Seems like something is not right with this. Don't quite know what. He or the 2nd owner went to the expense of having a water methanol system installed and it's not in the tune? Why? That seems really odd. And then he mentions the car has it's stock cam, which makes me think the engines internals are stock. Leading me to believe the twin turbo set up has probably stressed out the engine and it's nearing the end of it's life cycle in a few thousand miles. I mean one does not have a twin turbo and never get on it, wonder how many times it's been to the track or pushed really hard. Just my thoughts, could be way off base...

Hi `Greg,
Not everything or everyone is not always what they appear to `be 4-Sure....I think it is wise to be very cautious when purchasing anything in todays world 4-Sure...


Yes, Joey > It's a BAD GTO, but it could really be BAD, but I'm sure that a wise prospective buyer will check it out really good b-4 they sign a check or depart with their cash...
It does look good in pictures > I know that I'd love to test drive it & melt the rear tires (LOL) Thanks 4 sharing `Joey
Yes, a good test `drive (LOL)
