My guess is you aren't afraid to mod a car. You've probably modded the heck out of your GT to get it into the low 12's. I'm guessing that because you need to mod a Cobra to get it into the low 12's and a regular 2000 GT is running mid 14's stock. So you've added 200 wheel hp to get to where your at. That's more than just nitrous.

I'm wondering why you are looking at the 04 GTO and not the LS2 powered cars????

Here's why. An LS2 car has the potential to go high 12's stock. Throw some good DR's and drag bags for the IRS and you now have traction. Headers, heads and cam, intake and exhaust and you've now got a car that can easily run low 12's and still be reliable and a daily driver. Throw a 100 shot of nitrous on it and your into the mid 11's. Do the same mods with an 04 LS1 and your squeeking into the 11's.

You will definately enjoy the comfort and refinement of the GTO on the highway. The GTO is probably the best trip car I've ever owned. You can drive a 1000 miles a day and not be tired of being in the car. A definate improvement over your old LT1 Trans Am and your Mustang.
