Was at the dealership with a friend and was talked into test driving an 06 GTO I really wasn't planning on purchasing one but wow!!!!2 hours later I was home with a brand spanking new Brazen Orange GTO This car is awesome, much faster than the 05 Mustang I just sold, it's hard to believe its only 100 hp more because it seriously feels like twice the power and the interior is way better So far the car has been perfect in every way
Love it

Holden chassis is excellent, great 400HP power with 6 speed and IRS. What else do you need?

After reading some of the other reviews, other purchasers seem to want a luxury car with high performance and 30 MPG. NOT !! The now departing 2006 GTO will be a collector's car soon enough, I'd highly recommend begging, borrowing, or stealing the $$ to buy one. The dealer I bought from in Arizona had TEN GTOs for sale - I had the pick of the litter. Sold at INVOICE $$, this dealer simply wanted to unload his inventory...advantage ME. NO VEHICLE currently made will give you the wide swath of luxury and performance this car will. Just drive one. 400 HP, great driving position and non-descript exterior will keep the idiots wondering what the hell just flew past. BUY ONE.
This car rocks! Period

A lot of these other reviewers who have complaints, don't appreciate the "grown ups" sports car market. We don't want giant wings that look like ironing boards, or exhaust that sounds like it came off the old weedwacker. We want smooth style, power and performance. It's about fluidity, and the new GTO has it nailed. It's fast, yet not rambunctious and noisy like the dodge "hemi" junk, and it rides very nice, it is extremely reliable due to utilizing the time-tested small block chevy. Its just an awesome car anyway you look at it, the price is excellent for what you get too.

The day I received this car all I had was a smile on my face, I love the brazen orange paint, the crazy torque the comfortable seats and the launch oh my god, faster than all the sports cars that I have own, and I had some good ones, and IROC-Z, Mustang GT, Buick Grand National this thing smokes them all I do have some performance parts such as eibach springs, koni shocks, subframe connectors, alum- driveshaft bmr axels and stubs headers, supercharger, comp cam and magnaflow exhaust. But the thing I like the most is that you don't see them all over the road. I'll keep it until the wheels fall off.

What more can you say? 400 HP. Quiet, smooth ride, handles good and can take off like a rocket in a heartbeat. Sure the y could have done more with the appearance but that's what makes this car such a good package. Yeah some people may have bought a bad one and come on here and rip the car, but you'll have that with any model. Take it for a spin, you won't be disappointed. I sure wasn't.

Wonderfull performing handling and looking modern performance car.This car is quiet smooth quik and solid.Im 50 yrs old and this is only my second new car, it takes a lot to get my attention but this car did.I bought it without even test driving it i knew i would not be disapointed and it was better than i expected.I have owned several muscle cars including a 70 chevelle convertible with a 540 bbc in it that i still have.The old cars are great but this 06 GTO is by far the best all around performance car that i have owned.A corvette driveline with a different body on it for under 30k thats hard if not impossible to beat.
Better than the Mustang

Whether driving in the city, on the highway, or on rural roads, you know you're going to have a smooth ride. Waiting at the line of a red light always makes you feel uneasy with all the looks you'll get-ranging from a thumbs up, or another hand gesture. It was raining heavily one day, and I was driving home. Upon turning a 90 degree turn to get on the on ramp of I- 5, the car started to lose traction. Luckily the TC kicked in, and stopped my wheels from spinning giving me the ability to turn out from nearly smacking into a barrier. The car has been great for getting me to school, and the Dragstrip uptown. Only complaints from passengers comes from the 5th man-only 3 passanger seats+driver

I have driven 3 suped up mustangs during the 90's, I have driven many other fast cars as well, this is by far the beefiest damn car I have driven by far, and for $31,500 (my purchase price) who can beat it? I can stay up with all those fancy European sport cars for half the price. The only thing I would change is the exterior styling could be a bit more refined. The interior is gorgeous and comfortable. This is my household's 3rd vehicle, so I don't need to much trunk space, I purchased this to commute to work with on nice days and for performance, period, all without taking out a second mortgage.
You'll be impressed!

The greatest thing is power. First test drive hooked in less than one on ramp to the interstate. Excellent gas mpg 18/23 and with the power you've got this thing is sick. I changed out the stock suspension with the Pedders Street II and the ride quality is about the same but the way it handles through the curves is crazy fun. I cannot tell you how many times I've had looks from people - every stoplight it seems, and even from Lamborghini drivers. If you haven't bought one, and you're still undecided, you better try to find one that has less then 10K on it because once these babies are gone, they'll be talked about years from now, as the car that got away. I've had it for 19 months, 0 shop time.
