Gota love it. There on ebay already, but nobody really has one yet. Can I be reading this auction correctly? This is an auction for the "right" to buy one. Not an auction for the car, but an auction to be able to pay sticker price for it. The kicker is the bid is over 10K


I am thinking, either these people are nuts, or they didn't read the auction?

A dealer I do business with just told me yesterday that he should receive his in December.

Several months ago he asked me for my opinion on what color and tranny to order.

I told him if I were buying it, I would have him go with Cosmic Purple, but that might be a little "bold" for some people. He decided on Impulse Blue.

He did follow my recommendation for the 6 speed though...

He also told me that the 6 speed cars will not be paying the "gas guzzler" tax, only the automatic cars will.

They'll be calling me when it comes in so that I can properly "break in" the rear tires....

If I were to be in the buying mode, I wouldn't even have to pay full sticker.

I'm thinking I want to wait for the 2005.

I'm with you 68, did anyone read the fine print? Buy at $12,600 above MSRP? These people have to be on drugs, or just stupid like one person on this board, and I won't mention any names.

Danny, there are stupid people everywhere. Like those that think paying MSRP is getting gouged or for a "car that won't sell at all" or for those willing to bid $12K more than sticker for a car that won't sell and will be a failure.

Sounds like when the Vipers were first introduced. Not sure I can say that car has been a failure.

Now now Joe. Styling is subjective

It looks like a lot of the GTO's have been delivered and are hiding out until Wednesday. Unfortunately my dealer doesn't get any until the next load which will appear around the middle of December.
