Hey guys, I am looking into possibly purchasing a gto as my next toy. I was wondering if there was a difference between the 05' and 06' goats? I definitely want the LS2 and they both come equipped with that. Anything I should be looking for when buying?
Thanks
Thanks

ya, i was going from memory. i guess i haven't seen many '05s with 18"s but lots of '06s. they both have problems with strut rub especially with the 18"s plus the drive by wire was glitchy

almost identical. find the best one and get it. the '04s, in case you're interested, are a lot more sleeper (i happen to like that) with a flat hood to match the GT road car that it is and single side exhaust like a BMW. the '04 was also the only one to have the Australian computer that has lean cruise capability. it's nice because as i modded up my car i kept my stock gas highway mileage

Only reason that I would like to go with the 05-06's are because of the LS2 over the LS1....

Will do man. Oddly enough all I am really finding are the 06's which is fine by me. I've found a few with sub 10k miles on them which is also great. They are all around $23000 in price which I guess is about right??
I really am liking the blue color that is almost a dull gray and the spiced red... The spiced red being my favorite. Only problem is they are next to impossible to find with the M6 which is what I am wanting with low miles.
