When the warrenty is up service will be costly I would guess and that is the situation you are looking at.
Its a Niche car and will always be more expensive to maintain than lets say a Honda Accord.

In terms of availability, GTO's will be out there in 2-3 years. The chances of finding an 04 with low miles will decrease of course. There are a few of us that put very little miles on our GTO's. Years will still depreciate these beauties though.
Still very possible in your case.
Good luck.

When a car is made the maker has to be sure that there are enough parts for that car for a 10 year length of time for each production year . DAM , you can still get parts for the CHEVETTE or VEGA and they stopped making that car over 20 years ago The LS1 and LS2 motors have plenty of new factory parts in stock and you don't have to worry about not being able to get any.

The only problem I see is if you want a completely stock one because quite a few of them have some type of aftermarket part installed on them. To me getting one that's already modded is a good thing. There are always owners who have simply decided to move on or had other obligations come up that are unloading their GTOs at very reasonable prices. For example, on another forum a guy is getting rid of a 800+ rwhp/1000 rwtq '04 GTO for around $30k with low miles (can't remember exactly how many though). To me that's a great price when you consider all the excellent/professional work that has been done to his car. Yeah no one should try to recoup the cost of mods they put on a car but let's be realistic. You can't expect to get them for free either. Also you can find '05/'06 GTOs around $20K with 20,000 miles or less. In a couple more years that price should drop even lower because these cars aren't going to be collector cars like some in dreamland may think. All I can say is be patient, which you seem to be, and you'll get what you want.
