Great fun...for a weekend car..

If you have anywhere from 12 to 20k to spend on a very fun car to drive on weekends and have a blast. But as a daily driver, it drinks gas and SHOULD burn premium if you want the performance when you need it. 350 LS1 can easily achieve over 400 horses with minor mods. Nice low naturally rumble. You will need all new suspension by 15k miles - maybe earlier. Read up on it. Handles well for a legendary straight liner but it's heavy. Tires at come with are 245s with bland 17" wheels. This car has a dorky design that you get used to. Some people justify it as "stealth" or euro. Live with it. They don't make em anymore although I hear they will be reincarnated as a 2011 Caprice.

2000's Muscle Car

This is the best new muscle car I've ever driven. Interior is very comfort- able. The amenities are outstanding. The only bad thing is the gas mileage. You can't tweek it like the old Muscle cars. Saw the new 2005's and the scoops are great, but are they true ram? Reliability of the GTO is great. Only two prob's to speak of. Seats started to make a ratchet noise after 2 months. (No fix yet per Pontiac), and on steering volume controls go up instead of down once in a while. (Can't determine prob). Car is stylish, mean and growls nicely. A head turner of today. The six stick and engine vet pack is perfect! Gotta get one for my mom. (She's a motor head too!)

Great Car to Drive with real muscle

I bought this car in March and have enjoyed every minute of driving it since then. Rebates have dropped the price but I have no regrets. Everyone that sees the car compliments me on it. People have driven up to me to tell me how much they like the car and called out to me, beautiful car, while I was getting gas. The power is great. This takes me back to the feeling of the old muscle cars. Interior is well done. Once you get into the back seats they are as comfortable as the front. GM really did a great job on this car. What a kick it is to drive. I can't wait to go somewhere just so I can drive this car.

I bought my GTO a few months ago and I love it. I have been a hardcore Camaro guy for some years now and I am happy with my change. It runs great and the interior layout is perfect for my taste. For the enthusiast who enjoys working on their own car the GTO has plenty of room under the hood to work. Great car!!!

I recently purchased the GTO. I can't believe the performance that this car puts out. I was originaly looking at Corvettes and BMW's, but when I test drove this car...WOW! Just with the exterior design had a little more punch to it. All and all, awsome car.
