What about Cyclone Gray Metallic? Great color and gets a lot of compliments.

Spice Red. Oops, you don't have that as a choice. I would say no to orange since almost every car in production has a version of it.

I love BOM, but seeing it everyday would get old to me. Same for IBM with the blue interior. Its really nice at first but that blue interior would wear on me. I voted Torrid Red with the red interior but if you can get an IBM with the black interior I'd go for that over the TR/red combo.

Well I bought one!!!! 06 Red,Red,18s
Couldn't get Blue, Blue
I test drove BOM, I spent a long time thinking about it the only reason I would have bought the BOM was because of the lower Production but in the end I just like red better. Thanks for all the input I enjoyed reading all the posts.


Hey, are my front tires gonna blow out? that would suck. Just read the strut post today.

The dealership should be able to run the VIN# to see if the struts have been replaced or not. Ours went out at 3K miles on our 2006.

They start making a clunking sound when they begin to fail, especially in reverse.

I live just west of Elgin. I bought the car at Haggerty Pontiac GMC in
Villa Park. They treated me good, had all my facts on price before I went
stood my ground and got my price.

Love the car so far it's a blast to drive.
My coworker has a Charger Daytona and he constantly blew by me in my old car, now he won't give me any play says he dosn't want to lose he licence
I think he's pussing out big time.

My first choice would be Cyclone Gray Metallic, but seeing that it is not a choice, I would pick blue with blue.

Orange is the Best 06 color followed very closely by Spice Red. IMO

I own a BOM, and people constantly tell me how nice it looks (at LEAST once a week). Then they ask me if it's a custom color. The GTO has such subtle lines that a nice bright, unique color like that really helps it stand out like it should. If it's a chick color, then all of those muscle cars in the 60s must have been "chick cars" then! Trust me, when you see it person, especially in the sun, it's a no-brainer.
