Default Pics of a local GTO

I know everyone loves GTOs....lol. But maybe ya'll won't mind looking at this one. Can't remember the exact specs, but it's 430ish rwhp, and HPE S-cam equipped. Wish I had an audio file to share with ya'll....the sound is wonderful. Anyway, here they are, and I hope ya like em.

I love the way the GTOs look. But I think I am the only one that likes them.
