GM billed it as the rival to the Mustang Mach1....Not even close. The Mach1 automatic is .4s faster in the quartermile and the 5spd is .2-.3s faster than that. I've seen bone stock Mach's running high 12's at the track.

GTO = 2 Little 2 Late

Not even close uh? Hmmm, who started the bashing in this thread? Wasn't me. I just like to inform the uninformed. Enjoy the article. I know I did.

1/8 Mile 8.459
MPH 79.48
1000' 11.107

1/4 mile 13.320

That's slow for a GTO? LOL. Plug the numbers into a math calculator and let me know what you get out of it. GTO race weight is 3850lbs.

And you obviously don't knwo about LS1's.

LOL, owners seem to love them.

And FYI, that is from an actual owner that can drive not some jackass in a magazine.

Oh,god...Rod, please lock this thread. The "jackasses" in car magazines can drive...They are drivers first and writers second...that is why they get bashed for writing technique all the time. Oh and BTW Mr GTO your being banned because of your attitude, not your opinion about this car. If you aren't here to contribute, you are wasting our bandwidth...This site costs money to run.

Writers second uh? Drivers first? Ever learn how MT tests their cars? I can show you a thread from one of the editors if you want.

I can tell YOU'RE not a writer. Wasting bandwidth? The most users I have ever seen online at one time is about 10. Far from wasting bandwidth.

This is OFF TOPIC right?

This guy is still posting & bashing?
Good god, man, get a life.
My humble opinion, respectfully, sir, is the GTO is just another swollen piece of GM crap.
Now, go away. We don't like the GTO, or you.

Well "nuthin from nuthin equals nuthin"...If you arent contributing, you're still a waste of space on here. It is VERY obvious you are on this board to do nothing but start trouble. Save maybe one or two posts, you are arguing with someone. Waste is still waste. If you have $2000 in your pocket, but it is all in ones, will you crumble up 1 or 2 bills and throw them in the gutter, just because you can afford it ? Of course not. Well that is comparable to what you are asking us to do with your waste of space posts. Off topic or not. You are the red-headed step child who is now getting his hand smacked because we said too many times already to stop touching that, or you'll go blind.

No, I asked questions about my GF's protege and when someone bashes a car I like, I just like to get reasons that actually make sense instead of mindless drivel like what is being spewed here.

Any other "facts" or "english" lessons you want to be schooled on today? Just let me know.
