Wanted a car that I could daily drive. I got sick of making car payments on something that sat in the garage. The gto will be daily driven except in the snow.

The GTO is okay, the vette was a lot nicer though. Guess a GTO would be better for daily driving in a way. They are sweet in blue, definitely the color for them.

Nice GTO-been a fan for a while now. But I have to ask: why couldn't you drive the 'Vette daily?

Your new GTO is nothing shy of sweetness. The appearance is tasteful and dead on in my book. Love it. They ride real nice and have great street manners. If those numbers are at the wheels (410hp/430tq), power seems right on IMO for that size cam, headers, exhaust and air intake.

Good job!

Agreed!! Not feeling the hood at all but the car looks great and I also fell in love with my friends 06 Goat he brought brand new. I also like the Vette. Speedway white was a rare color! congrats

Both cars look sick. So what do you think now that you've had it?

It's not Speedway White, it's an Arctic White FRC, Speedway White only came on '01 Z06's.
