I've owned my GTO for 5-1/2 years now and it's still the best GM car I've ever owned. Over 86,000 miles on it and still no squeaks or rattles. It hasn't needed anything but minor maintenance. It's still as fun to drive today as it was the day I brought it home.

My 2004 GTO is by far the most refined, comfortable and fun to drive vehicle I have ever owned. It easily surpasses the performance of both the '96 Mustang GT and '98 Camaro Z28 I have owned previously. I do not miss the scary feeling of the rear ends of these cars trying to "kick out" every time a slight road imperfection would be encountered when cornering. The GTO's independent rear suspension (which, along with its motor, it shares with the 2004 Corvette) is a huge improvement over the live axle setup of many other muscle cars, including the '05 Mustang. While the new Mustang may have more flavor in the styling department due to its retro look, I have really come to appreciate the GTO.

Of all the bad things I've read and heard about the styling this car packs a punch. Not to mention the aftermarket parts are a plenty and this car holds alot of power! Love the car, I can't get enough of crusing in it. People dont really know what it is and I get questions a lot. I have no problem showing them what it does and I bet they like the way my back end looks pulling away!

I like the style better than the '99 Camaro I traded. This car looks great in my garage, and goes like a demon on the street. Traction control is almost idiot-proof on wet roads. I will not drive in snow, so it will stay off PA roads until April. I have put 1100 miles on it in the 3 weeks I had to drive it!

I drove a friend's Cadillac CTS-V and immediately decided that I had to have something that was close. I couldn't afford the Cadillac but with incentives and deals the GTO gives me 95% of the performance for 50% of the price. The GTO has excellent comfort and interior style to go with the power and performance. The exterior styling is on the generic side but at least it isn't ticket bait. I grin every time I drive it.
