True. But the GTO is the only one most of us can afford. It's a nice car, but the styling is rather plain and it isn't selling well. Unlike the mustang; I see them everywhere. GM is missing out on alot of sales by not offering an affordle rwd V8 that appeals to the masses.

The sticker price on my 2002 SS convertible was $39K when it was new.

The sticker price on my 1999 SS was $31K when it was brand new.

The sticker price on my 2002 Firehawk was $34K brand new.

The sticker price on my 1998 Formula was $26K brand new


..... pricing is very similar to the 2004-2006 GTO. Keep in mind that when these f-bodies were brand new, they weren't exactly "affordable" to everyone either. In time, the GTOs and CTS-Vs and such will also be considered cheap.

HAHA my dad always gets upset because no one ever compliments his CTS-V but if he is in his VHO with the stock 20" rims everyone says, " nice truck"

ON TOPIC: I think it would be very hard to sell ls1tech for 8 million.....just my opinion(which may be very very wrong)

you could get a Z28 brand new for $22K if you could find a dealer who didn't have a fully loaded camaro on the lot.

Guys were buying brand new 2004 GTOs for $22K. We bought our brand new 2006 GTO for $28K (sticker $32K). Yes, they discontinued GTOs but there is still a 3-4 month supply of them still sitting on dealer lots across the country. They are awesome deals at $27-28K for everything you get.

-LS2 engine @ 400 hp
-MUCH nicer seats than an f-body
-better handling than an f-body
-power driver AND passenger seat
-digital MPH readout on gauge cluster
-Blaupunkt stereo system is nice
-interior is nicer than my C6 Vette was, probably the nicest of any car at $30K
-smooth ride quality
-better headlights than f-body
-virtually zero blind spots, excellent visibility when driving
-dual exhaust sounds better than f-body
-factory 18" wheel option, never available on f-body
-independent rear suspension
-easier to work on the engine compared to f-body
-power outlet inside center console
-less wind noise, quieter cabin than f-body

Go test drive a new GTO. It might not be as fast as your modified f-body, but they are much nicer built cars inside/out. No question there.

My buddy bought a 2005 GTO and man is that thing nice on the inside. It's like riding in a luxury car with attitude.

BTW Nineball I clicked the link to your garage and HOLY CRAP! You got some sweet rides. I could never own that many nice cars even if I had the money.

I'd never get anywhere because I would never be able to decide which car to drive

Back on the original subject... the domain name ls1tech.com is suggested to be worth $428,890 not the actual website. So tony, if you wanted to, you could sell the name ls1tech.com to some loser and rename it ls1tech.net.... that would **** alot of people off tho.. haha
