The GTO has strong acceleration and is a well balanced vehicle. Steering is nutural and the seats are supportive during spirited driving. The traction control system was inoperative when the vehicle was delivered. Took a week to repair.

If you like Toyota/Nissan or Honda DO NOT buy this vehicle. I had 3 problems with my GTO at only 1300 mies. One and two were with the LSD/Differential making a whining noise, plus when you shift it occasionally, it will make a knocking sound. Three, had to do with the clutch sticking a lot. The LSD/Diff problem apparentally has been around since the Camaro/Firebird days and now affects the GTO too. To have those problems with it at only 1300 miles and for the LSD/Diff problem to have been around in GM for over 10 yrs. It just shows to me that GM has a very poor quality control program. The end result is, I will never buy an American car again.

I have had the car for a little under 2 months now and have had no major problems. There is on fit/finish issue with the interior and the controls for the A/C seem really cheap for a car costing almost $35,000. The only other complaint would be ingress/egress to the rear seats, once your back there it is really comfortable, the hard part is getting into the back to begin with. Also, the power seats work great but they move REALLY slow. Also a compass/temp display in the rearview mirror would be nice, I had an 03 Vue that had one and it cost $10,000. less than my GTO.
It's a great car

I test drove the new GT Mustangs then decided to give the GTO a shot. Wow.. what a car. The quality of workmanship from the quality paint job to the stitching on the shifter boot and all points in between makes this a superior vehicle. The suspension is tight and handling on windy back roads is excellant. You will feel any rough conditions due to the stiff suspension. Breaking distance is good and acceleration through the gears is awsome. The Blaupunkt sound system is is top notch. The only negatives I have are the wheels are just so so..I'm definately going to upgrade them and the trunk space is tiny-- golf clubs bearly fit.
