RE: New RWD line up for GM
come on now think of this
the pontiac cant be slower then our montes.... that would ruin thier whole program it is a legacy car . Then monet carlos are a sporty car but were not ment to be faster then they were from the factory and we dont have the whole it has been gone for a 100 years and brang back so they have to make the GTO shine.
We had one at the show last weekend and yes it was nice but im sorry i think i like the monte better then that one anyway.
It was sharp just not me i guess.
Now the new camaro if they do it like the red one im all for it. the only thing i wish they would do with it is make the rear end look more like the 67-69 that would be great
Or better yet make the same style as it was then and just shrink it to fit the vet plat fourm now that woul be a car!! LOL

RE: New RWD line up for GM
Here is the basic description of the GTO power plant.
The new Monte will not be able to keep up with that monster.
The ’05 GTO packs 400 horsepower (295 kw) – up from 350 horses (261 kw) – and 395 lb.-ft. of torque (546 Nm), up from 365 lb.-ft. (495 Nm). Transmission choices are the same as the ’04 model’s: The Hydra-Matic 4L60-E four-speed automatic is standard and the Tremec six-speed manual is optional. GTO’s more powerful engine should lower the 0-60 time to less than 5 seconds.
The 5.3L V-8 produces 303 horsepower (226 kw) and 323 lb.-ft. (438 Nm) of torque
