Long Awaited GTO

Sat in my first GTO in 1968 when I was 13 and for my 50th birthday my wife brought me a 2005 Cyclone Grey GTO and surprised me with it. After 37 years I think the wait was worth it. It's a great car, performs magnificently and puts "muscle" back into the car business. A normally aspirated engine void of turbo chargers etc. it gets up and goes. A true pleasure to own and drive. With that said, wonder when someone is going to mess up and stop producing the GTO again!

i've had my gto since july 05 and drive it on weekends and every time i take it out i get more and more impressed with the performance , handling and comfort. it's basically a corvette that you can fit 4 people in comfortably . not to mention with the amount of hp 400 the gas miles is better than the mustang which has 300hp. its really a fun car to drive.

I only want to say that I am 100% satisfied with my 2005 GTO 6.0 liter. I drove alot of performance cars but always came right back to the GTO. Many don't care for it and that's fine. Everyone is entitled to say what they want. I just plan LOVE my GTO.

I bought my 2005 GTO in March 06 . It had sat on the dealer's lot since the previous July. I got it for invoice plus $3500 cash back, plus $600 more than my trade in was worth. I had the intake, entire exhaust, sway bars, and shocks swapped out for high performance replacements, plus had the ECM modified to take out the 140mph governor. What a car!!! It will melt it's rear tires!! Great seats, excellent forward view. Of course, very fast. I had previously owned a beefed up '69 Road Runner (during the early '70's), and a supercharged '94 Camaro Z28 (during the '90's). This car beats them both, hands down. I'm glad it didn't sell well. The dummies don't know what they missed.

This car is nothing but amazing! With it's 400 horses under the hood waiting to go it deffinately has some "get up and go." The best part about the car is nobody has one! I've never seen on the road. It's a sleeper, nobody knows what's under the hood. People point at red lights and ask you about it at the gas station. They recommend premium, so it can be a spendy trip! My buddy had his 2005 GTO up to 156 mph and he said it was still climbing. It handles great around the corners, and is truely a great ride! Don't buy one! So there are less GTO's out there for people to drool on!!!
