Having owned an 01 C5 Coupe and an 02 C5 Z06, I am a big fan of the LSX GM engine family.
I recently sold my Vette in the interest of practicality - and was planning to replace it with a C6 after I pay off my newly purchased 99 Accord daily driver. This way I figured I have daily beater and weekend toy. I like to autocross, drag race - so the C6 is a natural.
However, I am beginning to rethink my plan and instead scrap the Accord in favor of a combo daily driver/weekend toy. I need at least a 4 seater, as I am in outside sales and have a 9 year old. Ala - The GTO.
The GTO has a ton of refinement for the price point. I was disappointed in the lack of a Moonroof and some small niceties like an Auto-Dimming mirror and Xenon Headlights. I was impressed with the 04, but feel the 05 with the upcoming LS2 will be much more desireable long term. And for those modaholics, I was to the point of stabbing an LS6 camshaft in my 01 C5 (I had one in my hands), but sold it and just bought a Z06 instead. I know an 04 GTO can be modded, but I think the LS2 will be oh-so-sweet.
So, any input on the 05 being available with a Moonroof?
