneo n the freeway yesterday. I passed him and gave him a big shit eating grin, then he kept trying to ditch me, I could see him jerking his head up every other second to see if I was still back there (he tried to run about 6 times up to 120), then we got stuck in traffic and I pulled up beside him, and he wouldn't even look over.
