2004 Pontiac GTO

Re: 2004 Pontiac GTO

i get 12-13 in the city but amazingly still get 25-26 on the highway due to that steep 6th gear. 1500 RPM at 65 mph. i test drove a challenger RT it had decent power but it handled TERRIBLE! the SRT has good power but i dont see it handling any better.

now the new mustangs, that is a car i like. light and fast with tons of potential. but when will ford put IRS under the car? a straight rear axle is fine for drag racing but it is limited in its handling, great for drag racing though.

i am damn happy with my car. i do need to get some work done. my clutch cant hold the power and its got a few little probs. i will drive it til the wheels fall off

Re: 2004 Pontiac GTO

the old falcons were badass. the new ones are same as the fusion with a little sheet metal diff. they will offer a turbo 4 in them.

I drive an M3 now and I love the handling.. I couldn't imagine having a car that couldn't handle for shit.

Re: 2004 Pontiac GTO

new boss302 is a great car.

yea...my son works at the GM proving ground...he just was track driving the new camaro ltz (whatever its called) against the 302boss....he said the camaro killed it but he liked the drive and feel of the stang way better!! he told the engineers they should have done the shelby instead of the 302boss....they told him to shut up and drive, lol

Re: 2004 Pontiac GTO

they did a comparison of the boss302 and the shelby. the boss beat it good on the track. and was damn close in the 1/4 mile eventhough it was 70 PH less.

give me a boss and bolt on a whipple
