The GTO looks like crap, is moderately fast but is fun to drive. As for the original post, any car flying up on you like that is going to pass you. You don’t have a chance when they have a running start. It doesn’t necessarily mean it is a fast car.
As for the tool with the 04 GTO with the LS1, he may want to check his HP stats. Only 350 HP in 04.
And again, agreed, thay look like crap. Want to buy a slightly used one ?
