Default Is Anyone Able To Tell What Year This GTO Is?

I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell if this is a 5.7 or 6.0 GTO & what year? I know the 6.0 GTO have the hood scoops on them. But didn't get a chance to see the front of it. Don't know if they have different taillights or whatever? Is there different rear spoilers? Not to big of a fan with the color theme.....

I've seen that car before but I can't remember exactly what year it is. It has dual exhaust like a 6.0, and I can't really see the tail lights but they were different for the 06's. Pictures of that car have been posted up on ls1gto.com many times though.

Wow that is awful. I mean, the car already says "GTO" in like 6 places on the exterior and also on both front seats. Let's put "GTO" in huge letters on the side so there's no doubt.

those are 04-05 tail lights and the 05's had dual exhaust. my guess is an 05 but both details could be changed, just like that paint scheme should be.

I hope it has the windshield banner too so we could be sure it was a GTO. . . It is an '04 or '05. So many people changed their '04 exhaust to the split duals that you can't tell by that and a lot of people don't know that '05s could also come without hood scoops.

Can't tell from that angle. No emblems on the trunk lid.

I saw that car or one just like it (wouldn't think there are 2) on the 5 south bound near Camp Pendleton last year.

Most likely an 05, I'm guessing those are decals on YJ paint and YJ was not an option in 06

But 04's had non-clear coated 17's which is what they look like.

Did you happen to see if the brake calipers where red? Only 05 and 06s had red calipers.

When I had the stock '04 brakes on my car I painted them red.
