As it is well documented me and the GTO have had our differences .. but I dont think I would trade it for a 5th Gen ... While the Camaro SS may be a little faster I think the GTO is overall a better driving car ..
Thoughts ???

Sounds like someone needs to be reassured
No actually I think my GTO has finally passed the be around test .. When I pay it off next month .. then can start fixing the little thingsQuote:

right .. the whole back seat thing should not happen , but the start switch is a GM thing I heard it on bigger GMC Trucks too ...Quote:

Keep it and when paid off...MOD.

how many unique mods are out there ? some more math is camaro SS = 6.3l = 12s stock = 11s easy modded + new technology and comforts.Quote:

i'm still working on the less-expensive mods on my GTO, mostly because my financial situation changed drastically last year...but there's a LOT to do if you want, everywhere from suspension, bolt-on, induction, head/cam/block, tuning, boosting, custom appearance, etc depending on what you're trying to accomplish...daily driver that turns heads and is competitive, or a 1/4 mile beast, there are lots of options...it mainly is up to personal taste and preference...ask some of the veterans hanging around here, take a look at some of their prized GTOs and see what you think bout which way you wanna go...

one can tell you've never spend any time behind the wheel of a goat. The interior of the Camaro is cheap- seats are uncomfortable & if they are anything like previous Camaros they'll be rattling soon after you purchase one.:kick:Quote:
