LOL, yes come to the GTO side! These cars are freaking great, and you can pick up a used 05 or 06 for a very good price! I paid $24k for my 06, and picked it up in Santa Clarita with only 2400 miles on it!

Just pay the 600-800 to get it done and save lots of headache, heartache, and general pain, Specially if you plan on doing it on your back.

.Instead of paying for labor you can spend that money on more mods .

Considering i've driven both over long periods of time the vette interior has perfect placement, the car hugs you when you get in, and at almost 600lbs lighter and way better aero dynamics and larger tire size the vette can have less power and still pull the crap out of the gto.....
with the vette you can get a digital reading on all computer's sensors on the dash, it has a heads up display and you can manually clear codes while driving.
anyone who has owned a vette will tell you the only advantage the gto has is 2 extra seats.... and the vette has more trunk space.

When was this advice given? Why wasn't I notified sooner? I would also need some good advise on next week's lotto numbers.
