I bought a fbody, and bought a gto. I missed the raw power of the fbody, so I sold the gto and switched back to a fbody. I then just decided to pick up a gto for the dd with some kick. but hands down if you want the true muscle car, i pick the fbody after flip flopping twice and gto for power thats refined

What makes the GTO so much heavier than the F-body? The independent suspension?

I sold my 96 WS6 to get the 89 TTA then the 89 TTA for the 04 GTO. Then I bought back my old WS6

But I'm thinking of selling the WS6 as it really only sits in the garage. Hardtop and M6 with some mods.

I bought a GTO, then bought a 01 SS camaro, sold the camaro, the GTO is the keeper. The camaro was fun, and I liked the T-tops....but they're just shitty build and the interior sucks, and the Fbody was stock and slow to me....it just wasn't that much fun, and it wasn't half the car the GTO is to me. I replaced the SS camaro with a Trailblazer SS, I have a feeling I'll wind up driving that thing into the ground, its an awesome vehicle and its a lot nicer and honestly more fun then the camaro was.

My camaro was mint too....How often do you find a 2001 SS that was left stock and babied and one owner?

I went from 00 Camaro SS to a 05 GTO then switch camps to a SRT8 Charger then back to a 02 WS6 CETA. Hoping to have the best or both worlds real soon when I get the G8 GXP and keep the CETA.

Like I said I plan on so dont have the GTO yet but the plan is to have one at the end of summer. But yes they will both be 6-speedsand the camaro will be getting turned into a street/strip car with the occasional show with my car club also.

Went from an SS to GTO and shes my DD. Way more comfy then SS but miss the ttops. Only thing that I dont like is the insurance. Way more then a Fbody.
