i know this is an old thread , but its just a car its all marketing and getting people to believe all the BS that comes out of the marketing Execs at GM.

GM is looking for somthing they can charge 35 40 50000$ w/e they are charging for the GTO so that they can make up for the loss of revenue over the past years, and its shitty they have there vehicles made overseas or what not but its from a business stand point would you rather go broke or fire some people so you can live the good life its the people at the top that decide that fate of people at the bottom always has been always will be, thats the way the world works, and when you ahve a couple million investors and the whole world watching you gotta keep the investors happy.

Yea they do. I know they are made in Aus but I still like them. You should check out the rest of the Holden line-up. The Ute is pretty interesting, kinda amodern day el-camino. And definitly check out the Holden Efijy. That car is amazing.

The new GTO i like it is a little to similar to the look of a grand prix just with a different body kit, and i wouldnt mind driving one but its not gonna happen anytime soon, i actually got a glipse at the new not the charger damn the uhhh... Challenger i think Chrysler came back out with and honestly its a nice looking version for a modern day remake of a classic and the power that they have in that car geez. Some people get carried away with there opinion and go to far, history is important but change is good and the new Gen vehicles there coming out with, some are gonna be horrible looking and pointless and some are gonna be the new classics in a couple of years.
Im done in this thread though i just came across it and read the guys posts whos banned now just to check it out and i ended up putting my two cents in anyways.

Peace...

So what's the deal with all these people all of a sudden saying: "don't buy a GTO...; they're not going to make them after this year!!!"

What does that matter? Does it mean that you don't get a 3-year warranty then, or something? I don't get it.... I am considering picking up a brand-new '05 for $27K and just racing it around until the Camaro comes out....but now I see all these GTOs being sold, and people saying "don't buy one; 2006 is the last year!", so that makes me reluctant. Take a look on AutoTrader, and see how many used '05 GTOs are being sold right now.....it's incredible!

So is there a good reason NOT to purchase one? (Besides the lack of heated seats, heated mirrors, auto-dimming mirrors, navigation, manumatic shifting with A/T, FIVE or SIX gears with A/T, stability control, or MAYBE A SUNROOF? Guess they don't have sunroofs in Aust. because a dingo or kangaroo could just jump right in if it's open...)

True, 2006 is the last of the Aussy built GTO's. It was known since day one that there would be a 3 year run of the Aussy built GTO, that was the deal GM struck with the UAW. It was always planned to have a north American built GTO in MY08 and a 2007 was never planned.

I don't know why people act so surprised when they hear this...

Don't buy one if you don't like power and handling, high gear rubber, comfortable seats and enjoy eating Mustangs or anything else that Goat's like. This car is wicked and not for teenagers, old men, grandma or daddy's little girl. This car is serious business. Go ahead and believe what you hear. The only thing you will see is 6.0. Cheers
