Well, supposedly GM is bringing over the 4-door version of the Monaro - the Commodore as a Pontiac "G8". So, even if you don't get your LS2 GTO, you can wait 'til that comes out, and basically have a 4 door one instead.

Well a 12.9 quarter mile stock isn't too bad. No my GTO (probably shouldn't have mentioned I that I have one) doesn't run stock 12.9s. Hell my GTO will more then likely never see a track, But on DRs they can run 12.9 stock.

As for the comment on the G8 its supposed to get some 6.2L 362hp engine instead of the LS2 which is being retired.

GM just brought out the C6 with the LS2, why are they retiring it?

TurboLX · May 5th, 2007, 01:41 AM

because its not bringing in the money they expected

your missuse of the word(s) they're, there, and their is terrible. the propper way for what you said is "I heard that they are not as fast as you would think."

im just givin ya a hard time though, cuz i dont watch my spelling most of the time, but i do know the propper usage of the words, they're, there, and their.

If you want to be technical it should say

words: they are, their and there

Contraction of they are: they're

:wink

They're discontinuing the C6 vette then? or what? I see those fuggers everywhere now. and I cream my pants thinking of all 400 ponies under the hood.

Drgnracin72 · May 5th, 2007, 03:45 AM

they run good. they are a ball to drive also. my uncle has one and its a blast. and the ladies love them!!!

TurboLX · May 5th, 2007, 10:07 AM

this is the internet...NOT ENGLISH CLASS!!! lol

they are discontinuing it to build the new C7 Super Model they have been designing, there gonna use the same motors, LS7 and there doing a Twin Turbo on all C7's but they are un-decided of the idea still

Monark · May 5th, 2007, 11:01 AM

Well there are released pictures of the LS3 which is the engine going into the base C7 430-435hp-ish.

Yeah stangs do feel faster than the GTO. The GTO is fast its just real deceptive. I know the other day I was driving I thought I was doing 50 and I look down and I'm doing a shade above 80. I jumped from a 127hp 170ftlbs car to the GTO so I feel the power perhaps more than someone who has had fast cars before. But after like day 4 I felt it needs to be faster. So it's mod time

With that said I love mustangs, I don't regret getting the GTO, but I need to make sure to get me a stang one of these days.

TurboLX · May 5th, 2007, 11:18 AM

i like the GTO's i was just upset by the power i thought it would have
