As many others out there, I'm considering an 04 GTO because of the $2k off sticker plus another $2k off for gmac financing. Due to lack of advertising and bland styling, I didn't even know that GM had started selling the GTO until I saw the discounts in the paper. So, I read on the forum that the 05 will have the LS2 engine (good), but hood scoops (will water get into the engine compartment when it rains?). I sold my last sports car a while ago and had my sights set on a 3 year old C5 (as soon as the C6 comes out to drive the C5 prices down). But now I'm thinking that an 04 GTO may be a better solution for me (I wouldn't need a daily driver in the winter), but I always modify my sports cars (mainly, I add hp). I've read that there are several options for upgrading hp on the GTO. I was wondering what the cost for those hp upgrades would be. I probably wouldn't spend more than $5k - what would that get me? I'm figuring that not all the Corvette LS1 upgrades would fit in the GTO, so I'm wondering what $5k of GTO upgrades would get?
Thanks.
Thanks.
