So I finally got in one of these things and did a test drive.....WOW!
So much tourqe! Such a broad power band as well. So different from my WRX which, though modded fairly well, never has that stomp an go or pull hard in 5th. I have grown so used to the power delivery of a turbocharged system that this is really eye opening. I went with the sales guy and after there was a break in traffic he said "let her run for a bit". We hit 105 before I knew what was happening. Of course he really wanted me to get it. It is the last 04 GTO that they have and they just want it gone. To bad for them that it is yellow or I would have traded the subie right there. Still going to try and hold out for the 05 and see how prices are in aug-sept or so. Although after the drive it just got alot harder.
