Default So...I bought a new GTO today

Damn what a nice car.

Bought an 06 Black with Red Interior 6-speed. I traded in my Ex-wifes Hyundai Accent. I went up there to look at the G5's but they made me a deal on the Goat and i couldnt be happier. 3,000 cash back + 1,000 military appreciation cash helped sway the decission. They only had 3 left. 1 silver A4 with black interior, and 2 identical black on red 6-speeds.

Im a happy man...be that slightly broke and happy!

Congratulations. No matter what anyone else says, that color combo is the fastest. Note that I am not prejudiced or anything....................

personaly, i think the red interior only looks good on the red GTO's. I probably wouldnt have bought my PBM if it didnt come with the black leather interior. Im glad you like it. And i feel ya on the "being slightly broke" part.

Love the red interior. Back in 04 I went to the dealership seaking that red interior I saw on the Pontiac site. They only had Charcoal, which was comfortable enough for me to buy.

I believe Onyx Black is what they call the black interior.
