Keep trolling blind man....

 

LOL, oh come on.

Just admit that you drive a car with grand am lines and everything will be all better.

 

Seriously, what's with the troll? Can't we get a mod in here to ban this retard or what? "Oh hay guys my corvette is better than every car i am mr cool lawls i am an internet cool guy"

Yeah, color me impressed.

 

People like you kill me , your arrogance is pretty damn funny . Your on the wrong board preching status about your Z06 , your car is not special and neither is your cobra ....mmmmmmK . Theres more than a few people with god for bid , lesser cars that will hand you and your ordinary modded Z06 your *** ....myself included

Sorry man , no nut huggers for ya here .....you can move on now

 

Well, the dealers in my area are still crack heads when it comes to the GTO...went to one two days ago that has 40 plus in stock and the guys keep telling me they sell them and yet all you have to do is look at the cars, the stickers (nice and yellow now), and watch the lot for a few weeks and you see they are not moving jack.

I once again thought maybe I will buy one (I still am just not in love with the looks...sorry) and I knew about the rebates etc., I got to talking with them and they hit me with sticker minus 3500 bucks..."hey man, is that a deal or what" was how they acted...I asked them so all you are going to give me is the rebate? They kind of acted sorta "caught" and the manager guy said we don't deal that much on them because they are limited and "we sell them."

I still think the dealers and the price on its own hurt the car...that and the fact we all know the 05 is going to have more hp and the 07 will be a new set up that will probably kill the current one (if the car survives).

JMHO on the matter.

I do feel for the owners of them, people keep going back to the looks and I guess I would get tired of hearing it all the time also if I owned on or liked the way they look...but on the other hand I don't really like the rear of the car. I try to stay away from that aspect. I also am not a fan of metallic black...I would want a regular black myself...ah well.

 

Get a mod in here to ban me? There is all of about 6 people here that have been on this board longer than me. I was here before july 1998. The board crashed at some point and I lost my orginal screen name.

On the other hand we have people that take everything to seriously

As far as someones car being faster, congradulations to them. I have had my share of quick cars, but I really dont care who is faster, just messing around with some people, so lighten up. Sheesh.

I Love the way that Lumina has barely been mentioned since the first page, first post of this thread. The rest has been tooth and nail fighting over the GTO.


To me that proves it a failure. Great car, great step up for pontiac, but its a **** poor excuse for a halo. All you defenders can't shake people posting the grand am comparisons because they are true. Clearly they are different cars, but the GTO utterly fails to excite me about pontiac anymore than any other model.

 

Anyone noticed the sunroof option on the Chevy GTO ??

 

The GTO looks like a Pontiac. Hmmm... Boy, what a crazy, crazy thing.

BMW 7-series shares styling cues with the BMW 5-series... and 3-Series... and 6-Series (which actually looks alot like a GTO as well)

I don't want a used car... And I want a back seat. Thanks.


:Twirls finger in air: OK, Uh... I didicate #7809 or whatever it is to you. :cheers:

See my post in the other thread that the Camaro looks like a Storm. Point is just about ANY car can be said to look somewhat like another.


OK, your previous point... in this very same reply was that you can get a used Z06 for a similar price to a new GTO, and now you are telligng me I can't afford it?!?!

 

Ya, there are at least a few options for Monaro that are not offered on GTO... the sunroof, the electronic temperature control off the top of my head.

 

...Kinda crazy when you consider the "new" GTO looked like a bloated Sunfire coupe. A newly launched $33K performance car shouldn't share it's styling with a ancient, soon-to-disappear economy car that frequently sells for +/- $10K...


The 6-series doesn't look anything like a GTO.

While the GTO is dated and bland, the 6-series is pretty much ugly. The GTO looks like an enlarged Sunfire with a '96 Sebring's front clip. The 6-series seems to be a combination of a Z4-style front end, with a bloated middle section from a next-generation 3-series and a nasty rear end grafted on from the 7-series.

Let's put it another way...

The GTO would have looked great if it had premiered 5 to 10 years ago. The 6-series is just plain ugly, perhaps the least attractive post-Bangle BMW.

They sure have a lot of similarities to me.... the front layout, the rear layout, but especially the profile.

 

the reason i think the GTO failed is because GM has Ruined a great american classic. thats the most ugly thing they have ever built it looks nothing like a GTO! at least they did 2 things right.....Rear wheel drive and a V8. other than that it sucks.

 

So, in your opinion, Aztek is a better looking vehicle?

 

I guess so. Or maybe a Nova/GTO of 73-74 looked like a "real" GTO
