Pricless:
The GTO is in fact just a single color (primer black; best rattle can paint job that $12.oo at wal-mart can buy)
With out getting too much into the GTO (it is ls1tech.com after all, not GTOtech.com) it dynoed in at just over 500 HP and just under 600 TQ (The motor was built for low end torque) and the power band is a FLAT line
3500rpm = 572 tq
4500rpm = 572 tq
5500rpm = 564 tq (redline)
I try not to think about it much but I have over 10k in just the motor. Custom made pistons arnt cheap. The car has a been on a diet. It now tips the scales at about 3000 with me in it! Lota' fiberglass, aluminum, lexan, and anything that doesnt need to be in it, isnt.
Being able to smoke the tires at 55 when pulling onto the freeway: Pricless

Ok since we are slightly talking old muscle here I'm going to chime in with the car I've always wanted. A '67 Impala SS. I was about 12 hours to short in getting one a few years back. What sucks is the guy that bought wrecked it pretty bad a few weeks later.
