I gave this boy a paragraph and not even an acknowledgment.

The Challenger has similar stock power and is like 400lbs heavier at least. Someone missed a shift or that Challenger is tweaked.

Nevermind I forgot how fucking heavy the GTO was. Damn near as fat as the Dodge.

I know but the loss should have been worse. Didn't notice the late reaction at tree.

This makes me want to run my vette one time at this place just over the line in Alabama. I've got a tune and a CAI for Christmas. WHP is up to 367 now.

You probably know the GTO's were all rebadged cars from GM's Australian Holden division. They are generally well built cars, but did have a few issues. IIRC a particular batch had shock failure that showed up quickly after they were purchased so ask if the car you're looking at was one of those that got dealer replacement shocks. Check the paint. Some had paint issues and may have had to get partial repaints already so you want to make sure the matching was done well.

Definitely look for a one owner. I used to read a GTO board back in '05 and '06 and many of those guys really babied their cars. Find one of those types and it should be in fine shape mechanically. When looking at them check to see if the owner installed a oil catch can as oil loss can be an issue and the addition of a well done catch can will keep your oil level good. In generally eyeball any DIY mods really carefully. Some guys may have done excellent jobs on mods, others not so much. You will find cars that are no longer stock so watch for that.

sorry your one helpful post was overshaowed by all the other ones
thanks and i will definately do that when I go to look at cars

All the GTO's I see up in New England are only driven in the summer months and in great shape.

told ya

beauty, brains, knows her way around a torque wrench, fills up a thong as good as anyone i've ever seen, and the girl/girl encounter story. . .jeezuz. . .sometimes i wonder if she's real or just a figment of my imagination

The references to obscure 80's movies and the knowledge of cars has convinced me that RW is a middle-aged man like me using fake pics and stats in order to be the perfect fantasy girl for a middle-aged man (like me).
