Default ´06 GTO

A friend of mine is buying an ´06 GTO. Which color combination (ext/int) is the best looking in your opinion? Would you prefer a 6-speed or an auto?

Very subjective questions.
I got the Impulse Blue Metallic with Black interior and auto trans, with the 18" rims they only made 115 in 2006. The Spice Red is a nice color also, you can't go wrong with any one of them

I think all the color combos look good, although the best/fastest color (Yellow Jacket) isn't available for '06. He'll save the gas-guzzler tax if he goes with a manual. I prefer shifting myself.

Color choice is subjective, but there are other things to think about.
Does he want to be low-profile and fly under the radar, or does he want heads to turn? Black or silver for a sleeper...the rest of the colors will get you noticed.

Black is extremely high maintenance, shows dirt & swirls easily.
Metallic colors for the most part show swirls easily too.
Silver is your best bet for low maintenance.

My friend just made a deal on a Torrid Red / Black interior with a 6-speed and 18" wheels. Hopefully it will be in Sweden in late April or early May.

Your friend has dyslexia, but has good taste LOL
He will love the car, even with all the speeding tickets.
Congrats and good luck, he will have a blast!
