Default Bobcat 455?

I've been looking mostly at LS1 F-bodies here recently until I decided to see what LS2 Goats were going for around here and came across this.

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

The miles are kinda high-ish and the price is a good bit over what I was looking for, but could this GTO be had for around 12,500? Most of the other GTO's around here have under 50k on them and are going for around 15k-16k when its all said and done with. Also what kinda of gains in 1/4 mile ET's are we looking at with the Bobcat 455 package?

Thanks.

That is actually a decent buy. I really doubt that you can get it for $12,500 unless the current owner is desperate for cash. The car looks clean and already has some upgrades. The mileage is a bit high, but I have seen higher mileage GTOs go for about the same price. Sorry I am not to familiar with the Bobcat 455 package other than SLP claims 455 HP with the mods included in the package. Not to hard to achieve with an LS2. If you're looking for one in your price range, you may want to consider an 04. Doesn't have the 6.0, but you might have better luck finding what you're looking for. Good luck with your search.

I figured it would be a very long shot. But I just thought I'd ask around and see what you guys thought.

Good luck with your search. I for one am very happy with my 05.

thats 455 fwhp. miles are a bit high (but you have to drive long distances to get to places in co), should be able to get for for 13500, maybe a bit less, since it is the off season there

For that car, the first thing I'd do is trash can the Bobcat 455.
