I have had my 2006 GTO for all of two days now. I took the day off work to just drive it around. I had a blast with it and plan on having many more days just like today. I recently sold a 1971 Oldsmobile 442 with a slightly built Olds 455. I restored the car and it was my baby. When I found myself in the market for a new car I needed one with power. I found out the Challenger if coming out with a 5.7L and was turned off by the thought of the price for the upgrade when it becomes available. I tested the Mustang GT and the GTO and immediately knew the GTO was the better of the two. Considering where the market is going, the exterior styling could be better, but I still love the looks.
Goat-Tastic!

I love this car. Owned a supercharged Cobalt before this and the power in the GTO is so great over the latter. I have recently added an 80 mm turbo amongst other things and am running at a cool 1011 hp off the dyno. I loved this car stock and love it even more with the additions.

When I went to a quarter mile track near where I live and I heard and saw one of these beautiful sleepers go down the track, I had to have one. Luckily only 2 months later there was a beautiful Cyclone grey one in mint condition ( you could eat off the engine) sitting in my garage. I have loved getting up every morning since knowing that I get to drive it every day. It's powerful, comfortable and the most fun automobile I have ever owned. I cannot stop smiling every time I get behind the wheel. What an awesome car!
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.
I love my little Billy

I bought this car brand new from the dealer in 2007 even though it was a 2006. I love the power, and the looks. I added an aftermarket sunroof (it wasn't an available option). My first time at the drag races in anything worth racing and ran 13 flat in an automatic. Even though I love the car, I would never buy another one. I have had nothing but problems with this one. Current mileage is 14911. Last week a sprag in the transmission went out. A/C broke twice, plastic chromes on console and steering wheel bubble from heat, glove box snapped, makes clicky noises all over that dealership can't fix. Floor mat clips are bad design (replaces 6 times), needs a convertible seat, Blaupunkt stinks!

Just bought mine a few weeks ago. The engine is awesome, with a smooth, broad power band that lets you just drive around everyone else without a fuss. If you really open it up then hang on, because the GTO is FAST. The seats are top rate, the interior is very nice with excellent fit and finish. To me the suspension is a good balance of performance and ride comfort. The exterior is a bit bland, the trunk is small and the back seats are hard to get into, but none of that matters to me. Good hwy gas mileage, but uses fuel at a phenomenal rate if you romp on it around town. The GTO makes a very comfortable daily driver thats a blast to drive if you are into raw power.
