Default Wifes looking for a GTO...

She likes the 05+ models, and were specifically looking for the spice red or brazen orange.

If you've seen any around or if you have one and are looking to sell let me know.

Thanks,
Jon

I dont know if spice red is the correct color name. Its the darker burgendy looking color.

She's cool with either M6 or A4.

I was just putting the word out, so if anyone has seen one around a dealer lot or something to let me know where they seen it. Other wise were searching but would like to stay local in Houston. We'd probably go to San Antonio or Dallas for the right car.

call Mike Dodds Autotrends in Alvin. They have 3 GTO's two in red and one in black. I believe only 1 red one was an 06 LS2. I think the black and other red are 04 models.

I'm not very up to date on the GTO stuff, so I have a couple questions.

1. Were Looking at a Brazen Orange 06 GTO. Did the GTO's come with any kind of performance options you could add on top of the Base GTO? I'm thinking no but I just wanted to ask.
2. Any appearance options available?

Thanks,
Jon

1. Is it a option to have the color matching seats or is that only available with certain colors? I noticed most have color matching gauges, and stitching on the shifter.

Yes. The wifes pretty set on Brazen orange or spice red. So if the one your talking about is Torrid Red then she'll probably pass.

Yes, the spice red is more burgundy.
