They say that will put you well over 400 horses. Guy at the dealership said A guy did the same mods I said and he can eat a 05 alive now!
It arrives unpainted.

GTO is an interesting car, to bad I"ve never seen one up here in Canada. Actually took me months to figure out what everyone was talking about last year, but i just checked carpoint.com not carpoint.ca
ya we also don't have the EVO8 or whatever it's calledMrJynx

Just kidding, I'm sure it's a blast to drive in a straight line, even with the automatic. Let us know if you end up missing your 8 at all...

Went and built my own '05 (to see what the changes over the '04 were), and noticed this at the bottom of the webpage:
*Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. Tax, title, license, dealer fees, $1,300 gas guzzler tax and optional equipment are extra. Gas guzzler tax is required only with automatic transmission.
:D

I bought My wife a SUV and she still drives the GTO. Ocasionally I drive the SUV cuz it has a trailer hitch and I have a trailer to pick up yard materials etc.., and it used to leave her stranded with the 8.
