I was hot on the STI and the Evo, then I drove the Goat. I guess I'm just a sucker for American Muscle. Drive the goat, maybe you'll see. And hell, 26,200 for 400 hp, can't beat that (especially b/c the sti and evo are 30+)

Nice, congrats on the purchase. Not a GTO fan. I don't like the styling (especially since it is a simple re-badged exterior of the Holden). Otherwise, the interior is awesome. An then there is the 400HP LS2... What can I say about that????

Take care of her! And make some videos of you burning up those rears once she's broken in!

For a Holden Monaro VXR its pretty hot. Sorry just the face they copied that car exactly as Holden had it kinda disgraces the GTO nameplate. However they are very hot and a powerful car. If I were you I'd get all holden badges from somebody on ebay and just swap out all the badges just to confuse the hell out of people. Put it this way, you'd be the only kid on the block with a Holden. Nice Car

That's awsome! My car stickered for $25,600, and you got the GTO for $26,600! Grrrr...... Nice ride, someday I'll grow up too, but I like the dark blue one!

Very nice. I wish I could have afforded the Blue one I was looking at before I bought the Cobalt. But then I would be on this website. Enjoy the ride.

I would look into getting the Monaro front clip for it. I think it looks better and it would confuse people even more than the badges.

Thats a good one. Thats what I'm gonna tell people who say "didn't you just get a new car?" I'm already saying "The windhield wipers need to be replaced and the just the start of thing to come" or "the registration was coming up, it was just easier" LOL

WOW I didn't know they made Grand Prix coupes still!, LOL just sh*tting ya. Thats quite a power upgrade, should really give you a kick in the a** now when you step on the peddle and no fwd traction probs. I would have held out for the new Camaro or the Challenger myself, this is the last year for the GTO

I really should have held out for a used GTO. Thats ok though. I like the extra 5-6 mpg.(but im sure i wouldnt mind the extra 200 hp.)
