04 Barbados Blue/Black 6-speed just picked from Dallas. What a great car! If the styling was an issue the interior, fit/finish and power more than over come the sleeper look.

May I ask how much you guys paid? Are the dealers dealing?

disc0monkey · #7 09-06-2004, 08:46 AM

disc0monkey · #8 09-06-2004, 08:48 AM

6t7goat · #9 09-06-2004, 10:58 AM

I got gms pricing on mine. 29k and change plus I got 3500 in rebates plus an additional 1000 for gm employee pricing.

HUMBLER · #10 09-06-2004, 11:56 AM

Same deal, GMS, +4500, +about a grand over what I owed on my trade in. Got GTO poster, mug, chrome brochure and display tent from dealer as well.

It is simply awesome to drive.

disc0monkey · #11 09-07-2004, 02:15 PM

im taking the blue one for a ride, if they give me a good price for my truck i may drive it home

Fbody71ta · #12 09-07-2004, 04:28 PM

I got GMS pricing, less $2000 GMAC, and a club discount. got to $25,900. I also got a chrome brochure, but sounds like Humbler got the holy grail on the extras. I am jealous!

Good luck and get a good deal, we deserve it for every dealer trying to screw us at the beginning!

Our dealer got three last month and two are gone. I stopped by to look and they were all autos. They got another black one yesterday so I'm gonna stop by to see if it's a 6 speed.

HUMBLER · #16 09-10-2004, 05:55 PM

I have to laugh, the dealer that I bought mine off is out of stock. However one other dealer still has 4 or 5. This would be the dealer that held out on the 5000 loa the longest in my area.

I'm new to this forum. I had ordered an 05 but got cold feet as I thought the potential cost differential between the 05 and 04 prices seemed to be possibly greater than six grand.
Just took delivery of an 04 red/blk 6 sp. My last GTO was a 65 owned for a while in the early 70's. I'm 57 and sold my 95 Viper a few weeks ago for the GTO. In addition to the costs, the 04 had an engine with a track record,
lower compression, better MPG, and a 2 cu ft bigger trunk. The t-56 tranny is much smoother than the one in the old Viper and I suspect has the improved synchronizers that the 05's will have. So far I'm very pleased and I've owned a lot of sporty cars - from Alpha's to Z-28's.

Welcome!

good job, there's a lot of negative thoughts about the new GTO, but in my opinion i like the subtle looks to keep away cops, and the fact that it looks nice, but then you hit the gas and show whats hiding under the exterior. i want one so bad but i just bought a 2004 ford escape wich is 3/4 paid off. a suggestion for those who want one. if your trading in, look up the blue book value of your vehicle. it should list trade in value and actual value. pick a number in between the two and keep that quote for your tradein value. then email the dealers saying you want your GTO. they will either give you a high cost and a good trade in value or they will give you a low cost and a low trade in value for your car. allways say you got a better estimate from another dealer. if you take the time you can get the low cost + the high trade in price if you are not unreasonable. i can't afford one right now, but so far i've been offered the cheaper cost(26-27,000) plus a HIGH trade in price for my vehicle. just make sure to see what you can do to make your vehicle look its best sound its best and drive straite with less mechanical problems. balance the cost of small repairs with the quality of appearence on your pre owned vehicle

legendzzz · #20 09-18-2004, 03:17 PM

Hey Paul I too am from Long Island and am thinking of 05 or 04?? Where did you get yours from ? The LS2 has a higher compression but is that bad it is the engine of the future right? The 400 HP and scoops is very hard to let go but is it really $6K more? Even as the holidays approach I would think you could still get a great deal on the 05?? Good Luck to all you New Owners I am jealous of your new toy.
