New GTO???????

[LubeDude]

I never really cared much for the pictures I have seen and never sawone in real life.<br /><br /> UNTILL TODAY!!!!!!!!!! <br /><br />After sitting in it and reallly looking it over, I think Im in Love!<br /><br />Lets see, I was going to buy the wife another car, $15,000 and I was going to buy my sons Chevelle, about $14,000, I could buy the GTO and satisfy both and would only have to insure one car!<br /><br /> GTO site <br /><br />Actually I probably wont, but its a thought!

They are built in Australia by the Holden Corp. GM is building 10,000 of them there. That is all that the UAW will allow.

They're about as exciting as the new dodge charger. Where are the muscle car shoulders?

Re: New GTO???????

The GTO is nice, but a bit too conservative for my tastes.<br /><br />I am really looking forward to the new Camaro.<br /><br />I also really like the Dodge Charger and Challenger.<br /><br />Thanks for Ford, the ponycar still lives and is better than ever.<br /><br />Ken

Re: New GTO???????

I have to say it's not what I would have expected from a US muscle car, if anything it looks a bit European.<br /><br />I do like it.

Re: New GTO???????

When It first apeared I read about them trying it out in a road race, It was beat by a Ford Dually Diesel. Maby in road and track? I cant remember, the magazine was in the Drs. office.<br /> I will admit it was a 750 hp powerstroke. It seems the powerstroke had been modified by a high school auto class (in Las Vegas I think)<br /> But still a mussle car beat by a 1 ton truck? embarrasing

Re: New GTO???????

Even though my wife was in her time quite the hot rodder, I dont think I can turn her loose with 400 HP in a car that size!

Re: New GTO???????

I got my name on the first Camaro my local guys can get their hands on. I love this new era of "American made by Aussies too," muscle cars. Almost bought the Cadillac with the vette engine but my cousin got one so I need more speed. The GTO is great tho, had one in 1968 and it was like hottest street car in town.
