Nah, me liking it is not going to happen, no matter what kind of horsepower it puts out. Or how many scoops they add to it.

I think the grills look much better but I don't like the bumper much. 350 rw is what most cobras dyno so it should be a good run.

The big deal is when was the last time you saw a GTO with 400hp from the factory? Oh that's right never, until now.

From the factory? The Holden factory. Where they make Holdens. With Chevy motors.

Funny, I thought GM Powertrain made the motors in Canada.
David, is fun being stupid? Just leave this forum so the people who like the cars don't have to listen to your stupidity please. Then again, you are from Alabama. Explains a great deal.

Amen - everytime someone starts a topic on the '04, now the '05 GTO, some infant has to come along and bash the new GTO or start talking about supercharged Rustangs! Grow up guys!

Hahahaha. STFU XD
Seriously, I can't understand why some people get so worked up over the corporate engines. So, it's a 'chevy' because it's based on the smallblock? Well, shoot, you're absolutely right!
Now stop whining. ^___^

Motor trend has the new vette running 12.80s at 112 weighing 3100#. With the extra weight of the gto,it'll still be looking at my taillights. At 12.80s so will the vette. I can't wait for the new lightning, this is going to be fun.

Got me. Geez, I'm feeling bad now.
"David, is fun being stupid?"
Saved a few letters on that zinger I guess.
"Funny, I thought GM Powertrain made the motors in Canada."
Maybe they do. I said nothing about that.
Now my favorite.....
"Then again, you are from Alabama. Explains a great deal."
Coming from an "Internet Super Slueth" that statement means a lot. Another "poser" busted.....

Dave, when you can intelligently debate the GTO, let me know. Try learning something about the car and GM of Today instead of living in the past.
2004 is here, even in Alabama.
