I haven't gotten a chance to drive a new GTO but I agree with everything I have read, it is great for performance. My wife got an 05 mustang convertible back in April. Its a v-6 which is surprisingly fast. We did the whole power tour with it. I am not much of a ford fan, but they did do a great job with the styling. I think that's Gm's biggest problem, they don't have the styling like the mustang, I mean there is the SSR but its too expensive, and very unpractical in my opinion. just my .02 worth ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ryan Langstraat" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "The Chevelle Mailing List" <Chevelle-list@chevelles.net> Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2005 9:45 PM Subject: [Chevelle-list] (no subject)
