Maybe, like me, you are really turned off by the pedestrian looks of the
new GTO's? Or that it was produced in Australia, or some other reason.
Only you can answer. But, the reality is, the '04 through '06 GTO's are at
minimum as powerful and possibly more so than those of the '60s and
'70s. Given, factory reported HP was suspect during the late '60s and
early '70s, but here are the numbers as delivered stock...
'64 - 325 HP
'65 - 335 HP
'66 - 360 HP
'67 - 360 HP
'68 - 350 HP
'69 - 370 HP
'70 - 360 HP
'71 - '74 were disappointing, below 250 HP
'04 - 350 HP
'05 - 400 HP
'06 - 400 HP
Personally, I think the new GTO looks like crap. It's just a box on wheels.
But, it is as quick as the SRT-6 (maybe more, depending on driver).
