Welcome to the board. To bad about the Camaro.
I cut my teeth on a 64 GTO that had the Royal Bobcat kit. My brother had the car and when he went to Nam I got to drive it until he got back. I also had a 68 GTO. 5 of my buds had goats also. This was in the day. My one friend Randy had a 70 Judge. Randy also had 2 65 GTO's a red one and a blue one. His brother Bob had a 64 GTO that was a rust bucket but it had a L88 out of a Vette. That car was so ugly but it was so fast. I was riding with him on Gratiot one night and a guy with a 440 6 pac GTX with his very hot looking girl friend pulled up next to us at a light. Bob yelled over at him and ask if he wanted to race for a $100.00. The guy said he was affraid something would fall off Bob's rust bucket. Bob told the guy that he would but up $100.00 and if the guy lost his girl friend had to ride with us for the night. The light changed and it was on. When bob hit second gear we were about 2 cars up. by the time Bob shifted to 3rd he was about 5 or 6 cars up. When we pulled up to the next light the guys girlfirend was laughing like crazy. Bob told him it was ok his girl friend didn't have to ride with us but not to be so cockey next time. It was alot more fun back then as there were no ricers and nobody drove trucks. Everyone had a muscle car back them. Not to say I don't have fun with the guys and gals here.
Again welcome to the board.

I was told they will be in our dealerships this sept., not just in production. dont everyone forget you can get them w/the 6 speed or the auto, thank god. they will be somewhat limited the first year, so dont exp. to see them on the lots for too long. I also cant wait to see/drive them.

Your 65 Goat is a piece of muscle car history. The new GTO is just a re-hashed car from Australia that bears a disturbing resemblance to a Grand Am/Prix. Keep the money, and spend it on your goat.
