TALK ME OUT OF BUYING THIS CAR.

[MR. SNIFLES]

SO I'VE BEEN TOYING AROUND WITH BUYING A SPORTS CAR. MY MIDLIFE LIFE CRISIS IS IN FULL SWING RIGHT NOW.

LOOKING AT LIKE 11K TO SPEND UP FRONT. I DON'T MIND ANOTHER 10K IN UPGRADES. I DON'T REALLY DO FOREIGN. BUT ANYWAY I SAW A 09 GTO FOR SALE FOR 9K. 6.2L LS2 MOTOR MANUAL. I AL MOST CUT A CHECK BUT I FIGURE I BETTER DO A LIL HOMEWORK FIRST.

GTOs are fun. However, they stopped making them in 06 (not 09), I think it had two versions, the LS1 5.7l and the LS2 6.0l; there isn't a 6.2l unless it was swapped in. Maybe the Craigslist ad you have is wrong, lol.

My suggestions....

If you want a gto, stay away from the 5.7.

6.0 >>>>>>>>>>5.7

6.0s are like 400hp stock. The speed difference is real. You'll regret the 5.7.

Aftermarket gtos can get scary fast, too. Throttle body, CAI, headers, cams, downpipe, etc. and your looking at at least 500 wrhp.

How old are you? Don't say 30 something, that aint no midlife. You gotta be in your 50's for that.

JUST 32. I'M NOT REALLY IN A MIDLIFE CRISIS. I JUST HAVE ALL THE SYMPTOMS.

I WAS GOING OFF WHAT THE FOR SALE SIGN SAID ABOUT THE CAR. THE 09 SHOULD HAVE BEEN 05. AUTO CORRECT WAS PROBABLY THE REASON FOR THAT. I WONT KNOW ABOUT THE ENGINE UNTIL I SPEAK TO THE OWNER.

why would you buy a make that doesn't even exist anymore? An American car at that. Stick with a Japanese car like a Honda/Acura/Nissan/Infiniti.

BECAUSE I DON'T WANT THE SAME shyt EVERYBODY ELSE HAS. I DON'T REALLY MESS WITH IMPORTED LIKE THAT. I GOT NOTHING AGAINST THEM. THEY JUST AREN'T MY STYLE.

 

[Card Holder]

don't listen to these fools that don't know shyt about cars breh. LS motors are reliable, easy to fix, and fast. there's a reason its the most swapped motor into other platforms out breh. GTOs are Holden monaros from australia they are built much better than the previous Pontiacs. dont buy a 5.7 gto like msims said you'll regret it. just make sure it isn't beat to hell.

As an LS1 owner, like many have said here. Go for that LS2

If you want me to talk you out of it, well aside from the motor there is nothing impressive about the car at all when you consider what other 400hp cars bring to the table.

NOT LOOKING FOR LUXURY. I JUST WANT CHEAP AND FAST OUT OF THE BOX. I'LL PLAY WITH IT LATER ON.

They're ugly, but that's it. I usually walk them at the strip or on the street if they're stock, but my ls1 is built and boosted.

The interiors on GTO's =
The tires are also small as shyt.

Other than that they're solid. I bought a G8GT instead of a GTO, just because of how ugly the goats are.

Built and boosted you say ?

Procharger?
STS Turbo?

Any shots of the work you've done? Not to call you out or anything like that. I'm an LS1 owner too and i'm interested to see what you've done.

Stock 4L60(LS) transmissions are faulty above 400rwhp, they break like eggshells. 6 speeds hold up much better for racing. New GTR's and the like are on another level, not even comparable.



347ci LSX(Forged Internal LS1)
D1SC
Comp Cam 224/228 113
Trickflow Heads
Ported 92mm Fast Intake/Throttle Body
Built 4L60e - 3600rpm Yank Stall
Racetronix 46 Injectors
American Racing Stainless Headers/ Y-Pipe
Magnaflow Cat-Back Exhaust
New Motor Mounts
Bilstein Shocks/BMR Springs
Nitto DR's 17''

Made just over 600rwhp on a Mustang Dyno at Speed Inc last season.

I'll do you one better than some stills, here's a video of me and a buddy's Monte Carlo, Grudge Running at our resident track this past season. His homeboy doubled up when he saw my tires and still I came out with $400


Theres tracks in Joliet(Route 66) and a resident track in Morocco and we go to that one because they aren't as strict.

I'm getting ready to go back out again in a few months with better tires/suspension.
I haven't done shyt to the inside of the car, still stock interior other than safety stuff.

Built and boosted you say ?

Procharger?
STS Turbo?

nikkas down here love em

I find em hideous. I could not look past that. The back seat is also useless. I would pony up and find a Pontiac G8

But that LS2 That alone is worth 9K.
