Watched Motor Trend Mon night.....
That new GTO is bad sounding...
350 horse - nice
6 speed is the only option
32k
Intake, Exhaust, some other mods
That thing would rock
13.70's stock
Told my girlfriend about it....
Got her interested - have her buy it
and I can mod it ....
You guys see one yet ?
Pro Stock John saw one here in Chicago

 

I havent seen one in person but I have been interested in them since the concept came out. Maybe one of the local dealers will get one in before long so I can check it out. I read somewhere that it will eventually be offered with an auto but I dont know for sure.

 

I read somewhere that some GTOs might be available with a LS6!

 

on the show - standard was an automatic and option for a stick
bad thing was the auto comes with a gas guzzler tax
the stick does not
but the good thing is the auto was .4+ faster than the stick.....

 

Opps.. I misinterpreted your "6 speed is the only option" statement.

 

was this on speedvision? do they run re-runs of motortrend like later in the week. i saw when it was on car&driver and they talked about the GTO for 10secs.

 

ya, that GTO is badass, i think i migt have to start dipping into the funds...

 

It was on Motor Trend TV - not sure on the rerun
on the web ??
They test drove it and had a 10 min spot on it.
looked and sounded badass

 

Texas Speed & Performance has one, dynoed 291hp/312tq bone stock, it's an auto.

why would the auto get hit with a gas guzzler tax? also why would it be 4 tenths slower???
