Did someone call? :p
The first thing I'd recommend you do is go on over to LS2GTO.com and read the posts about issues people have with the Goat in the GTO Tech forum

The next step would be to get in one for a test drive.
I'm not sure what you want from this car. Are you a track guy looking for respectable times? Do you want a vehicle with muscle and comfortable interior appointments? I'm fairly certain that you're not considering the GTO for its looks!
I like the fact that my Goat is a sleeper - I generally don't get hassled because it gets mistaken for a Cavalier or G6. When I do get called out, I enjoy the surprise generated by blowing off someone's doors. She's a heavy pig, but also nimble and quick.
I canyon carve, so I REALLY like that it has IRS. The IRS is perfect for slamming around the twisties at high velocity (you didn't hear me say that, Tag). I like this car so much that I will not trade it for a 5th gen 'Maro. Rather, I'll take one of each, please!
I strongly believe that you need to drive one of these beasts to find out if you really want one.
And, really, stay away from the '04s - they've only got the LS1 (poor lil' things)
