Yeah my boss owns an M5, I think he bought it cuz of the prestige. You would never see him take it to the track or get it up to speed. I would still rather pay the price of the GTO 3 times over if it meant the a continued line.

Yeah, gregg is a die hard BMW fan, but hes the kinda guy that takes it to the track.

I would definitely be interested in a BMW if i had that kind of income bracket.

OH yeah, no doubt there. Bimmers are pretty darn fun on the corners. The thing is though, that bimmers, even when going fast don't have the same impact as a growling supercharged, tweeked to the nuts GTO. And thats the whole point right? muscle car = scare women and children. :smt077

last I heard a new 2008 GTO was a GO it's on the new GMX 282. It will have a new 6.2L(LS3) with 430-450hp and a 6.0L(L76) with about 350hp, and the new 6L80E will be the auto tranny. being the fact that this is GM all this could change or has already changed

I love GM, but we have to admit, (i guess some don't) that they have more than unpredictable at the moment. It would be great to see the gto of which you spoke but i won't get my hopes up. The fact is that GM is being run by a bunch of dinosaurs who are not coping with the shift into a network economy. The industrial age is over.
