i know my fucking cars.

in the late 60’s when the grand prix and the GTO looked alike, they were both high performance cars with very similar drivetrains, power outputs, and the like. The new GTO and the new Grand Prix couldnt be more different. RWD V8 6 speed vs V6 FWD cant even get one with a stick.

The Grand Prix is now a watered down, no performance having commuter car and styling their revival of a legend to look like the coupe version of this steaming pile when they could have just as easliy made it look fucking sweet makes me angry.

and this has what to do with what?

sorry bub.

2005 Grand Prix GXP. 5.3L V8 FWD 303hp. What was that for no performance having again?

If you knew your cars, you’d know this :slight_smile:

P.S. it runs the 1/4mi in 13.8 too

figure it out

No, the problem is that i couldnt give less of a fuck what engine comes in the high end 05 Grand Prix. The bottom line is that 99% of them are commuter cars. But you’re gonna justify the horridness of you new cars looks to the death, i need to get to bed so Im gonna end this now. Just remember, deep down, you know you’re driving a RWD V8 Grand Prix.

too much :shaggy:

Back in the 60s and 70s the GTO was sold in Australia as the Monaro.

still is, lol

back then it wasnt a GP it was a tempest, tempest isnt made anymore

why all the hate for the GP, its a not bad looking car. I agree the gto should look unique BUT it could look a lot worse than a GP. As for ugly slow commuter car i think the GTP owners would have something to say about that.

Mine aren’t race cars but they’re fun to drive while commuting. So… call them whatever fits right for a title.

hahaha, nice subtraction numbnuts :ugh2:

Okay, so you should have no problem coming out to the track and shutting me up tuesday night? :hitit:

If that thing runs a 12.9 stock, then you may see me purchasing one in the near future. :sex:

:eek4:

lol 50hp doesn’t = almost 1.5seconds

i’m not surprised the gto is the greatest gm car ever built.

:owned: :doh:
