I just wanted to say that I "HAD" a 2005 Black GTO with the red leather interior and I "LOVED" this car. In the winter I would take the car cover off and would start it just to hear the engine roar. I loved that sound!! Thats what I missed about that car. The car had a large back seat. But the exterior was so bland that I had people with no muscle car knowledge ask if it was a sooped up Cavalier!! That did bother me.
I bought the GTO as my first real sports car but I couldn't help the fact that I wanted a real Sports/Muscle car look to go with it. Hence the day I fell in love with the concept Camaro!!
So, March of this year I sold my GTO and the ordered my Camaro in October and got it 6 weeks later November 20!!! My Camaro always gets looks and is pointed at where ever I drive it!! The only thing I would change about my Camaro if I could would be to make more rear seat leg room.................but I really don't expect to have anyone in the back seat!! Unless I am going to Christen it with the wife!
I was also a member of the LS2GTO site and I hated how they always put everyone elses cars down and the GTO as the best thing since sliced toast!! I love most muscle cars for one reason or another and who's car is better or the best is a matter of opinion and personal taste.
I just so happen to LOVE my Camaro but it doesn't mean I don't like the GTO, Challenger or Mustang. I just didn't buy those cars, except for the GTO but I sold it due to my LOVE of the Camaro styling!! We just all need to drive our Muscle Cars and enjoy the fact that we have the freedom of Choice to buy what ever "We" like and want to drive!!
