Man .. I got to sit in a 2004 GTO this morning at Daytona. It was very nice. GOt my pic taken but waiting to get it emailed to me. Hope to get it soon. Wish I had my cam with me so I could have taken a bunch more pics. The car is beautiful. Very roomy and comphy inside. Dash layout is good and I loved the pedals.

You better be careful around here if you say anything nice about the new GTO. You are sure to get slammed.

Who cares. It's a nice looking car. Just because it doesn't look like a 64 GTO who cares? The new 'vette looks more like a Ferrari than a 53 'vette. At least they didn't treat it like the Malibu. This one has some get up and go.

Shouldn't this be in the 2004 GTO section?

Here's a better alternative to a '53 'Vette
