Why does everyone around here mock the gto? I have seen m6 ls1 gto's hitting low 13's 13.3 or so in the 1/4 and ls2 goats hitting 13.00. Seems like respectable times to me. IMHO, many inexperienced drivers buy these (manuals) and can't launch them worth a ****. This is the main cause of the horrible times many gto;s have seen. Any thoughts?

Sure...here's my thought. They're ugly as sin. They look like a half eaten apple. Like a bigger, heavier, more powerful rear drive Cavalier. But that's just my opinion. Don't get me wrong I like high end F-bodies, vettes, old musclecars, rear drive rice,Stangs of course,but to me the designers of the GTO dropped their pants and stepped on their dicks with that one, fast or not. Just my two cents...

I love GTOs. Take a LS2 M6 GTO with some LCAs and a good set of DRs, and you all in the mid 12s. They tried to mix a good ride with the 400hp and they ended up with car that sucks on the launch. Easy fix, none the less.
Its a 400hp rear drive cavalier. I think its pretty unfair to call it a goat. And like qatar said, those are respectable times for a 300hp car not 400. I really like the ass sag look they have, like they have trunks full of cement (or something of a similar weight).[sm=pcwhack.gif]

I personally LOVE GTO's. I love their clean, understated looks, and their interior is one of the nicest you will ever see in ANY GM car. They're good all around cars. Pretty good mileage. Decent handling. And tons of aftermarket support. I really don't see what there is to dislike about them, apart from possibly styling, which is subjective anyway.....

Well said bro. Subjective is right. Some guys say my notch is the ugliest bodystyle ever while others praise them. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and beauty, second only mostly to performance is what puts different asses in different seats. For me the goat is just a little too...rotund. But again that's just me .
