There are times you have to go for it. I'm not that far behind you. I'm seriously looking into a black '05 GTO with the Tremec 6 speed but I plan on keeping the GTP. It's used with 5K miles. Gonna trade in the wife's Regal LS.

Don't forget about the AF GTO forum if you can put up with obnoxious guys like RamAirGTO.

Good luck Larry!

Good luck Larry, I wish I could afford one. Don't forget your friends over here, and let us know how you like the GOAT.

Sorry to see you leave Larry! Your knowledge of the Grand Prix was extensive and you have helped many members with their questions. I hope to see you in the GTO forum in the near future. Unfortunately, I can't afford one either but as a mod I have an obligation to keep these Pontiac owners in line! LOL

Thanks guys and also Lynn for putting up with me and Dad when we or should I say he would go off topic...lol

Thats the first place id gone a few months back and really didnt care for some of the ranting that would go on.Since they arent built here in the U.S. and its not a real GTO :screwy:

Ive been a Pontiac/GM person for years and still have my 83 T/A with the ZZ4 and 6 speed (summer car/shows) but I must say the 05 Goat with 6 speed is a blast to drive.

What do you all think about me keeping my blue thyme like I had on the GTP ?Thinking about getting the rear insert from PFYC in the same blue color.Then a set of headers and a Volant CAI....dam mod bug....lol

Mod day in Seattle and its a good picture of the blue insert that id like to add to the Goat

Here is a pic of the Goat at the lot.

I want the sticker! Where can I get it?

GTO looks sharp Larry.

That rhetoric in the GTO forum sounds like RamAirGTO72. BTW - He was recently banned from AF...lol. Good riddens! :lol:

I like the blue Larry, I think you should stick with it on the GTO too. I've seen those lettering kits on E-bay pretty cheap, and you can even get them in reflective so they glow at night when lights shine on them. I've been kicking it around for my car, I just can't decide what color to get. My GT is the same color as your GTP.

I got mine from the www.grandprixstore.com and they are a great quailty sticker's.

Thanks for the comment on the new car.

Its funny,that people that I worked with didnt even notice that I got a new car....they thought I got some new tire's and rims...LOL

Is it me,our does it seem that there seem to be alot of haters of the 04/06 Goats in that fourm ?

The ones I had where Med blue reflective and I think ill go with the same on the GTO

The ones from the grandprix store/PFYC are made by Reflective Concepts and have a lifetime warranty

Great looking car Larry! The reason the folks at work didn't realize you had a new car was the color, both are red and only true car guys would notice the difference.

I think the blue theme will go well with your new ride. Just watch out for those speeding tickets, they can put a crimp in both your wallet as well as your ability to drive!!

It's just a few bad apple die hard GTO guys, mainly with the old Goats. I don't even pay attention to them.

Anyways, here is a pic of the used '05 I'm looking at. It is the only one on the lot with the 6 speed. They have a silver and red but with the automatic. Got the price down to $26K and they will give me $5500 trade-in on a '99 Regal LS. Going to the credit union Monday and see what they say. How does the deal sound?

Sounds like a good deal ! Mine was $27,075 and it was the owner of the dealership's driver and had 2,100 miles.

Just found a nice CAI made by Volant for $249

BIG-L,

Even though I don't know ya too well, I definitely know OF you as I've read through the archives of this forum in search of one answer or another - more often than not, it's found in one of your old posts, so I thank you.

I unexpectedly ran across the website where you bought your reflective lettering, which was something I was still looking for :P

I have the "3800 V6" label on the quarterpanels of my '97 GT, & was wondering if anyone found decals for them as well.

Larry, You bought a fast car. Isn't it more fun to build one?
I'll always remember these two;
