Hi all, I have been reading alot of the posts here and find it very entertaining.
I have a 68 GTO, a 70 GTO, and a 69 Hurst Olds, so I know a little about Muscle Cars.
I was/am totally enthusiastic about the re-intro of the "new" goat. A friend of mine bought a yellow auto, and he loves the car. (leaves every parking lot sideways)
I somehow take it personally when people keep comparing the 04 to a Cavalier in looks.
I guess what i do not understand is that some of you say you love the stealthyness( is that a word?) of the 04, but then others say they love the attention they get when they pull up at a light( stares, questions ,etc)
maybe both.
Also, It seems that some of you get really offensive when you hear someone trash your 04, and then you trash the New Mustang( or other make).
What pisses me off about the new Mustang is what a great job( my opinion) Ford did on that car, and that GM should have done something similar with the Goat.
Ford is going to sell a sh#tload of those cars, and I dont blame people for buying them.
Chrysler comes up with some really innovative cars like the 300 and the Magnum(again my opinion) and GM drops the Trans Am and the Camaro and comes up with the SSR, a retro PU that is neither fast, cannot be used as a truck, can only carry 2 people, and costs as much as a Vette.
Somethings wrong at the General
You guys/gals with new Goats. I am sure for the most part are happy with your cars, some happier than others, depending on the $$ deal you got, but happy. But i still think, deep down, you wish GM would have done a better job with the styling of "our GTO"
Go ahead and admit it,"The Truth Will Set You Free" :cheers
your response is welcomed
